[A month or so ago, an Egyptian businessman was interviewed on Charlie Rose (liberal) PBS, and the international businessman said it was impossible for him to penetrate into China (and India was too corrupt).]
 
Too bad for him that Egypt didn't colonize Singapore or India.  Somebody else did.  (And yes, I know Singapore is not China... geographicaly at least  - but...)
 
Tea Anyone?

Commies not getting along?

It would be a shame if the “leaders” of Nam and China were dragged into the streets and hung in the name of freedom.

China has already moved into those islands, I think. There was a lot of anti China protest in Vietnam a while ago about China claiming the islands and putting up structures on some of them. Then it turned out that the VN premier had made some sort of deal with China and that is why VN was not resisting. Folks in VN got very upset. It seems to have brought a tightening of speech control for a while. It was hard to believe that VN would give up its own oil source without a fight.
