You like using that 'ullullating' word don't you? Bet you think it makes you sound really clever huh? You spelt it wrong. Actually. Every time. You think they all 'ululate' (correct spelling) do you? Full Comment>>

Blogs : BarrieV Posted a new blog Booom!!! China's Renaissance continues - Yuan joins SDR

The significance of this cannot be overstated. China has been playing the game every bit as wisely as I had surmised. So! China will now simply assume it's natural position as the world's leading economic force. A position it had held previously for many centuries. 'The International Monetary Fund (IMF) decided on ...

Try reading my comment again, properly this time. At no point did I deny or cast doubt on the existence of something that has been vaunted as the 'new (latest and improved) threat to the civilised world'. I'm very aware of its existence. The only weapons they could possibly have found in Iraq were weapons that were ... Full Comment>>

As to the 'Editor's note'on this piece: 'press freedom.. blahh.. violations of media rights.. yaddah.. discouraging.. yawn.. "some are being hired to propagate the party's narrative' etc..

Let's get some perspective here. ALL of the western media does exactly the same thing. ALL of the western media is owned, - it's 'in the pocket'. From Reuters to The Times to The BBC. Yes Auntie BEEB too. Period. There is no such thing as a free press in the west and there hasn't been for a long long time. These ... Full Comment>>

I can only state that I am pretty disgusted about the editorial stance here from eChinaCities: 'Chinese Uyghurs have been shown training alongside ISIS fighters in Syria and Iraq.' You have proof of this right? Perhaps some photoshopped snaps.. you know, the same type as supplied to every bank owned news agency and ... Full Comment>>

I have seen this 'article' in various places now, and it seems to me that this thinly veiled corporate initiative is not only utterly misleading, but worse, it amounts to 'China bashing' in the age-old guise of advertising's oldest trick: 'Make people feel inferior so they buy your product'. More to the point, as ... Full Comment>>

It is most worth noting that this statistic, figure, assumption, statement, call it what you will, has issued from none other the "2015 EF English Proficiency Index". Hmmm.. Now then.. 'EF'.. Who or what is that then I wonder? ;> :> Full Comment>>

It seems to me that ego-driven assumptions, generalisations and retorts and retaliations displayed here are missing the point; - as is the lead article from the headline down. The fact is that IF China’s English ability (What? An entire Nation?) has declined, then it is not at all a recent phenomenon. There would ... Full Comment>>
