I have lived and worked in several countries in SE Asia, found that politeness is not something your will find in overcrowded cities. But just maybe China takes to a whole new level?

"The government launched a contest ahead of APEC for subway riders to win $10 fare passes for being polite and civilized."

I didn't know this contest , I think the people r the same. Maybe it was better during APEC, but not cuz of the contest, but the APEC Holiday..
