Chinese Santa (February 10, 2014, ChinaSource Blog)
To see our Chinese brothers and sisters as true equals, we need to let go of the subtle cultural pride that leads us to look down on our neighbors. In China, we are the cultural outsiders. We are not the arbiters of what is and is not normal. On the contrary, if we want to enter into people's lives, and earn the right to speak meaningfully to their situations, then we need to learn to see through Chinese eyes.

Not surprisingly, the writer highlighted the vast amount of economic activity generated by the holiday. Christmas in China, like anywhere else, is good for business. It puts people in a mood to spend money, gives them plenty of things to spend it on, and rewards the spending with the good feelings that come with giving and receiving gifts.
