| @Jian Shuo, Thank you for starting this topic in your blog. I was actually thinking about the same thing as you did - whether you're living in a vacuum. *:b I was surprised that someone as knowledgeable as you about many things did not comment on this matter when it happened. I, however, understand that China is a very big country and many people living in big countries do not know what's going on outside their countries that well. The same goes for people living in the US. To many of them, U.S. = the world. Although Myanmar is out of China, China has certain relationships with the Myanmar government, such as selling weapons to them. Perhaps that is why the GFW was triggered when people try to access web sites related to the current situation in Myanmar. I don't see the situation getting any better so far. Still, I hope and pray that it does. Grieving for the people who died in this round of protests... Ling *:~( |
