[quote authorAugustusq, perhaps if you actually had a free and open government, then I would feel more confident in sending donations there.  Why don't you go protest for a democratic government?  Oh wait, you can't.  You're Chinese - that means you live in political oppression under a dictator.  Have fun with that.

I do not think I need a government as you have. My government is good.
Only two days ago, Chinese people gathered in the Tianmen Square to mourn the dead and support the government.
Perhaps you do not know. 

thank you all american friends who donated to the victims. We have seen your kindness.
You kind donations out of charity are well appriciated by Chinese people, which proves American people in general are kind.
S. Heroin, please do not be disappointed, though your hitler-like image has not function as Hitler itself. But remember you still have
a lot of opportunities to be a kind and humane person if you give up the predjudice. 

if you love people at all your best, and people will love you at all their best.
If we love each other, the world will be better. . 
Thank you all, those kind people.

i offer the source link, and CCTV is a formal offical television website.
Amazingly, you are clever and never get your work broke.
But your predjudice shoud be changed. Easy predjudice reveals a man's bad education. 
If you like to donate, you can also donate to the International Red Cross to help the victims.
If you do not like to donate, do as you are pleased.

Thank you all who decided to donate.
I personally consider it's time to put away ideology difference, since we donate to the victims, instead of the government.
Regarding the government, I think Chinese people have more say than people from other countries.
They know well if the government is good.

I am a very ordinary Chinese citizen in Chifeng, Inner Mongolia. I simply work in a private company.
The moderator may know my location from my IP.

Some say many Chinese people would rather go to the U. S. than stay in China. That's true because  in their mind they can earn more money in the U. S.  Similarly, many American companies would rather build more branches in China than in the U. S. It's very normal people want to earn more money.

Some say China's pollution is considerable. Yes, it's true. Do you think only China has a pollution problem? No, in fact, it's a common problem that all modern countries are facing. Say.

Any way, pollution and ideology are never the reason not to help common victims in disaster...
That's my opion. Thanks again.   

To those selfish people:
Please remeber, we can survive this disaster without your donations.  Because we have survived for many times without your help.
But your help will be remebered for your true humanity and kindness if you have.
This post is for test, testing your heart, testing your humanity, testing your honesty, ...
No excuses at all; Red Cross does not belong to any governmental branches...
Chinese government is much better than you people think.

Hello, everyone here! On May 12th, a dastrous earthquake hit Sichuan, China. Many people there lost lives, families, homes..... Please help them with your donations and your kindness will be remebered.
Thanks.
Augustus

Yesterday, you did not know China, but today you may know well; .
Confucious said: "By learning the truth in the morning, you are worthy of  respect though you may die in the evening. "
A hot debate does not mean to kill, but to enlighten people.

Some said Yuan Dynasty is not part of Chinese history. Don't you think it's funny?
If you think Rome Empire is not part of European history, then you people do not have a history.
Where are you all from?
I tell you China is not only for Han ethnic group, but for all 56 ethnic groups in China.
Chinese does not only refer to Hans but to all other ethnic groups in China.
You people do not know China's geography and history, that may be understandable; but you do not have a logical thinking. Regretful. That means you have been badly educated.
In Chinese history, there were many Dynasties founded by the ethnic groups.
China is a land not only for Hans, but for all other ethinic groups as the U. S. should not   only be the land for whites but for all races including Indians and blacks (but what did your government do to them in the history? Terrible if you know clearly).

Your melting pot often means racial discrimination, but terriblly you people do not have time to solve these problems but have time to make problems in other countries.

Maybe you think I am "from Chinese government" as you always avoid the fact that these voices are from the ordinary Chinese citizens. Do as you like since you have the freedom of free thinking. But I want to tell you not always to live by sleep. Dreams are not always helpful.

How do you know something about Mao and Tibet? From your textbooks? That's why you think differently from Chinese.
You should learn some Chinese language to help you be enlightened more. Your media are not good at China.
I read a lot of articles in many websites of yours. Many articles about China is completely ignorant as you always are. You people think by imagining. That's not good. Do some fact-to-fact research as a good student.

Since Yuan Dynasty (about 1000 years ago, founded by Mongolians), Tibet has been formaly a part of China as Terxas has been a part of the U. S. more than a century ago.  But before 1959, there was no freedom for common people there. But now, you can go to Tibet for a pleasure trip, and find they live a very good life.
China is not country for a single ethnic group, but a country for all the ethnic groups living in China.
As a common Chinese citizen in Inner Mongolia, I can tell you the minority ethinic groups enjoy more favorable policies than Hans, the majority group.

Tell you more, if you go to http://bbs.chinadaily.com.cn/forumsub.php?gid=2.


Your media are always cheating. You never know what Chinese are thinking about.
Go and have a look at that web, and make you get more fresh air. That's better for your spiritual growth.

中国万岁！

you people are really funny to cheat yourself by immagining what the outside world should be.
Pls learn more foreign languages, especially Chinese, so that you can tell what the Chinese is really thinking. Do not always be cheated by your bosses. Terriblly ignorant indeed....
http://bbs.chinadaily.com.cn/ is a really good choice for you to have a look what your Chinese counterparts are really thinking and What China really is.


You are thinking highly of yourselves, but you are in your sleepy dreams.
