China in Lebannon. China as the largest peace keeping force. China... trying to act like the next world power.
Indeed, China is rising star, economically. Indeed, China is advancing, economically. China... With the coming of 2008 Olympics, what do we see? A world of splendour, a world of fascination, a world beyond our comprehension. Exotic. Miraculous. Interchanging.
How ironic, this situation. How has China advanced, culturally? Chinese foreign students still clutching to each other, hidden in their tiny Chinese communities all over the world. Foreigners might be dangerous. Taiwan belongs to China. Woman should behave themselves and let the man do the big decision making. Lower classes in deep poverty, upper classes drinking champane. Google is censored. News is altered. Where is freedom? Where is liberty? Yes, economically it is advancing, but what about other things?
How ironic it is, that a nation which cannot take care of their own internal problems of poverty, illness, class, ethnicity...etc. moves to be a nation promoting peace keeping. A nation that aims 1200 missiles at another nation it claims as its own, then proclaiming to the world that it will put in more forces for the peace in the Middle East.
Politics. Something I used to be passionate about, now it sickens me. Just looking at how even more corrupted politics is than business. How every one of these appearance actions has a hypocrtical motive underneath.
How can we make the world better? It seems, every effort we make only makes it go worse and worse. How can the butterfly spread its wings? We're all monkeys of hate in the end of the story.

Welcome in the world of Cynicism... Where nothing goes right and everyone acts for its very own selfish interest without worrying about the 6 billion other human beings. Butterflies ? Well, the ones with the most beautiful wings generally end up pinned down in a glass case.
