Your correspondent is, of course, really fond of laughing at his own inanity, but the alleged Chinese domination of Vietnam is pretty funny. China fought a really dumb war in the late 70s to "punish" Vietnam for not being friendly with Pol Pot, and found out that numbers aren't everything. globalsecurity.org

I have been thinking about china since i saw the picture of the hand shaking between Taiwan nationalist leader and Chinese PM. Today the chinese set terms for talks with Taiwans current leaders that seem to harsh for this govt to take. Perhaps there is a deal here. Chinese to work for return of nationalists in Taiwan. Nationalists to then agree to reunification. In exchange, nationalist party will be legitimized as the first opposition party in china proper. What do you think? Reunification for two party system.
