    Default For the promotion of understanding of China

    Here are some links that helped me understand what "China" really is:

    http://www.zonaeuropa.com/weblog.htm

    http://www.danwei.org/

    All they do is translate and comment on Chinese news and other media. It's rather revealing, both of what the Chinese mentality is and how bad our preconceptions are. I am not saying that they are good guys or anything - I'm ethnically Chinese and I know from firsthand experience that they are not the good guys - but we could at least stand to fear them for more accurate reasons.

    These are very good links to finding out about Chinese current affairs but I don't understand your post, What preconceptions are you talking about and what is this good guys bad guys thing. I personally think that the diverse range of peoples that make up the Chinese nation are very interesting and it is a good thing that doors of communication are being opened up between that country and the rest of the world. I just feel as do many people that the country has a very bad system of government which does not represent these people adequately no matter how it would like to define itself.
