The BRICS grouping, which represents about 30 percent of the world's GDP, is creating buzz around the world. It's a platform not only for economic and political cooperation but also for cultural communication.
CGTN has collected opinions on the five BRICS nations from other countries via Facebook, Twitter and Weibo, to see what people from other countries thought about the BRICS countries.
Brazil is seen by netizens as being cheerful, passionate, energetic, with many beautiful women.
For Russia, the people are righteous, direct, and of course, vodka.
India is seen as being diverse, with a massive population, and family-oriented.
For China, netizens thought of pandas plus a busy lifestyle with rife entrepreneurship.
For South Africa, common words that netizens came up with were "wild, different, and diversity.”
