Since the earliest days of U.S. independence, relations with China have tested the mettle of American diplomacy.
At some points in history, the gulf between the two nations seemed wider than the ocean that separates its shores. Today, Sino-American relations are marked by both unity and division.
Beijing claims Taiwan, which split from China in 1949, as part of its territory. However, they have no official ties and most direct travel and shipping between the two sides is banned.
The communist mainland repeatedly has threatened to invade if Taiwan tries to make its independence permanent, and passed a law March 14, 2005, authorizing such an attack. The legislation lays out for the first time legal requirements for military action; the day before it passed China’s parliament, President Hu Jintao told the Chinese military to be prepared for war. Taiwan denounced it as a “blank check to invade,” and announced war games aimed at repelling an attack.
The United States recognizes Beijing as the only government of both regions, but its relations with Taiwan have improved markedly under the Bush administration. Washington is Taiwan’s main arms supplier and could be drawn into any conflict. U.S. policy has been to keep Taiwan’s military preparedness in direct proportion to the perceived threat from China, often angering Beijing.
China’s military was once thought to be incapable of carrying out an invasion across the 100-mile-wide Taiwan Strait. But Beijing has spent billions of dollars buying Russian-made submarines, destroyers and other high-tech weapons to extend the reach of the 2.5 million-member People’s Liberation Army.
he U.S. State Department’s annual global human rights survey said that China’s record remained poor in 2004, as the government continued to commit “numerous and serious abuses.”
The 63,000-word report cited: instances of extrajudicial killings and deadly torture and mistreatment of prisoners; coerced confessions; arbitrary arrest and detention; and incommunicado detention. It also said China’s judiciary is not independent.
The report said that many Chinese who openly expressed dissenting political views were “harassed, detained or imprisoned, particularly in a campaign late in the year against writers, religious activists, dissidents and petitioners to the central government.”
China fired back in its annual response to the State Department report, accusing the American military of committing “wanton slaughters,” killing thousands of foreign civilians and torturing detainees.
“The atrocity of U.S. troops abusing Iraqi POWs exposed the infringement of human rights of foreign nationals by the United States,” said the report, released by the press office of China’s Cabinet.
China’s is the world’s sixth largest economy. According to the U.S. State Department, the United States is China’s second-largest trade partner, and China is America’s third.
U.S. trade with China is a politically sensitive issue at home. The U.S. Commerce Department reported that the trade deficit with China set a record of $162 billion in 2004, up 30.5 percent from 2003 and the largest imbalance ever recorded with a single country. The Bush administration says this is due in part to China’s shouldering of more and more of the low-skilled labor in Asia, a U.S. demand for labor-intense goods that outweighs production and Chinese trade barriers. The conditions of China’s admission into the World Trade Organization in 2001 – lowering tariffs and eliminating the government as a middleman in global business deals – has been seen by the Bush administration as a beginning to solving these problems.
American manufacturers contend that China should allow the value of its currency to be set by market forces, rather than keeping the value tightly linked to the dollar. They say the practice has given China a huge trade advantage.
China is second only to the United States as the world’s biggest consumer of energy, with coal making up the bulk of its consumption. Its reliance on coal, coupled with rapid industrialization, has led to environmental concerns. According to the World Health Organization, seven of the world’s 10 most polluted cities are in China.
The Clinton administration established the U.S.-China Forum on Environment and Development in 1997 to address common concerns and facilitate the sale of environmentally-friendly technology. The two nations also pledged to work together in international efforts to fight climate change. When the United States did not join other industrial nations in joining the Kyoto Treaty to stop global warming, one of President Bush’s criticisms of the pact’s rules was that they largely exempted developing countries like China.
Another issue is China’s Three Gorges dam, which was built to generate electricity and prevent flooding. The $22 billion project on the Yangtze River is unprecedented in scale. It has been criticized for its design, which some say may worsen pollution, and the environmental damage its construction and future flooding may cause.
