Basically everything that's labeled as related to race is really a cultural issue.
The implication was that people who grow up in China have a harder than average time dealing with maps. On this, I will simply state, "no comment."
Back on topic, when I made the map suggestion earlier in this thread, I had already considered the counterargument that gave rise to our current tangent (which I knew was bound to occur). Basically, if you have a map with your destination circled, even if the driver doesn't know how to get there based on the map, he should at least recognize the name of the locale... no different than the name of a hotel written on a business card.
