BEIJING, June 7 (Xinhua) -- A battle for use of a basketballcourt, between a group of elderly dancers and young basketballplayers, has exposed loopholes in the urban management of Chinesecities.
The debate sparked when a video showing a group of elderlypeople quarreling with several young men went viral on the ChineseInternet. In the video, the senior citizens lashed out at the youngmen over use of the basketball court in a local park. The heatedargument soon broke into a physical fight.
Police confirmed the incident was in Luoyang city, centralChina's Henan Province.
""Some square-dancing elderly and a posse of basketball playershad a quarrel Cheap Real Madrid Jerseys , which broke into a fight, over the use of thebasketball court on May 31,"" local police said. ""They reconciledafter the incident.""
The park later closed the court and provided another area forthe elderly group, but public debate flared nevertheless.
A number of Internet users defended the basketball players,saying that the elderly group crossed the line, not only byoccupying the basketball court but also hitting a young manphysically. Others showed sympathy for the dancers Cheap Paris Saint-Germain Jerseys , saying a lackof areas for square dancing in Chinese cities was a majorissue.
China's population is aging, with the Ministry of Civil Affairssaying that more than 220 million Chinese were over 60 by the endof 2016. The government predicts the country's elderly will accountfor about one-quarter of the population by 2030.
This highlights a rising need for rest and recreation programsamong senior citizens. In China, square dancing has become a majordaily activity among graying Chinese. But as the elderly bust theirmoves, a spate of conflicts has erupted across the nation
In 2014, after failing to reach reconciliation, residents in adistrict in eastern China's Zhejiang Province went toe-to-toe witha group of square dancers Cheap Manchester United Jerseys , by using loudspeakers worth 260,000 yuan(38,266 U.S. dollars) to blast out music day-and-night to drownthem with noise.
A similar incident happened in a district in Fujian Province in2016, causing police to be called.
In 2014, the historic Luxun Park in Shanghai reopened to thepublic after renovation, drawing a large number of elderly dancers.Rival exercise groups tried to snap up dancing squares Cheap Manchester City Jerseys , creatingchaos and fights in the park.
THE FIGHT FOR SQUARES
Annoying noise made by square dancers has created many clashes,but experts say insufficient public space and poor management inChinese cities were to blame.
Yang Hongshan, with the public management school of RenminUniversity, said that public spaces in China were typically builtwith economic considerations, without catering to specific publicneeds.
""When public spaces fail to meet rising demand for rest andrecreation, problems are bound to occur Cheap Liverpool Jerseys ,"" Yang said.
Liu Yaodong, with the public management department of HubeiUniversity of Technology, said that it was necessary forauthorities to make scientific planning for leisure activities whendeveloping cities.
""When designing public spaces, authorities should consider thestatus quo of urban recreational activities,"" Liu said.""Authorities should reserve enough space for the future developmentof recreational activities.""
In September 2015, four central government bodies Cheap Leicester City Jerseys , including theMinistry of Culture, issued a joint circular, asking localgovernments to utilize existing public spaces to accommodate publicleisure activities. It also said that more public cultural venuesand stadiums should open free of charge and that square dancingshould be included in grassroots management systems.
But patchy enforcement has left the circular largely empty talk,according to Tang Lihong, with the law school of FuzhouUniversity.
""Management over public spaces should be more specific, and thatmodern technology such as the Internet can be employed to make themanagement more efficient Cheap Juventus Jerseys ,"" Yang said. ""For example, appointmentsvia the Internet can help distribute human traffic to differentperiods of the day to ease the pressure on public spaces.""
Gu Jun, a sociologist at Shanghai University, said that thegovernment should create local social organizations to managesquare dancing.
""Shanghai has already started piloting such programs, with thegovernment issuing favorable policies to support the founding andoperation of such organizations,"" Gu said. Enditem
