| 你如果没把你05年的愤慨从新发出来，我也没打算加这个贴。说国内没有GFW的确是让人不解。我个人的最新体验是GFW是越来越“神了”。一个月前刚在国内呆了三周。每每有那不知为何不让去的网，我便被“带”到中国"鸭糊"的“指导点”。回美一个月了，偶尔还给你指导指导（这回都是网址有误的情况下）。GFW大概还会埋”虫子“了。我打算再给个一个月的时间。再”犯“的话就只好重装browser。 I found it's also shocking that for somebody like you (and some of the readers here as well) who have the privileges of the few to live in a relatively open and free life style, but who can't seem to tell the differences between mistakes and intentional misguides of media. Are you seriously putting a "=" mark between CCTV and CNN, BBC etc. (Believe me, I am not a fen of either of them... that's beyond the point). What is so bad of media from other countries to pointed out the brutality, unfairness, and unjustness of China... especially we all know what our national system is a decoration. They do the same thing to their own countries, their own governments. The only bad thing about it I can figure out is about loosing face. Guess what... if China and Chinese really want to become this big powerful nation no earth as we claim we dreamed for for generations... GET READY AND GET USED TO IT. The alternative... is close the "door" again like it use to be... go back to the time when few cared about how our parents lived. Since we jumped up and down to put our face in front of the world (this summer Olympic is a perfect example)... what is the point that we get all so existed that some of the people of this world don't think we are so pretty. In terms of Tibet. I am Han Chinese. I traveled to the the west area of China from the south of Gansu to where it is in between Sichun and Tibet in 1988 by taking trains and buses. I remember the biggest impact on me from that trip was to realize that they (Tibetans) were not us. They have a long history, well developed culture, literature included. They looked even better in their own native clothing. Unavoidably, I saw clear signs of "汉化" as well... I can only imagine how much more it is today. What I want to say is that it should not be up to us, Han Chinese, to tell Tibetans how to live. Rightly we often demand the respects from the West. Shouldn't we also give respects to Tibetans? The respect to their religion, language, and their right to be Tibetans. I know I would want that if I were a Tibetan. The common argument I read online from Chinese is that we gave them a better life. It seems hard for a lot of Chinese to understand that not all people value "modern" life, including the highways, high speed internet, and the new airports you were so proud of, as a good life. Let people have the right to know, to disagree. Maybe one day, we'll have a solution. |
