I would not expect a creditable 新聞評論員 who are knowledgeable about China would write an article like this. Therefore, I asked for the source of the article and I was right. It is just a personal opinion someone posted on a public forum.

Why did I say this article judgemental with biases? There are more examples I can give but I just list two for demonstration.

First, the author expects China must demonstrate its technology advances in Expo like that Japan and US do; otherwise, China is looking backward and 在歷史廢墟中打轉. It is true that Expo has been a place for countries to display its technologies and national power and it was especially true 100 years ago when it was more a private party for powerful and advanced western countries.

Expo today contains a much broader contents than what it used to be. It is more a party for countries around the world to showcase themselves and let people to know more about them as a county and technologies is only one part of it along with arts, history, and culture.

Expo is like a party and attended guests decides what they want other people to know about them. Some can choose to show off its wealth and strength and some might choose to let people appreciate their beauty and talents.  

Second, the author said the Chinese Center focuses on displaying Chinese history and arts and it indicates that 中國太在乎歷史的光輝，總在故紙堆裏翻找所謂的先進文化. I would like to ask the author whether he has knowledge about what “soft power” is and why the Chinese government recognizes it as an important piece to its strategy to establish its international influence.

I would take articles like this for entertainment reading only.

SO call "soft power" is the weakest part of China, in fact.

Can you explain what you mean?

do your own research, or ask MJJ

I was expecting this kind of response from you.

I just gave you a chance to embarrass yourself in front of people. You speak nonsense and do not even know what you are speaking.

go search for yourself what "soft power" is.
China is lagging behind on all catalogue.

Why does China establish 孔子學院 around the world?

You are just 只知其一，不知其二.

I understand articles like this make you feel excited and satisfied, but it also reflects the lack of knowledge and the ability for making objective judgments.

I expect you do not like 孔子學院 at all.

My question is – “why does China establish孔子學院 around the world?”. So, what is your opinion on this? Do you any idea at all?

You are not making a legitimate discussion but just try to challenge me. If that is your purpose, I would suggest you to be more prepared. Otherwise, it is just another chance for you to embarrass yourself.

So that is all you got in term of knowledge and understanding? It is certainly disappointing.

Question 1:  Which is the country enlightens China to realize the power and importance of “soft power”?  (Hint: our neighbor)  

Question 2:  Do you understand why “soft power” is important for China to establish itself on the stage of world politics and for the development of itself as a country?

Other than the craps such as “brain wash”, can you tell people something that are more meaningful and show you are knowledgeable on what you are saying?

Can you say something that can at least show you have some 基本理性和深度? Can anyone force you to take any “洗腦課程”?  

Don’t try to avoid answering my question. Do you agree “soft power” is important for China?

So can you tell people what your understanding for 軟實力 is?

Just answer my question - do you agree 軟實力 is important to China regardless of what your understanding of 軟實力 is?

Did I ever say soft power was unimportant? But force-feeding it through official means does N ...

It is good that you at least admit that soft power is important to China.

Whether you like the way Chinese government to establish its soft power domestically and internationally, it is your own opinion and decision. However, the whole purpose of establishing soft power is for ITS OWN benefits and the development of itself as a country regardless it is China, US or UK.

Does the US or UK do any better? The flip side would be more probably true. Sorry to ask you another question – Why are there so many developing countries complain about US forcing its own value, politics and cultures to them?

P.S.  Do I have the courtesy to produce any meaningful input? I believe I certainly do especially when people like you try to mislead other people and tell people what you guys said are the truth when they are actually not.
