Oh, so you're one of those types who believe progress comes from the snap of your fingers eh? China today is far cry from the Mao era, and has seen much improvement since the Deng era.

, it is the rest of the world that is trying to open China…

Ma better be "pro japan" unless he's looking for re-unification under PRC rule.

Could be that he is shrug I, for one, would be happy to see this rather destabilizing issue settled.

japan, much like the US, is always looking for ways to improve their otherwise battered world image - it's a publicity stunt, nothing more. China knows this.

What? I generally show China support and I think you're really off base here. Who's world image is battered again?

"

So this guy was traveling for free on this "buddy voucher"? I hope the judge throws out his case."

Uhm, no? Free or not, its no excuse to send a passenger to sit on a toilet for a portion of the flight. Thats ridiculous.

Showing "backbone" doesn't mean being deliberately belligerent. Why flush everything that just happened down the drain? Japan is in no position to get pissy with China.

I guess they didn't change their stance. Though its not as if Taiwan has been getting an abundance of support from Japan anyhow recently.

No surprises here, the government whips up nationalism and some thugs threaten reporters. Once again the PRC has managed to give the people something to hate other than their leaders. The communist party may be run by thugs but you can't say they aren't masterful at controlling their people.

Well,…
