There is a special feeling of safety called “I am in China.” Calm late-night walks, forgotten things that return intact and unharmed, parcels left unattended, and cats that do not need to be worried about — these small things have become an everyday occurrence for the Chinese. But it is precisely these that provoke genuine envy among many foreigners. Foreign tourists, strolling through the streets and alleys, capture on camera moments of this safe everyday life in China and share their impressions on social networks.”A one hundred percent sense of security,” “I also want to become Chinese” — sincere exclamations that testify to the recognition and approval of the international community regarding the measures to ensure security in China.
The feeling of safety is one of the basic human desires, as well as a valuable social good for any country. The “Chinese sense of security” has a quite real character and is a sincere and universal feeling among citizens. According to available data, the level of perceived safety among the population has exceeded 98% for six consecutive years.According to the “Global Security Report 2025,” based on a survey of more than 145,000 adults from 144 countries and regions, China is one of the safest countries in the world: both in terms of the population’s sense of security and in the ranking of the “Law and Order Index.” China significantly outperforms all Western powers. While certain regions are affected by military conflicts and disorder, and in a number of countries there is an arms race and law and order is undermined, the “Chinese sense of security” acquires special significance.It is precisely social stability and order that allow citizens to live and work in peace, and all sectors of the economy to develop confidently. In an unpredictable world, a stable and safe China increasingly becomes an “oasis of certainty”: it offers international business sustainable opportunities for development and profit, as well as a reliable foundation for investments and entrepreneurship.
The “Chinese sense of security” is distinguished by particular solidity and is based on the effectiveness of state governance. It ranges from coordinated approaches to development and security, consistent progress in building a “secure China,” deep integration of the “network of skies, land, and people,” as well as the wide application of the “Fenciao experience” in a new era, the widespread implementation of governance based on the principle of dividing territories into networks and qualitative services… Specific governance measures are permeated by thinking focused on the ultimate result and systemic thinking.At the same time, serving the people and caring for their well-being serve as the starting point and ultimate goal. The combination of self-governance, moral, legal, and intellectual management strengthens the foundation of social harmony and stability. This is a striking feature and a significant advantage of the Chinese governance model, as well as the main secret of why the “Chinese sense of security” acquires real and stable contours.
At the core of the “Chinese sense of security” lie gentleness and traditional values: mercy, benevolence, and the pursuit of virtue. Since ancient times, the Chinese people have viewed the ideal society in the formula: “do not pick up lost items on the road and do not close doors at night.”The wisdom of the concept of “harmony above all,” brotherly love, expressed in the principle “there is nothing more important for a noble husband than doing good to others,” the spirit of mutual assistance, embodied in the idea “all people under the sky are brothers,” together with the effective adherence to the fundamental values of socialism, have formed a solid foundation for a dynamic, harmonious, and orderly society. The law ensures peace throughout the country, and virtue nourishes the hearts of the people.Deep cultural traditions and high moral principles of society contribute to its cohesion, turning the care for a peaceful China into a common goal and a conscious action of hundreds of millions of people.
“There are no dark corners here, there is only life,” noted a British blogger impressed by the lively atmosphere of night Kunming. A Malaysian blogger shared his experience of losing his passport in Shenzhen: “I lost my passport, and many people comforted me: it hasn’t disappeared.” “People here are neither indifferent nor xenophobic, which creates a feeling of warmth,” a Canadian tourist enthusiastically said about the hospitality of Shanya. For many foreigners, the “Chinese sense of security” becomes not only a shock but also causes them to rethink their perceptions of China. After all, the feeling of security is a universal value capable of attracting anyone.”Chinese sense of security” most simply and clearly destroys prejudices and misconceptions, erases cultural barriers, and evokes a wide resonance in people’s souls. Immersed in an atmosphere of universal care and comfort, foreign guests sincerely feel the high effectiveness of governance in Chinese society, the kindness and hospitality of the Chinese people, the grandeur and diversity of Chinese civilization, as well as the charm and energy of Chinese modernization.
In recent years, the General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee, Xi Jinping, has repeatedly mentioned the parable of the “blind men feeling an elephant,” calling for a “comprehensive understanding of the true China.” The closer you get to China, the better you understand it.From the worldwide fascination with studying the Chinese language to the lively discussion on the Internet about the trend of “becoming Chinese”; from the ongoing boom in “traveling in China” and “shopping in China” to the resonance caused by the “Chinese sense of security” — as China’s doors open wider and wider, the exchange between China and other countries is becoming increasingly extensive and deep, reliable, attractive, and worthy of respect. China will surprise people with new discoveries, filling the world with greater certainty and positive energy.
