Ong: China excellent for business

MALAYSIANS have been advised to start business ventures in China which, according to Housing and Local Government Minister Datuk Seri Ong Ka Ting, provides a big market as well as business opportunities.

Local businessmen should grab these opportunities, the Sin Chew Daily quoted him as saying at the 7th World Chinese Entrepreneurs Convention on Tuesday.

“Malaysia has always seen China as a good friend and neighbour. The Prime Minister had expressed a very clear stand on this,” the Sin Chew Daily quoted him as saying, in reference to the keynote address by Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad when he opened the three-day convention.

Twelve Soviet-era documents were uncovered in Moscow in 1998, allegedly supporting the position that the bacteriological attacks were a deliberate communist fabrication aimed at discrediting the US war effort

yep I wonder how many people read the whole article.

China suffered 900,000 casualties — killed and wounded — when it sent troops to Korea in late 1950 to protect the northern regime from imminent collapse under the weight of a US-led counterattack

yep, I think that is where the expression..

"coming over the hill like the Chinese infantry"

came from. I am sure the guys at the other end of the charge just would have been happy to survive the onslaught.

Gotta little time on my hands today, Ziwu.

So, thought I'd share this with you. For a while this thread, BB&R, was more like the "Baldur Fjolnisson Show." Then, one day, back in April, Baldur just kinda....disappeared.

Been gettin' a little deja vu lately.

Yiwu - That link is a Pakistani newspaper, not from China. Did you find the link in China Youth Daily? I cannot find the story in the English version of China Youth Daily.
Anyway, it's a good thing China's government doesn't follow the warhawks mentality.

I found this big headliner instead.
