Comments on: Why Do I Oppose Boycotting Carefour? http://chinadigitaltimes.net/2008/04/why-do-i-oppose-boycotting-carefour/ Watching China Politics from Cyberspace Sat, 26 May 2012 16:47:33 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Freedomhttp://chinadigitaltimes.net/2008/04/why-do-i-oppose-boycotting-carefour/#comment-1719 Freedom Mon, 05 May 2008 06:15:36 +0000 http://chinadigitaltimes.net/2008/04/why-do-i-oppose-boycotting-carefour/#comment-1719 The China government is behind the boycott. In the last few days, all the search engines return an illegal search when searching for Carrefour or 家乐福 They just lifted the ban today. Furthermore, why do those "patriots" even buy from a French supermarket anyway? Why didn't they buy from a Chinese owned market? Is it possible that they don't trust their fellow Chinese supermarket owners? Maybe they just want to make sure they are not buying fake baby formulae, fake bean thread, fake Colgate toothpaste, fake vitamins, etc. The China government is behind the boycott.

To begin China in 2008 is not the same as China in 1970. Gone are the day when single man can decide the policy of CCP.

There are more middle class now than back then. better educated middle class are the bulwark against wanton act of the state.

There are no more senile politician that stay too long in the politic instead of retiring . The leadership now have terms and Age limitation.

Plus now 210 million got access to Internet and information and can easily bypass firewall and other filtering system

I can understand the reason why someone that never been outside China find everything wrong in China and everything worked right outside China

But fortunately the young people of China now wake up and found that they should not blindly trust the information from western country instead they should make their own judgement
