Of course, CHINA is a key to the North Korea if we're going to solve that riddle, but they COULD also be HELPFUL on Iraq, which is why it's important that we maintain a constructive DIALOGUE with China.

We ALSO KNOW that China and India, as their economies ramp up, are USING more and more energy.

China's history is MARKED by thousands of years of world-changing innovations: from the COMPASS and gunpowder to acupuncture and the printing press. No one should be SURPRISED that China has re-emerged as an economic SUPERPOWER.

What a publication can do is to help people GET a clearer picture without jumping to any RASH CONCLUSION. I'm very happy that the 'Post' can take the responsibility to report on China in a broader and deeper way. I BELIEVE the 'Post' must be FAIR to our readers. We should let our readers see China from more angles and perspectives.

I'm just a purist. What is IMPORTANT in my life is that I can do something that can influence many PEOPLE and influence China's DEVELOPMENT. When I am myself, I am relaxed and HAPPY and have a good RESULT.
