    uummm just maybe he was referring to the demolition of the Queen's Pier being financially motivated (which if you're still unclear - is a purely capitalistic motiviation). DUHHH

    Oh ya sure, and just by sheer coincidence getting rid of a major colonial time eyesore. The Chicomms are anything but stupid. My respect.

    Who are you? Gen. Jack D. Ripper? Commies? China may be communist on paper and in some of their ideologies, but at present China is also probably the biggest brewing pot of 100% pure capitalism.

    BTW, have you heard the Soviet "evil empire" collapsed?

    "Have you ever seen a Commie drink a glass of water? Vodka, that's what they drink, isn't it? Never water? Do you realize that fluoridation is the most monstrously conceived and dangerous communist plot we have ever had to face? On no account will a Commie ever drink water, and not without good reason. I can no longer sit back and allow communist infiltration, communist indoctrination, communist subversion, and the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids." - Gen. Jack D. Ripper

    Ya I am sure President Hu just calls down to Hong Kong and tells them to rip down buildings that look British, and then build new ones that look old fashioned and British out farther on the water. (AKA Star Ferry since you seem so daft)

    As said before:
    "The local Government, Business, Media and Education sectors are self-censoring themselves in fear of oppression or lack of support from Peking. The Chicomms up north are ROFL about this self-running business."

    No need for Hu to give the British Knight Sir Donald Tsang any specific instructions.


    Btw, this Hu joke makes you ROFL:

    President George W. Bush: Condi! Nice to see you. What's happening?

    National Security Advisor Condoleeza Rice: Sir, I have the report here
    about the new leader of China .

    Bush: Great. Lay it on me.

    Rice: Hu is the new leader of China .

    Bush: That's what I want to know.

    Rice: That's what I'm telling you.

    Bush: That's what I'm asking you. Who is the new leader of China ?

    Rice: Yes.

    Bush: I mean the fellow's name.

    Rice: Hu.

    Bush: The guy in China .

    Rice: Hu.

    Bush: The new leader of China .

    Rice: Hu.

    Bush: The Chinaman!

    Rice: Hu is leading China .

    Bush: Now whaddya asking me for?

    Rice: I'm telling you Hu is leading China .

    Bush: Well, I'm asking you. Who is leading China ?

    Rice: That's the mans name.

    Bush: That's who's name?

    Rice: Yes.

    Bush: Will you or will you not tell me the name of the new leader of China ?

    Rice: Yes, sir.

    Bush: Yassir? Yassir Arafat is in China ? I thought he was in the Middle
    East.

    Rice: That's correct.

    Bush: Then who is in China ?

    Rice: Yes, sir.

    Bush: Yassir is in China ?

    Rice: No, sir.

    Bush: Then who is?

    Rice: Yes, sir.

    Bush: Yassir?

    Rice: No, sir.

    Bush: Look, Rice. I need to know the name of the new leader of China .
    Get me the Secretary General of the U.N. on the phone.

    Rice: Kofi?

    Bush: No, thanks.

    Rice: You want Kofi?

    Bush: No.

    Rice: You don't want Kofi.

    Bush: No. But now that you mention it, I could use a glass of milk.
    And then get me the U.N.

    Rice: Yes, sir.

    Bush: Not Yassir! The guy at the U.N.

    Rice: Kofi?

    Bush: Milk! Will you please make the call?

    Rice: And call who?

    Bush: Who is the guy at the U.N?

    Rice: Hu is the guy in China .

    Bush: Will you stay out of China ?!

    Rice: Yes, sir.

    Bush: And stay out of the Middle East ! Just get me the guy at the U.N.

    Rice: Kofi.

    Bush: All right! With cream and two sugars. Now get on the phone.

    Rice (picks up the phone): Rice, here.

    Bush: Rice? Good idea. And a couple of egg rolls, too. Maybe we should
    send some to the guy in China . And the Middle East. Can you Chinese food in the Middle East ?
