Life in the Ports (9)

VCD and DVD players were fashionable at that time. Some crew members from Southeast Asian countries often bought some DVD players which were labeled made in Japan, they were happy and said to me they were quite cheaper than that in Japan. I would be not surprised if I saw one crew member buy over ten DVD players, their eyes were full of hope, and even gave a thumb to me. Later one of them told me they would sell them to make money when they return home.

One day, I asked a familiar shop owner, "Do the crew members know your DVD players are not from Japan? They are actually made in a small factory which hid in an alley."

"I guess most of them know it; however, the quality of DVD players made in China was really not bad. The technology of making the player is not complicated, we can copy 90% of the parts from the original one made in Japan. " He said it with a nonchalant smile.
“Really?” I moved my eyes onto the DVD players which were full on the shelves, touching on logos which engraved with "Panasonic" and "SONY"(both are famous Japanese electric brands).

From this point, we can see that both legal and illegal products have their own customers, and can give joy and wealth to different people.
Do you think Humans or cigarette smuggling are not the right things?

I personally disagree vehemently, all the activities defined as illegal are from the interest of the government. Why do so many people find their happy life after a risky stowaway; why Marlboro and cars made in Japan can be cheap if without paying tax to customs? We will no need to risk our lives to do these activities without the government.

In the contrast, I believe we'll be living better if all the governments are collapsed. We all want to live in a happy and fair society, human being is the only necessity, and the existence of government is redundant.

Do you think Humans(that) Human smuggling or cigarette smuggling are not the right things?

I added "smuggling" to human for more clarity. I was a bit confused at first since I thought you were asking if Humans weren't right.

Why do so many people find their happy life after a risky stowaway; why can Marlboro and cars made in Japan can be cheap if without paying tax to customs?

In contrast - Used to compare or contrast two ideas. You're not saying that either idea is wrong, you're just comparing them.
On the contrary - You are arguing against an idea. In this case, the idea you introduced previously.
