[Quora] Is it safe at night in China?

Indeed, China may be one of the safest countries in the world since 2015.

Relying on 'Skyeyes' system and gun ban policy promoted by Chinese government, serious crimes such as robbery, theft, kidnaping are considered high risks but low rewards to criminals in China. Particularly drug trafficking, it means 'moving honors' to the police.

This implies criminals, gang members and drug dealers are unable to operate openly. That's why people feel safe during the night in China now.

All the above was unimaginable 10 years ago.
