It is the hot topic during these days, not only in Australia but also in China. This Xinhua News is governed by Chinese government. Basically, it serves for government.

Article in today's AGE on apge 3 about Rebiya Kadeer who is in Melbourne to attend the film's opening

It is a kind of strategy the press used in PR. It is trying to convince the publics what is the right decision Jia made. Also the word "only" it used is trying to say that nearly all Chinese support Jia, and no one has disagreed.

the influence of globalization could be either beneficial or harmful. on the one hand, through the Internet, we view the world, travel to the world, and experice the world. on the other hand, however, like the image on the left hand side, the improvement of technology made a gap between rich and poor bigger and bigger. even though developed countries try to help developing countries, such as Africa, the unequal distince between each other is obvious and hard to reach in a fair position because the poor nations are far more behind the rich.

different culture makes people who have different behavious. it is obvious between West and East. people in Asia do nto have many facial expression and body language; they looks shy and strict. in contrast, Western people's facial expression always change when they talk to each other. In Asia, people would not like to express themselves to each other. in other words, they sometimes seems try to hide something, or sometime they do not like others, such as family members to worry about them. So, we usually tell each other good news and hide bad things. it is quite interesting to know different cultural values around the world, and also it is useful to understand various ways to communicate with people from all over the world.

I do not think it is a mistake Asian participants made because different explanation or understanding is based on different cultral backgrounds from West and Aisa. so it is not wrong or right but cultural conflicts and differences.

the success of Japanese products is because they know what people like, what is the common ground of people around the world, and these products are really entertained, such as Hello Kitty, Ben 10, etc. Rather, these characters are well connected between Western and Asian social and cultural values. SO, they are global symbols.

I think what the decision China made is rational and considerable. this is because when the emergence of globalization, China begun to face up to criticizes from foreign countries, like human rights, democrcy, one party domination... finally, national issues quickly became international business. among these criticizes, some are honest but some are fake. With these pressures, nevertheless, China has changed even if it is slowly. During these days we can explore the tension on the relationship between China and Australia due to several issues. however, this article makes me happy to see the growth of China. the reason is that China learned to how to communicate to the world. although China would like to participate into the multilateral issue, it does not mean its compromise on other issues. As Chiese ambassador stated that a multilateral issue and the present difficulties are two different things. in other words, China still insists its own right on national sovereignty. what I trying to say is that every country has an obligation to build up a peaceful and mutual respect and understanding world. we can hold our own right, we respect each other, and we live together in one world.
