Episode overview
The free market economy continues to grow vigorously in China but at the cost of traditional values. In cities, residents feel a sense of indifference to each other as greed and materialism takes over. In a bid to revive ethical behavior and promote good deeds, a new movement called the Good Deeds Banks has emerged. The bank allows members to save up good deeds as if they were deposits with the points they accumulate entitling them to various discounts and services. This episode of Asia Insight follows a Good Deeds Banks founder and its members.
