On the other hand , attitude toward people who are trying to follow Chinese tradition is negative , I know that first hand how local people here feel about wannabe Chinese . And about loyalty , what does that mean? If you pay for your lessons how do you owe anything to the instructor , especially when a lot of people are talking that if you are not family member or "close door" student , no matter how much you pay you will never have compete system ? So, follow tradition and be loyal or not?
