5 Reasons Why Chinese Web Novels Suck

Culture & Society

Stories from a mobile App called WebNovel are promoted everywhere on Facebook, and popular novels featuring Charlie Wade, Caspian Lynch, and other “good-for-nothing son-in-laws” are captivating the interests of unsuspecting readers. WebNovel is a paid app. This means that when you read any story inside the app, you cannot continue reading until you buy points.

Here are the reasons why Chinese web novels suck. They are called “web novels” because these books were initially written for Chinese online platforms and not necessarily written for printed books. 1. Extremely and Unnecessarily Long A r...

The Deafening Silence: Why No Protests Outside Chinese Embassy in Manila?

Government & Politics

In a country where activists and career protesters are known for making their voices heard on various issues, the conspicuous absence of protests outside the Chinese Embassy in Manila regarding the West Philippine Sea issue raises important questions. While streets and public spaces have been filled with dissenting voices on numerous occasions, the apparent silence on a matter as critical as Chinese aggression in the West Philippine Sea demands scrutiny. Money Matters One plausible reason for the absence of protests could be the financial aspect. Street protests often require resources, and without adequate funding, the machinery of dissent may grind to a halt.

Entertainment

If you love reading fiction, chances are, you heard the book “The Charismatic Charlie Wade” (also called “The Amazing Son In Law). If you plan on reading this book, read this article first and you’ll thank me later. I discovered this book promoted on Facebook.
