Whether you are living at a socialism, capitalism, communism country, education is an important part of everyone’s life, and education makes intelligent, constructive human races for the future to come. In the United States, we can experience our appreciation to our modern education system existing in this country. We have public school system which for every community residents. Free of charge for registration, free books, and free library, and free transportation for our students. From primary to high school years. This system is so popular around the world. Even the newly socialist countries on Eastern Europe.

In Asia, most countries adopt the 9 years compulsory free education system too, except China. Nominally, China claimed that it has followed the trend of world. They appreciated the education that provided to the students. In reality, free education is not free for majority. From the primary school, students has to pay certain amount of fees to school, in order to gain entrance. Books and uniforms are need to be paid before - handed. From primary schools til high schools, students have to pay every semesters for certain amount of school entrance fees. Is it right? Under this system, they have created great amount of corrupted school teachers. Teachers started taking bribes from parents who want their children to have better treatment than others. Whose children has failing grades, but still pass the final examination by contrary. A family which doesn’t have money needn’t dream to continue better education. This system is totally unfair, and they created a corrupted system in the whole country.

In comparison to other countries, students can’t enjoy the luxury of free education in China. Although free education provides convenience for millions or even billions children in other countries, some might not appreciate this luxury. Some might given up too early, or not to care anymore. This is one of the drawback in free education. Because it is free, you can get it anywhere, they might not appreciate the worthiness of education. While in China, because poor have rougher condition to access the education, once they gain the entrance to schools, they will work harder to appreciate the opportunity. But still, no matter you have richer or poorer, fair education is a must for nation.
