Depraved Chinese women are bringing the country down, says education billionaire
China’s “godfather of English training” has ignited a firestorm of criticism after blaming “depraved” women for declining moral standards.
Michael Yu Minhong, head of the New Oriental Group, who made a fortune helping people with their communication skills, then defended himself against accusations of sexism by saying his point had been “poorly made” and misunderstood.
“Chinese women pick men based on their ability to make money and they don’t care if they are good people. Chinese women’s depravity has led to the fall of the country,” Yu told an education summit in Shanghai on Sunday.
Video clips of his speech were widely shared on Chinese social media, drawing criticism from women from all walks of life.
