I would not be the least bit surprised about the Chinese, my friends living there has told me that they are in general very rude, not comparable to Japanese in any way.

However, I would take it with a grain of salt simply because Brits are that high. Maybe old gentlemen are, but Brittish youth are like.. the worst people you can have at the same place when you're touristing. Hooligans. (Of course, I'm talking about regular partying vacations in the middeteranian, not when you go climbing mountains and stuff like that).

The survey is of hoteliers, I guess young people are more likely to stay at hostels than hotels. I was walking through Roppongi once and had some fellow Aussies in front of me, and I felt so ashamed of them. I've never heard Australians being that rude to anyone in Australia. They were also hooligans, they were just shouting in people's faces and being very menacing, because I guess they could. We would call them yobbos.

I do have to agree a little there, the youth are crazy its once they get into their mid-twenties that they calm down a bit. I'm not speaking for all of Britain, but this is what most of the people I know are like, even they goody ones.

This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you! A reason to give French the benefit of the doubt again. And you can say all you want about cultural bias, but I studied French on college because I liked France, and the experience I elucidated really had a huge impact. I guess that just goes to show we are all always ambassadors for our own culture. ( I better try to be a better one online. )
