JBL:
You may notice the author of that article also has a Chinese name.

It is amazing different education system can make people from the same culture have total different ideology. For example, Taiwanese are very sympathetic for the refugees of Kosovo. We give 300 million dollars to help them, that is a lot for a tiny island with 21 million population. On the other hand, mainlanders not only give zero but they basically cheer for Milosevic.

Whenever China has a natural disaster, we also help them as much as we can. But sometimes I wonder "Am I aiding my enemies?" They sure don't consider us as brothers.
