A Beijing woman calling herself an "old wife" named security a headlining accomplishment of 2001. She said China had protected itself well enough to prevent something like the September 11 terrorist attacks.

This is surely a Chinese superiority complex...

People, spurred by the central Government, often express an angry inferiority complex towards other countries. Many think that because of its rich 5,000-year history, China has long deserved to be number one in sports and economics, but that various factors - such as the people's own lack of modern skills or the evil forces of the West - have held them back.

That about sums it up. They think it is all our fault.

The rest of us think China might have been relatively screwed up (on absolute terms) for most of its 5,000 year history, with only a few pockets of 'success' thrown in here and there. To them though China was all good until some Brits came along... yeah, whatever. The Brits and the CCP only added their name to an already long list...

Their problems are created by the system they have, cutting themselves off from the world, and nuturing ignorant thought about how the rest of the world thinks.

This is surely a Chinese superiority complex..

One first read, I'd agree, but...
In Mainland China, they simply execute Muslim extremists.
I think they dispatched a bunch of them within the last couple of months.
Despite all the bluster about fighting to the death, most Muslims would rather
not test the patience of the Chinese Communists.

(I forget the figure, but there are millions of Muslims in Mainland China...can't remember
the exact name of the region where they are concentrated.

1. ummm...Lack of skills? she said it, not me. 2.yep, those damn western devils. Hmm...seems like she's leaving out the oppression of the Government and the natural feudal tendencies of their own people amongst eachother as well as others.
