the city of Beichuan suffered heavy damagesthx for your answering, I’m a mainland chinese but I’m not a “commie”...well...I have to say that I’m somewhat disappointed at the gov. here in china...What they concern about is more about ideology but not the people...like this time... right after this kind of tragedy, the Olympic torch rely and celebrating kept on...and rumors say that for fear of “spies” the gov banned foreign rescue teams from entering the country...I don’t even know how stupid they’re gonna be...
the city of Beichuan suffered heavy damagesOK DavFeng,
You made me do it. I had to go check on the liberal democratic site to see what they were saying.
I don’t get around on that site very well because it’s not familiar to me but I did find 2 threads. They are saying about the same as we are. They did complement the Chinese government in providing aid to the people affected unlike Burma (Myanmar) who refuses to help their people. Aside from that it was well wishes and prayers for the Chinese people. Only one person blamed it on global warming.
See, I told you those liberals had a heart! It’s like Tijeras Slim said, ideology does not define sorrow (or something like that).
I understand your feelings about the Olympics. I think it’s because they don’t want for everyone worldwide to cancel their trip because of the tragedy. That’s government, not just China, everywhere. They spent alot of money and they don’t want to lose all their efforts and money spent.

you speak more like a radical in China. I know our gov. had many fault before,some even worse.And surely it will be so now and in future. But I also know if I am the governnor I may do worse.We are a developing country with many difficulty to overcome.Blaming is helpless.It's a huge country with mass amount people of all kinds.Anything bad could happen. As what i know from the history and humanities,autarchy is the best answer to China in this time.A stupid gov. won't make china like now in only fifty years.Think deeply for each side,be tolerant and cogitative. Democracy is good,but not in western type.It's not suitable for china at least now.Maybe another fifty year later.When we are more prepared. “commie” are not the pronoun of devil.They are also some people with good wish to make everyone's life better.Today's China is a choice of histroy.Ask it why and study it.Don't speak before you think,sometimes it makes things worse.Not everything is so simple to make a judgement on it as black or white.
Easy to say.Hard to do.
If you are a mainland Chinese you won’t have no idea of such a fact that yesterday over 150 paratroopers landed on the center of this district to save people, at the same thousands of docters and masses of materials and plenty of money were sent to the edge of the suffering area by the government and the other people spontaneously. And, also, in order to ensue the supply of blood, all the people of this country are denoating blood, such as in my campus, tomorrow there will be a one and I am also going to donate 400cc. The government also help to maintain the stabilization of the consumption index, up to now there is not sign of increase in price on daily articles in the surrounding district of the disaster area. Our premier arrived at that area in just two hnours after the quake to command the rescue.
You call this “do nothing”?
the organization of Olympic have told that to mourn for the dead before the relay and keep it simple. And celebrations? if you have noticed, if there are still that amount of TVs is broadcasting torch relay? quite small now.
This is our attitude towards lives. because above all, life is the first. Mourn for the sufferings.
