| JS: From my parents' description, in Shanghai, the situation was better than your description. At least, people CAN cook @ home. Still the food was in shortage. They mentioned that there were lots of people died in the villages. So I think there might be difference in executing the order from the government at that time. Maybe we shall look into more FACTS to draw an conclusion. Don't take the conclusion from others as they experienced that, they might have mixed up their own feelings into their description, the root cause of which is yet to be discovered. |
