Hello, Tom I do want the chinese gov to reform its political system. But, the problem they have is that they see Russia as an example. It looks like to me Russian people may want the communist system back. As we see, after the breakup of the Soviet Union, there have been a lot of organized crimes spreading across the nation. Worst, some of them are motivated politically. The PRC knows if their own country turns itself into a totally free society, people would do anything, including crimes, to earn more money and rise in power. You may think the Russian and the Chinese citizens are ignorants when dealing with politics. And yes, they pretty much are, because they have suffered enough in the past. They rarely have much education while the countries are underdeveloped and in ruin in wars. But, the PRC gov have learnt so much from the history, which tells us many western countries have had tremandous interests doing business in China. Those businesses in the past included anything you can imagine - like drugs, slaveries....Hell, without the Opium War with British and some other western countries, HK wouldn't be part of British, and I don't have to hold a what...Northern Island & Great Britain (Oversea) Passport. When some HK people went to Britain, some of them even got insults from the local people in subway station, without any reason. Many British come to HK and make so much money, while HK people are working hard for them. Sure, the British likes HK and resides there. Recently, one of my old aunt in HK Island has been robbed by a young British at knife point - what the... Isn't it ironic ? Don't forget those chinese slavery (so-called china-man in US) took large part building US railroad across the nation in the early stage. Sorry for being so messy in my message.
