A little story from the family's 90+ year old maid, retired and returned to china, living in Shunde (near Guangzhou). Reporters interviewed her after Lee's death so the video must be filmed sometime last week. She was the one who looked after Lee's son, Lee Hsien Loong, the present prime minister of Singapore. This ... Full Comment>>

Lee wasn't like that but this is a common excuse used by CCP control freaks along with their corrupted, materialistic goons. Singaporeans have grown up as early as the 1990s. With a first class honors law degree from Cambridge (as was Mrs. Lee), Lee's kind but stern father producing obedient soldiers/kids management ... Full Comment>>

@1423... Women in general are more concerned about their looks. Nothing strange. Full Comment>>

Plastic surgery has other consequences. When both husband and wife had undergone plastic surgeries their children resemble none of their parents. This can result in BOTH wondering 'did you cheat on me?' Kind of unnatural if you have to do DNA tests to find out if your kids are really yours.:) Full Comment>>

No one said the guy did the right thing. That being said, if the girl had been honest none of what followed would have happened. There probably would be no meeting at all which would be better off for everyone concerned. Or, if she apologized immediately the result would likely be drastically different. How often ...

Haha. You can have the left side one then. Keep in mind though some girls inflate like a balloon once they manage to get a secure lock on a guy, thinking they landed their fish thus there is no need to 'starve themselves to death' for the 'kill look' anymore, so the right side one may not be a bad choice in the long ...

'The insane punishment seems to be working: in 2013, more than 80 students were made to run. This year, only 30 students had to run the 1,000 meters.' The 30 probably couldn't afford the hongbais. LOL Full Comment>>

A lesson for the girl too. Be honest, use photoshop for something else. Full Comment>>

You can be SURE the CCP will use it for something else. The truth is that something else is probably the real reason for skynet's existence..... Full Comment>>

Spot on. Their face thing blinds them from seeing a simple truth --- apples rot inside out. Too much face loss if they admit that. Full Comment>>

Looks to me the survey was completed mostly by locals. Quite a few locals told me they didn't like touring Yunnan anymore. I suspect that has to do with tourism transforming many of the Yunnan locals into unscrupulous 'people' the way it did to other parts of china. Another possibility is as you mention Yunnan, ...

@ferna... So throw out those chinese inventions and tell WHEN they are invented, cheap shot. Those things you mention in USA and Europe are things tons of mainlanders have been lying, cheating, stealing, bribing to own, cheap shot. People can work very hard to pay off their mortagage and credit card bills. What ... Full Comment>>

@14209... The thing is, if you can't handle reading criticisms on china just pluck out your eyes so the rest of us aren't burdened with your cheap wumao mentality. Full Comment>>

Good article. Elaine nailed it with her first point, flee the country. Be it Steiner's spiritual + science or china's soul-less, face, money, war approach, at the end of the day the goal of many of these $rich parents and their kids is to flee China with tons of money earned regardless of means, a country where ...

That's suppose to show anti-corruption efforts are paying off? LOL Where are the figures from other major producers such as Australia and USA? Full Comment>>

Apparently many of them consider a shit free home where they and their family work and live a worthy achievement. Full Comment>>

As expected, the score China received is inversely proprotional to how evolved the countries doing the scoring are. '....many in developed countries still believe that China poses a military threat.' They haven't realised China ALREADY has declared war on civilized, developed countries; mainland shitbombs are ... Full Comment>>

'I don't even trust the so called "HK import" shops around here.' Definitely one proof of a seasoned china expat. Full Comment>>

Yup. If you like ice-cream have a real Häagen-Dazs®, available at most supermarkets there. Often enough the price difference of a 392g cup offset a single trip's fare already. Most importantly you needn't wonder what the @#$# you're enjoying. Full Comment>>
