Much of China's corruption problem would be solved if every member of the Communist Central is arrested and sent to reform camp. Don't set arbitrary limit or schedule on democracy. The time to do it is now! Any lawlessness can still be ruled with a strict enforcement as long people's rights are not violated. People in former East Germany is a prefect example, democracy was born nearly overnight! Would anyone of them wish to return to the bad old days? I am sure not. Suppression of free speech, press, or right to vote will only lead to further resentment among people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3355076702066700080.post-85510386291721216052007-10-19T09:05:00.000-07:002007-10-19T09:05:00.000-07:00democracy will come one day when the general publi...democracy will come one day when the general public is more educated, when people have more self respect. from the way i gathered on my recent visit to china, there is still quite a ways to go before china can really practise democracy. meanwhile we have to accept the leadership which does its best to manage such a huge population flawed with multiple socio- economic problems. also it has to shed its heavy historical bagagge. afterall rome is not built in a day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
