Defrocked, it is not unusual that economic activity spurts up after natural disasters, we have the same phenomenon in California, every time we get a serious earth quake and in the south after each major hurricane. Such disaster require reinvestment in housing,m infrastructure etc. and actually, like in a forest fire, allows for rejuvenation (replacing old technologies with new ones)

G'day all - dear Defrocked, while I do not agree with many PRC's policies [especially on the human issues,] one thing I don't doubt is its resolve, especially during this facelifting <G> period of its history. Does that mean it will be successful? I don't know, as the economic forces are no less powerful than the mightiest tidal waves; however, that certainly makes the PRC a standout amongst the other asian countries, who have caved to specialized interests and ultimately hurt the long term prosperity of their respective countries. On a separate note, now is... cnnfn.com best, Bosco
