Yang Zhengming was operating a small stall in the walkway. Yang had not heeded attempts by the municipal management team to dissuade him from taking up space at the Neijia Electronics City, rather choosing to continue to occupy a portion of the market that had been legally ordered to remain clear. Team members subsequently decided to confiscate his merchandise temporarily. That was when the team encountered obstruction vis-a-vis Yang and his wife Liu Xiujiao. It was at that moment that Yang declared, "Whoever so much as touches my merchandise is going to die!" Liu then leaped on the team's car, seizing some merchandise that had already been confiscated. Then the team was surrounded by vendors who began urging everyone present to attack the team's members physically. The ensuing chaos led to the severe beating of a manager working in the market who had previously cooperated with the team. The team's vehicle was also heavily damaged by the angry crowd. There was no way for the SARS control exercise to continue.

Take one step forward, and two steps backward!

I appreciate the ping.

Good post,it shows how "easy" it is to get the people to change their ways when confronted with losing their livelihood.

I saw an article that said China was putting a stop to hunting and dealing in wild game.That will be much easier said than done.

Hope you and yours stay well. :o)
