I know what you are saying Sinned69 and I tend to agree. But since you have access to a PSB official, which I dont, feel free to pass on some of my comments. Being aware of what goes on and doign something about it. Officials, and any true communist, should be DOING something about it.
frenchlover1999i agree with your view 100%, but my 'baba' is a hard working man and has a lot more values and morals that would see him fit well in most foreign arenas. i have developed a certain respect for him, as he (from my view of what i see him work with) is unlike a lot of his colleagues, preferring to do everything the correct way (both morally and ethically) whereas many of his compatriots take other easier options. (im generalising a fair amount) however im mindful there are some others similar to him that share his view, but im not blinded by the facts as you have pointed out. you're right, much is yet to be addressed here. however my post here was simply pointing out that this website could be blocked or forcibly closed if
we don't exercise a certain amount of restraint. the topic of this post really is in poor taste and "could be the straw that breaks the camels back" thats all. ok i that was the point i was trying to make. period.

I've recently had some very informal discussions with some Govt officials who in the context of our social get together expressed concern over behaviour of us laowais
I know what you mean - having been party to informal discussion of my own. I say to hell with 'em.
Sinned, you are a sell-out, and you ought to be ashamed of yourself for being so.

perhaps you should read all of my posts since i joined... if you care to... then make your comment. since you don't know me at all and obviously aren't aware of where my allegiances lay. you're completely wrong, and i am happy to defend myself to the tenth degree. however the subject of my post is about the original posting, not about chinese society at large, the norms, societal behavour, values or belief system nor the apparent hypocrasy within it. that ceratinly fit for another forum topic, but you nor i are not going to change the ways, that we see around us any time soon. that said though doesn't mean im apathetic, as i certainly do my part to instigate change -no matter how small it might be in the greater scheme of things.
also -here is better than some parts of the middle east in many respects... and Edgewood if this place drags you down so, then why stay? no ones forcing you to be here (nor me for that matter) but i chose to be here. i take the good with the bad and do my best to make an effort to see the glass as half full.
