I hate to disappoint you. This "much discussion" happens so often in a local church, between the local churches, and between the churches and the ministry that I am surprised your objection isn't more along the lines of "too much discussion".
You'll need to find some other material to shore up your "Chinese culture" argument.

Have you ever taken time to read the writings of Steve Isitt. There was one in particular titled Hear The Cases. A brother wanted to have discussion, fellowship etc regarding an elder in his locality. They listened, but there was no discussion towards a resolution or a reconciliation.
Depending on an elder or co-worker, there may be discussion regarding an issue to a point, but not to the point of contradicting the blended co-workers. They won't go there.
If there's discussion, it's superficial in nature. Otherwise any discussion suggesting mistakes were made or critical of LSM leadership decisions, most do not want to get started in such talk and prefer to keep everything positive.
