Once the peace prize is handed out there will be no peace any more

Once the peace prize is handed out there will be no peace any more

I've been to Norway nearly one decade ago for 32 hours. It is a tiny country, but it has a big airport in Oslo. Salmon is widely available even in small restaraunts and the Norwegians like snow skiing. They live a carefree but dull life. Norway is like a small room, but any Norwegian is like a big elephant in the room. To me it's like a kid contracted hyperkinesis. They are always craving for big bang. How? They decide to do those erratic things to attract world attention. Today they champion human rights, tomorrow they broke peace deal in Sri Lanka, all in an archaic way. All failed. How next? They are one member of Western ideology. They want very much to play brokers.
In 1989, against the resentment of the majority of Chinese people they handed out the Nobel Peace Prize to the 14th Dalai Lama when almost all the western countries were pouring dirty water to China.
In 2010, sensing the rising of the awakening lion in the East this tiny Gulliver country jumps out to name and shame China by handing out the prize to criminal Liu Xiaobo. This tiny nation's superpower dream is done. But at most it turns out only to be another puppet in the hands of the superpower.
Once the peace prize is handed out, there will be no peace any more. More blame is expected from anti-China media and political opportunists throughout the world. But China has pursued its own way of development for 5000 years and it will move forward regardless of whatever turbulance lying ahead. This is merely one episode.

The U.S. is the sole currency manipulator



Who is printing the US dollars? Who decides the amount of dollars to be printed? Who needs to print extra x billions of dollars to fix its debts and boost exports? Who's economy is struggling at the bottom of the pot? Why has the price of gold kept on rising and rising? Everyone knows.
By accusing China manipulating currency, the U.S. designs to hide the truth and shed its responsiblity to the international community and drag the other countries to the bottom of the pot and next step on the target country's back to climb out of the pot. Who is the rogue country then?
Under this backdrop, all the major currencies in the world face the high possibility of appreciation,see Japan now. A few months later, India will possibly be the next. If you don't bow to the American will and serve its ultro-selfish ends, then you are accused of manipulating your currency and the insane U.S.Congress will hurl its whips toward you. The U.S. is never short of sticks. To be or not to be is its choice, not yours--the media, the columnists,the economists are all at its disposal. They helps turn the villain into the moral judge.
Now you can see who is the currency manipulator.

Reality or Mirage: The So-called McMahon Line




Digest from Premier Chou En-lai (Zhou Enlai)'s Letter to Prime Minister Nehru (8, September, 1959)
"The so-called McMahon LIne was a product of the British policy of aggression against the Tibet region of China and has never been recognized by any Chinese Central Government and is therefore decidedly illegal. As the the Shimla Treaty, it was not formally signed by the representative of the then Chinese Central Government, and this is explicitly noted in the treaty. For quite a long time after the exchange of secret notes between Britain and the Tibet local authorities, Britain dared not make public the related documents, nor change the traditional way of drawing this section of the boundary on maps. This illegal line aroused the great indignation of the Chinese people. The Tibet local authorities themselves later also expressed their dissatisfaction with this line, and, following the independence of India in 1947, cabled Your Excellency asking India to return all the territory of the Tibet region of China south of this illegal line (the so-called McMahon Line). This piece of territory corresponds in size to Chekiang (Zhejiang)Province of China and is as big as 90,000 square kilometers. Mr. Prime Minister, how could China agree to accept under coercion such an illegal line which would have it relinquish its rights and disgrace itself by selling out its territory--and such a large peice of territory at that."
