I think that the juxtiposistion of the poor Chinese and the rich foreigners is very interesting. The poor people were just as poor before the compounds were built, but now their poverty is simply shown more clearly. It's all realitive. While their doesn't seem to be any great atimosity, there is sill certian aspects that can cause worry for the future.

Congratulations on your fantastic wiki, and welcome back to cyberspace. I've posted a link to your page on mine and shared it with the Economics panel. I've also e-mailed all my colleagues a link to your learning2shanghai wiki which is full of great tips.
I'm a new wikinaut and I've only just begun building a page at http://englishplace.wetpaint.com I'd love to know what you think. |
