		Are Chinese selfish? Somebody suggested in an above thread that "a good number of the islanders in Taiwan don't want to be part of China", and deemed that we mainlanders are "selfish" because we refuse to let the island go. my answer is: when national unity and security, the ultimate goal and glory of a people, is concerned, you cannot judge it by "selfish" or "selfless". Deng was right... Mr. Deng Xiaoping was very right and also a prophet to suggest in 1984 that, after Hong Kong comes back to the embrace of china in 1997 from 99 years of British colonial rule, that only Chinese patriots would be allowed to fill in the top slogs of Hong Kong's governance. I think it's population growth and jobs! This is really a good topic, and every Chinese, esp. those sitting at the very top policy-making positions in Beijing ought to take a serious and through look into this intrigue. About American and British media reporting..... Did American and British media, not controlled by anybody, as claimed by some in this thread, find that Saddam Hussein hided weapons of mass destruction? Chen Shuibian is a very crafty politician Reply Harrison5 I know Little Bush is playing with "both of us" +beijing and taipai+ for the purpose of US' national interest, and also, self-attainment or amusement.
