It is definitely a huge problem in China.  It happens every day.  But the problem is caused more by China's government and justice system.  People are afraid with good reason that by helping the person in need, they will have to pay the hospital bills for the person or they will get thrown in jail even if they didn't do anything but help someone.  That is what happens much of the time and the people of China know it, so they do nothing.  I do believe that this is what makes it a problem with China as a whole as Spartacus said.  It is the way of the land.  If society is forcing people to do wrong, then the problem is the society, not just the people that did wrong.  This is not to say that other societies don't have problems, but this one stands out because it has a direct effect on human life.  And while we sit here and say that these things are terrible, Chinese people would look at this as just people doing what they need to do because that's what their society tells them.  They don't see it as wrong.  While things like this happen in other countries, the people of those countries would be all over it, saying how it is awful and immoral.  Chinese people would not, as it is what they think they need to do.  That is the difference.
