Pet Peeve: It seems to me that everyone should add their location to their profile. The site would be a lot more useful and interesting. My 2 cents.
i am in southeast Asia. This bike could be of Taiwan origin. i see alot of these old bikes still going strong, being used by ordinary people everyday to get around.
The newer bikes are mostly from mainland China. I avoided getting these, because they have cheap 6/7 speeds shifters and derailleurs that could break or go misalign very easily in the crowded bike racks.
