A French guy visiting China tested safety by placing his laptop on the table; after thirty minutes, the laptop was still there, safe and sound.
An American blogger found that the package pickup spots on the streets of Shanghai were filled with parcels, unattended but not stolen. If this were in New York or Paris, the packages would disappear within minutes.
Foreign tourists comment, "Feeling very safe in China."

Thank you for sharing! This perspective comparing the safety environment for travel between within China and abroad has been very inspiring to me, especially the extreme case of Italian tourists “taping themselves up” to prevent theft, contrasted with the everyday normality of “unguarded deliveries/packages” on the streets of China. It makes me think that the true essence of a sense of security is a kind of “habitual trust”—when we live in a highly stable social system, we may not even realize how precious this “invisible” safety is, and it is precisely the most valuable public good that a civilized society can offer~

When traveling in Italy, the safety measures you need to take are just like the young lady in the video—using transparent tape to secure your valuables.
