In this particular forum, many have been speaking against the social injustice in China. The government has been capable and effective economically, but we are looking for something more, something that will satisfy the 200 years of hardship and pain we endured through the modernization of China. Most of us are stuck with imitating Western ideals, the equality, freedom and integrity. Others feel there is nothing wrong with China, the Communist government is the best we are going to get. Some hope for change. But How?
As Overseas Chinese, the Chinese government do not have jurisdiction over us, we can criticize all we want. Hell, we can start a revolution if we'd liked. But that will be ineffective, we want to promote change for the Chinese society, something our grandchildren will look back at us and marvel about. I hope through this thread, LYK can reach a consensus on what we can do together to change for a cause.
PS: I am kinda tired of debating about who is better, China or Japan or America, it is so time-wasting. Just want to do something productive for a change.
Change has 2 results - One, for sure, is improvement; On the other side, it's degradation.
Long time ago, I have reminded one friend of mine to have some changes. She thought there is no such reason to change as she thought/felt she's already "that" good (almost perfect in HER view). As time goes by, many friends left her including myself... Sad...
So, in general, when people talk about changes, it implies improvement.
Humans can get used to anything but they have the problem to be overly greedy. Once they think they can get anything they want, their insatiable appetite will keep growing without limit.
I am not a visionary nor a hero. As such, there is nothing game changing that I can do or even think of. The most important thing that I see is, Mainland Chinese and HK folks themselves need to see the failures of the CCP and SAR government and take action to change that. There is absolutely nothing we can do when they are the ones suffering, but continue to put up with all that crap. In other words, if they really don't mind eating shxt, there is nothing I can do from stopping them. Only they can help themselves.
In light of that, I can only hope that by repeatedly pointing out the failures of the CCP and HKSAR governments, enough people will at least recognize that 1) there are problems in the first place, and 2) the problems cannot continue. And yet we still have those mild tempered, mild manner idiots like MJJ in HK that oppose any sort of drastic (but non-violent) measures, and continue to believe in the Democratic Pigeon Party liars. And guys like Peter, FY, Rocky, Chunsh, Zoids are all beyond help...
do you think China and HK will still be able to maintain their economic growth ...

China's growth comes from China's own economic reforms and urbanization.
China can grow without the western countries doing well.
During the 1950's when China didn't grow much, the western countries and Japan could grow without China. Now China can grow when the western countries are in trouble.
