I forgot to mention...although I appreciate the caricature I will stick to the picture that shows the 5-year old boys training to become great athletes. <BR/><BR/>This type of intensive training is a more than painful experience for young children to go through and should be stopped. <BR/><BR/>The incentive behind this as I see it, is that China wants to collect as much glory as possible via Olympics Medals so that they will be more accepted by the Western World--therefore attract more investors. It's a kind of 'posturing for trade'--everthing the Chinese dictators do has to do with gathering more money and more power at the expense of their helpless citizens who have to obey faithfully or else...they lose their jobs or end up in jail, labour camps, etc.<BR/><BR/>Cruel sport is where they're at in this respect.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19758914.post-1138385916225716732006-01-27T10:18:00.000-08:002006-01-27T10:18:00.000-08:00thanks Anom!thanks Anom!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19758914.post-1138383962751997872006-01-27T09:46:00.000-08:002006-01-27T09:46:00.000-08:00Yao Mings caricature :http://www.chinese-tools.com...Yao Mings caricature :<BR/><A HREF="http://www.chinese-tools.com/caricatures/yao-ming.html" REL="nofollow" TITLE="yao ming">http://www.chinese-tools.com/caricatures/yao-ming.html</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
