As one Chinese teacher said, "We've got an American box with Chinese content in it?

But I have a more positive view. I think that cultures are strong and that countries don't need to lose their national identity.

But nowadays, everything happens faster and travels faster. In the past, there were camel trains, ships, and railways.

More than a fifth of all the people in the world now speak some English. Some people believe that there is a kind of "culture attack" from the English language, social media, and McDonald's and Starburks.

The globalization of culture continues on from the globalization of bussiness.

It's true that buying and selling goods in different countries is not new.

In Shanghai, the television show Sesame Street teaches Chinese values and traditions

Companies employ people on one continent to answer telephone calls from customers on different continents.

Let me give you some examples. One day, I am sitting in a coffee shop in London having a cup of Italian espresso serve by an Algerian waiter, listening to American music playing in the background.

How do people feel about globalization? It depends on where they live and how much money they have.

A few days later, I'm walking down a street in Mexico - I'm eating Japanese food and listening to the music of a Filipino band.

In Japan, many people love flamenco. Meanwhile, in Europe, Japanese food is incredibly popular. European girls decorate their hands with henna tattoos. This is the globalization of culture.
