A glorious opening in Beijing 11:58pm on 06 Sep 2008 This opening ceremony was miles miles better than the Olympics one, even though the Olympics opening ceremony was already spectacular.
Catching my breath 11:17am on 04 Sep 2008 It seems to me some people out there believe JR is entitled to criticise China, but he himself somehow should be immune from the criticism.
Marathon swim delivers another sensational finish - and inspirational champion 9:10pm on 02 Sep 2008 dear offshoreswimmer

thanks for your reply. like i said before, most of your comments made sense. and nice to see people can actually talk sense here. let's move on to cheer those remarkable individuals competing in the Paralympics.
China switches to Paralympic mode 4:03pm on 02 Sep 2008 Very glad to see your little girl is enjoying her stay in China. My 2-year-old boy is also frequently stopped and greeted and adored by the nice local British people. And yes, I'm Chinese.
Marathon swim delivers another sensational finish - and inspirational champion 3:46pm on 02 Sep 2008 Dear offshoreswimmer

Since when 'barking' has been used to describe a lady's talk in English, especially by a pretty 'grown up' press?

to answer your 1), 2), 3) and after 3)

1), 2) Since when the likes of 'sudden drop in blood pressure' and 'greater fatigue' give you the right to say 'shut up' to a lady and throw water on her face? After all Mr Davis was able to talk on the BBC in lenght, but he couldn't stand a few words from a lady?

3) The schedule had already been running late because of Mr Davis's initial passing-out rather than being scheduled too tight. All the other medallists and officials were actually waiting for Mr Davis. That's why the female Chinese officer asked Mr Davis to come quickly. He would be stripped off the medal if he missed the ceremony.

Afer 3), so you think kicking a lady's face is bad whilst throwing water on a lady's face is somehow ok, right?

Finally, about the phone call my friend got was from a guy in Team GB, and his name was David Richards. He told my friend that my friend was lucky that he had not been sued. All my friend did was phoning British Swimming Association and suggesting Mr Davis should apologise. So that's why I doubt a private apology had been made.

Let me finish this. Right is right, wrong is wrong. Mr Davis won a medal for Team GB, which was great. But his behavior and the British reports were highly inappropriate.
Paralympic Fever? 3:10pm on 02 Sep 2008 Very nice to see the Olympics Fever has turned into the Paralympic Fever in China. Despite the continuous bashing from people who have never been to China, China has done her best to hose these games.
Marathon swim delivers another sensational finish - and inspirational champion 6:32pm on 30 Aug 2008 Dear Stop_it_Aggers

What you said all made sense until you cited Independent. Dear me, 'barked repeatedly in his ear', is it the way how the British presses report?

Honestly, what offended the Chinese the most was not Mr. Davies. It was indeed how the British presses put it.

Apologise in private? I highly doubt it. One of my friends tried to make enquiry to Team GB. She even got a phone call to threaten her that they would take legal action against her. My friend, the girl just made a phone call. Legal action? Crazy.
China delivers an Olympics like no other 00:35am on 24 Aug 2008 dear crowperson

why am i "tangling with the wrong person"? only because you're a political researcher? you're a POITICAL researcher, not a history researcher, are you?

you said "we have access to eyewitness accounts, Amnesty International reports, know the facts on lamaism in Tibet and so on."

sadly Amnesty International doesn't even go to tibet. where do they get their facts? how ironic.

you said "I don't often comment unless I know the facts". yet you presume i'm in china and couldn't see so called "free information". are you sure it's the fact? shall i show you my p60? how contradicted.

then, you "have to say, disagree with" me. but for what? I merely asked two questions. what do you disagree with? how ridiculous.

fianlly, at the end of your lengthy comment, you said you disagree with me, but, funny enough, i can't disagree with you, and, that is what democracy is about. may i ask if you really know what you're talking about? political researcher, huh? yeah, feel free to try your best to mix your politics with the olympics.

BeijingLondon - we ignore them because they are ridiculous. Resorting to such absurd points suggest you know you have lost the debate, as China's system isn't really that much to be proud of either.

------------------

are they indeed ridiculous or do they only sound ridiculous? there's a huge difference.

where do you learn things about tibet? from the media and films or the serious history experts? there's a huge difference.

Quote:5) Hate to tell you all, but China won, and all you China haters can now go crawl back where you came from. And TIBET IS STILL PART OF CHINA! Deal with it.

Dear michaellou
Tibet is a province-level autonomous region of the Peoples Rep of China. This is a huge legal difference, like saying Scotland is part of England.

-------------------
dear tigermilkboy,

tibet is part of china should be better compared with Scotland is part of UK (no england).
