    Shame on the central government. Hu and Wen needs to come out and apologize. Right now they are still playing ostrich with this whole thing. The CCP has totally ruined ‘Brand China’ with their greed and incompetence.

    Given the string of food safety violations, I think it’s safe to say most people are going to be wary of ‘Brand China’ foods.

    But what about other Chinese products, like, say, appliances? I’m wondering if these incidents will have ramifications for Chinese products more broadly.

    The Chinese people tolerate this, and even think, to avoid talking about it, letting the truth be known.

    In fact, many Chinese people believe that criticizing the CCP is criticizing China itself, an act of treason punishable by a fate worse than death itself.

    The World Bank recently examined 20 of the most severely polluted cities in the world. Sixteen of these cities are located in China, and Linfen City, in Shanxi Province, was cited as the world’s most polluted city.

    Should anyone be surprised?

    The problem for China is reform or rather replacement of the corrupt Communist Party.

    Speaking of which, here at home, we certainly got our fair share of corruption as well to deal with!
