China very stable and quiet 25 years after. Very successful and prosperous. Greatest economic recovery ever and not a word from Beijing about 'the incident'. Hope the family of the 'tank man' - and indeed the young man himself are OK.

Touch of spina bifida is it? There's an interesting contrast between the local Hong Kong people who are willing to show their faces in a demonstration against the cover up of Tiananmen by the PRC ignoring the possible consequences, and the snivelling gutless wimps parading their anonymous grievances against CX 'management' on Pprune without the spine to actually stand together and do something about the corrosive reduction of their families' standard of living... shame on you!

We live in a connected twisted world where everything affects and effects everything...and we at the pointy end have to be forever vigilant. Have a read:

Thanks for thinking of me. Have you ever stopped to consider that the stability in China that Afur Dent refers to is the reason that you and your colleagues enjoy highly paid prestigious jobs. I am forever amazed that people like you can't grasp this simple fact.