The United States and China agree that North Korea must end its nuclear ambitions and resolve the standoff through six-nation talks, Washington’s top envoy said in February 2005. The talks involve the two Koreas, the United States, China, Russia and Japan.
Washington hopes China will use its economic influence on North Korea to persuade it to stop developing its nuclear program. Beijing is North Korea’s last key ally and an indispensable supplier of fuel and trade for its impoverished neighbor.
China was the last known Nuclear Weapons State to begin testing nuclear explosives, but also the first state to pledge “no first use” of them. According to the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists, China’s stockpile peaked at approximately 400 warheads sometime in the early 1980s. In 2005, China was estimated to have about 300 strategic warheads and 120 tactical warheads.
Beijing has been fairly quiet about U.S. missile defense plans, Pentagon officials say. China, however, is modernizing and expanding its missile force beyond what near-term U.S. plans for missile defenses could stop.
Meanwhile, Washington fears that a discussed end of a European embargo on arms trade with China – which was put in place in reaction to the 1989 massacre at Tiananmen Square – would boost the effectiveness of China’s Russian armaments, increasing its potential to threaten U.S.-aligned Taiwan and Japan.

The topic says, let’s focus our attention on China. What is immediately in my mind is the latest happenings which focused the attention of the world to China. It’s not about the forthcoming Olympics but what happened in Tibet.
And this is what happened in Tibet some three weeks ago.
On March 10th, Chinese security forces responded swiftly to a peaceful march led by 400 monks in the holy city of Lhasa. When monks from other monasteries and Tibetan civilians heard that dozens of monks had been arrested, they demonstrated in solidarity, and the Chinese police responded with tear gas, beatings and the firing of live ammunition. At least a dozen, and up to 100, are reported dead.
The Chinese government is now clamping down on information going in and out of Tibet. Reports are coming in that detained are at risk of torture and ill-treatment at the hands of security officials.
The scale of human rights violations in China are well documented by Amnesty International.
– widespread use of torture
– over 1,000 executions in 2006 alone
– religious persecution
– harassment of human rights activists
– grossly unfair trials
– monitoring and detention of journalists
– mass “Re-education Through Labour”
– internet censorship
With the eyes of the world turned to China in the months leading up to the Summer Olympics Games, we cannot let China put on a showcase in Beijing and trample on the rights of citizens elsewhere.
The more than 1 billion people in China need its government to live up to their Olympics promise and to their commitments to the human rights treaties they have signed.
Focusing more on China, here some important facts we should know:
Population: 1,306,313,812
Life Expectancy: 72.27 years ;
Median Age: 31.8 years
Birth Rate: 13.14 births/1,000 population
Death Rate: 6.94 deaths/1,000 population
Languages: Standard Chinese or Mandarin (Putonghua, based on the Beijing dialect), Yue (Cantonese), Wu (Shanghaiese), Minbei (Fuzhou), Minnan (Hokkien-Taiwanese), Xiang, Gan, Hakka dialects, minority languages
Ethnic Groups: Han Chinese 91.9%, Zhuang, Uygur, Hui, Yi, Tibetan, Miao, Manchu, Mongol, Buyi, Korean, and other nationalities 8.1%
pareng joeseg,
what i understand about this topic is the vigilance on china’s arms modernization, being the main concern of US government although both countries are going along harmoniously.
what sends a chilling effect here is the rapid development and increase of china’s stockpile of warheads, a clear preparation for a “big IT.” against whom, is the lingering guess.
TKulot
Of course, we should focus on the military might of China and it’s capability to wage war against perceived enemies.
In 2000, the total estimated personnel strength of the Chinese military is 2.5 million, of which 1.8 million are in service with the PLA (ground forces). The ground forces are divided into 7 military regions with 27 military districts. Within the 7 military regions lie 21 Group Armies, each containing about 60,000 personnel. The Group Armies contain among them 44 infantry divisions, 13 infantry brigades, 10 armored divisions, 12 armored brigades, 5 artillery divisions, 20 artillery brigades, and 7 helicopter regiments. In addition, 5 infantry divisions, 2 infantry brigades, 1 armored brigade, 1 artillery division, 3 artillery brigades, and 3 anti-aircraft artillery (AAA) brigades are independent elements of the PLA not assigned to any specific Group Army. There are also three airborne divisions, which are manned by the PLAAF.
