What an oversimplified, partial, unscientific and undetailed piece of crap. The raw information delivered is what I'd call preliminary at best, with the rhetorical honesty of a political poll. Though usually political polls try to at least deliver a hint at their methodology. WHatever, I've got breaking news for ... Full Comment>>

A bit messy and superficial of a comment, in the sense I still don't really know whatever the contents of this book is. I'll get my hands on it and make my own comment, with the purpose to decipher between the lines where the CCP is getting at, more than for getting to know Xi Jinping. I don't expect anything more ...

You know what other country is building toilets ? Thailand - separate toilets for non-Chinese users. That's all you need to know about China’s international image. Full Comment>>

So I take it the Chinese body isn't so different after all. Full Comment>>

So this is what the internet would look like should it have been available in the Middle Age? Shaving head in public, really? Quite amusing from the same aging star who declared condescendingly that Chinese weren't grown up enough for democracy a decade ago. Full Comment>>

The family structure never survives a society of consumerism & individualism. Family is about solidarity, commitment and sacrifice, while the latter is about satisfying any individual need for the right price. Full Comment>>

“we signed this letter because we found that most Chinese people lack an awareness of their rights, especially women.” Their rights? As in legally enforceable by a fair state body? Oh boy I have bad news for you... Full Comment>>

Get your sobs straight and shut up. If you don't get emotional we'll call you heartless. Full Comment>>

The evil Western values' influence know no limits (can this get old?). Full Comment>>

Right before the CNY? Such a perfect timing, this has to be a foreign conspiracy! Western Values have struck again! Darn you, Western Values! Can't wait China to get back to its traditions of... er... something. Full Comment>>

Darn, those evil Western values. Full Comment>>

Here's the saddest part: Wenxuecity, which ECC often uses as a source, is actually a news portal for Chinese expats abroad. So they should actually have insider knowledge. But they don't. Most of their articles are made up stuff, just like this article. And be fortunate, ECC spares you the comments, which are in ... Full Comment>>

Same reason China has countless 8 years old piano performers yet zero worthy music composer: repeating established patterns is one thing, understanding their logic and going beyond is a whole other matter. Full Comment>>

Yeah well an unlocked door is an open door. Microsoft of all companies should know that. Full Comment>>

The original news has been quickly buried and replaced by this http://news.qq.com/a/20150123/022799.htm#p=1. This version, emphasizing random attention cravers with zero extra artistic value, obfuscates the original artists' credentials until page 6. Comments hardly make any mention of whatever the message was to ... Full Comment>>

It doesn't even begin to look clean. Full Comment>>

Pollution is hardly one factor among many, so as usual with Chinese press: lie or excuse, that is the question. Tourism industry in China is yet another milking factory that charges a lot for hardly any delivery. Most spots are either run by greedy developers, or greedy dumb locals. Or by greedy developers with ... Full Comment>>

Yeah, it's that kind of abbreviations no one ever uses except Chinese. American Born Chinese are American Born Americans kids, they might play the racial card because they know the effect it has on you, but the truth is they'd never switch back to a shitty Chinese passport for the world.

I can understand. I mean, they're not going to pick their partner on his looks, and certainly not on his other inner qualities. Not much to go for. Plus they can use their "single" (yeah sure) days to milk some fat wealthy dude. Why the hurry. Full Comment>>

Oh, I didn't figure you were a wumao, apologies (to myself for wasting my own time). Thanks for making it explicit, your second sentence was killer. I guess you couldn't even grasp the concept that a nation could fund public institutions without expecting crass indoctrination in return. And that's sad, but ... Full Comment>>

Guys, it's disarmingly easy to spot your made up stories. Just a piece of advice, life is not like your dumb TV dramas. Especially when you involve foreigners. Pouring random stereotypes won't cut it. Neither will comforting conclusions from partial data. You're not even trying. Full Comment>>

The problem is that universities are not supposed to be, or to partner with, promotion platforms for political agendas, let alone surveillance bases as the article seems to describe and which sounds typically like your usual CCP bullcrap. That's what you call "principles". Yes, outside of China, principles ... Full Comment>>

No surprise here. Subway keep the same inspection rate in China as they do with their franchises in the rest of the world. Which means indeed that bosses and employees are free to cut corner wherever they feel like so, including food safety. Full Comment>>
