Don’t get your hopes up. The harder they try to look good to the world the worse they come off. They just keep sinking lower from where I sit.
BTW, the fireworks were phony too. Surprised?
And, no, I was not surprised the "footprint" fireworks were staged because the pollution was so thick they wouldn't have been seen otherwise. The cute little girl was dubbed, too.
The Chinese have also looked very ham fisted to the media and sponsors, who can't get customers through the security. God forbid some Tibet flag might be unfurled.
The Chinese were play with fireworks long before the ChiCom came along.
