NEW YORK - Australia and New Zealand shared first place in a first-of-its kind survey ranking 153 nations on the willingness of their citizens to donate time and money to charity.

China ranked near the bottom, barely higher than last-place Madagascar.
The report, released overnight by the British-based Charities Aid Foundation, showed striking variations in charitable behaviour around the world.

For example, it found that only 4 per cent of Lithuanians gave money to charity, compared with 83 per cent of people in Malta; 61 per cent of people in Turkmenistan did volunteer work, compared with 2 per cent of Cambodians.

The overall rankings were a composite of three categories - the percentage of people who donated money, donated time and helped a stranger in the month prior to being surveyed.

Australia and New Zealand topped the index with an average score of 57 per cent, trailed by Canada and Ireland at 56 per cent, and the United States and Switzerland at 55 per cent.

Several of the world's most populous countries were near the bottom of the index - including India in 134th place, Russia in 138th and China in 147th. Only 4 per cent of Chinese people donate their time to charity, and only 6 per cent of Russians donate money, according to the survey.

In the West African nation of Liberia, only 8 per cent of the population give money to charity every month, yet 76 per cent regularly help a stranger - more than any other country.

Overall, among all those surveyed worldwide, 20 per cent volunteered time in the month prior to being interviewed, 30 per cent donated money, and 45 per cent helped a stranger. For the US, the figures were 60 per cent donating money, 39 per cent volunteering time and 65 per cent helping a stranger.

"Many countries at the bottom of the list benefit enormously from US philanthropy," said Susan Saxon-Harrold, CEO of Charities Aid Foundation America. "It's important that Americans continue to build up indigenous philanthropy in countries such as China, Russia and India."

The report was based primarily on data from Gallup's WorldView World Poll, an ongoing research project carried out in 153 countries accounting for 95 per cent of the world's population.

In most countries surveyed, 1,000 questionnaires were completed - in telephone and face-to-face interviews - by a representative sample of individuals living in urban centers. Margins of error ranged from plus or minus 5.3 percentage points in Lithuania to plus or minus 2.6 percentage points in India.

Sinkieland isn't as bad as Chinkland but for a country with such a high per capita income, the ranking of 91 is absolutely atrocious. You guys should be absolutely ashamed of yourselves.

The PAP's behavior simply mirrors the rest of the population.

A nation of money faced twits for sure.

that's impossible! look at the amount of charity shows on tv!

China is a good country and I think the Chinese is still smart after all by not donating their money to unknown charity organisations.

Even as an individual ..we have the right to choose to donate or not.

We also cannot expect the Chinese to donate $ to countries that are more well-off than them

It's not all about money. It's also about time and energy given to assist those in need.

The study also measured two other types of charitable behaviour alongside giving money – volunteering time and helping a stranger. The “World Giving Index” combines the levels of each charitable behaviour to produce a ranking of the most charitable nations in the world.

Not really true. Chinese as a communist country donated alot of their time and resources to the community so that everyone would be more or less equal.

The Chinese laern to fish and they fish for life and refuse to live on hands out. What is poverty to a Chinese cannot compare poverty to an ang moh.

Chinese can live by 2 meals a day with no need to buy canned food make from factory. Poverty doesn't exist in China becos there is no comparison to how one person live from one area to another. What is poverty is not by comparing your house got TVs, Refridgerators, microcwaves, PC or not as long as you can survive a sustainable living by prodcueingyour own houshold needs to suit your life style.

Chinese live in rual areas cultivate land and grow fresh foods enough to feed themselves, better than having a TV for fuck! Got Tv no programmes to watch are useless product to have at home. Got durian trees in back of house give you durians.

Ang Moh in rual area still want to live on canned food produced, TVs and dis washing machine. No money to buy canned food, pay utilties bills of cause become poor people and live in poverty. Ang Moh don't know how to eat fresh food as such don't know how to grow fresh food ans without canned food they die. They live like their dogs which they feed their dogs from canned food too.

Chinese people good at self reliant and refuse charity money not like the Ang Moh and Westerners cuntries must give money to their own poor ang moh so they can buy canned food.

In Australia, Ang Moh spent $1,000 a quarter or $300/ month on electricity bill to burnt their food into brown colour in oven. Chinese used gas cooking using a 9kg LPG gas tank sued for 3 months, every day cooking 3 meals. Refill LPG gas only $19.

So what is charity? and Who needs charity?

UN Protestors Highlight China’s Forced House Eviction Problem

[Chen Xuxing, Forced Eviction Victim]:
“This is a photo of my house. It had 4 floors and was close to 500 square meters.”
Chen Xuxing’s house is gone. A local real estate developer in Wuhan wanted to use his land to build a park, but Mr. Chen didn’t agree. So the company forced him out of him home—and then demolished it.
It’s known as forced eviction, and in China, it’s one of the most serious problems facing the country today. Developers, often working with local officials, have rushed to cash in on a real estate boom. Often, it involves driving residents off desirable land.
Residents have little legal protection—even when companies do illegal things to force them out.

[Chen Xuxing, Forced Eviction Victim]:
“Because we didn’t reach an agreement, three days later they employed thugs to break into my house.”
This is video footage from the surveillance camera on Mr. Chen’s house.
[Chen Xuxing, Forced Eviction Victim]:
“Several dozen people came, thugs came to break down my door…After beating me in the house until my head was bleeding, they pulled me outside to beat me. They said they had taken me outside to beat me so the neighbors could see, and that whoever doesn’t move will end up like this.”
Mr. Chen was hospitalized for two months.
He shot this footage after leaving the hospital. His street is filled with the debris of demolished houses. This couple stands in the ruins of their home—torn down with all their belongings still inside. Other houses are marked with the word “demolish.”
Mr. Chen says the development company was colluding with local officials. When Mr. Chen was attacked, neighbors called the police, but they didn’t show up until the following afternoon. Local authorities also refused to listen to the residents’ protests.
According to the Asia Advocacy Director at Human Rights Watch, this type of corruption is common in China.

More Chinese "charity".

Jiang Yingjie recovers in a Beijing hospital in 2009 after being beat by assailants he said were police trying to evict him from his restaurant, which was forcibly closed and set for demolition.

 

[scoopdreams]

imho, issit 100% of the funds went into the charity organization, we really dunno.
maybe have to deduct the service fee provided by telcom, pay the extra to fill up the seats,
pay the props, distribute sum fund to the performers etc.

frm my point of view, dey always ask the citizens to donate but the celebrities, mp cant donate ah???
is there a law saying only citizens donate, celebrities and mp cant donate?
celebrities put in the hard work, i agreed but cant donate?
mp with such income, cant donate?
correct me wif im wrong.

er... you need to recognize sarcasm on a relaxed day before the long weekend.

White countries are charitable enough to, after having conquered and colonised many countries, help the poor natives of those countries to deny themselves and become cultural whites. They deserve their high ranking. China must learn to be equally charitable in the near future.

 

[Ramseth]

It's just a misleading misrepresentation. Notice all at the top are advanced countries with well organised (and even commercialised) charities. It means more organised charities in that country, not necessarily the number of donors or sums donated.

For example, if you give any sum to NKF, it's documented as a donation. If you help a friend to pay for dialysis directly instead of donating to NKF and telling your friend to go there and apply for assistance, it's not documented as a donation.
