Don’t Hurt Our Feelings
Thursday, January 31st, 2008The People’s Daily is the official voice of China’s communist party. The Guardian newspaper writes about a People’s Daily commentary warning any attempts to use the Olympic games to discredit China are doomed to fail.
Furthermore, the Chinese article says anyone challenging China’s national priorities is “hurting the feelings of 1.3 billion Chinese people.”
Is there any other country on earth that complains about hurt feelings as much as China? How old is China? Hosting the Olympic games means sitting at the adult’s table. It’s time to accept a little scrutiny - from both inside and outside the country. Grow up.