Chinese Constitution has guaranteed its citizens of right to exercise freedom of expression, association and religion. But this constitutional guarantee has failed to avert human rights violations from occurring in Tibet.International leader countries need to urges the Chinese Government to strictly adhere to its constitutional guarantee and to respect human rights of its citizens.
The people’s right to subsistence and development, civil and political rights, judicial guarantee for human rights, economic, social and cultural rights, the rights and interests of women and children, equal rights and special protection for ethnic minorities, the rights and interest of the disabled and international exchanges and co-operation in human rights.
In Tibet, torture and other forms of ill treatment is endemic in every stage of the incarceration process: upon arrest, during transport to detention facilities, in detention centers and in prisons. Various forms of torture are commonly used to extract confessions and force prisoners to reveal the names of accomplices. The Chinese Government privately sanctions these actions and has inadequate safeguards to protect the rights of Tibetans accused of crimes. Tibetans continue to die from torture and continue to be denied adequate medical care.
Beijing’s attempts to promote atheism in Tibet with political drives such as the (patriotic education) campaigns and the anti-Dalai Lama campaign have led to degeneration of Tibetan Buddhism in terms of debating, meditating, writing, thinking and listening. Four monks from Khangmar Monastery were sentenced to lengthy imprisonment terms ranging from eight to twelve years for conducting prayer ceremonies for the Dalai Lama. The residents of Kardze and Lithang counties were threatened with land confiscation if they fail to hand over portraits of the Dalai Lama to the local authorities.
China’s development plans to modernize Tibet are devoid of Tibetan participation thereby denying the right to self-determination of the Tibetan people. These economic and development projects do not respect the sentiments of the Tibetans with regard to their land, culture and religious identity. In the name of environmental protection under the Western Developmental Program, many local Tibetans are forcibly evicted and resettled against their will. Serious concerns raised by Tibetans, and critiques on development projects that could have disastrous impact on the environment and ecological balance of the region, have been ignored. The influx of ethnic Chinese settlers into Tibet creates huge livelihood problems for the indigenous Tibetans.
The Chinese authorities fear religious schooling and as a result ordered the closure of Ngaba Kirti Monastic School which imparts monastic education to 800 novice-monk students. Education policies in Tibet are used as a means to indoctrinate communist ideologies. Students are forced to denounce the Dalai Lama, taught Chinese version of history, and the medium of instruction in most schools are Chinese.
Gross human rights violations in Tibet, the Chinese Government cannot make claims of progress in human rights cause. As China continues to reach out to the world, beefing up scores of political contacts, emerging as an active player in the international arena, expanding its influence and refining it diplomacy to become as one of world’s great powers, the free world must remind itself that it also has a responsibility to ensure that China respects human rights of its own people, the Tibetans and others within its territory.So long as democracy, rule of law and respect for human rights are lacking, China cannot claim genuine development.
I am impress with you Kikay,ang bata-bata mo pa ay marami ka ng alam.I love to read anything you post.I am learning a lot for you.Medyo nga nakakahiya kung ang bata ang nagtuturo sa matatanda.
Palagay ko kaya ipinost ni Cocoy itong topic para ipaalam sa gobyerno natin na mahirap maki pag deal sa bansang Tsina.Mga kurakot kasi at hindi nila masyadong pinag-aral ang history.Bandang huli ang Pilipinas ay mapunta na sa China at tatawagin Philippine Chinese Republic.
Kapag naging Philippine Chinese Republic na ang Pinas ay maraming pasyente si Dr. Bello (ba yun?) para gawing singkit ang mga madidilat na Pinoy. Ang lahat kasi ng mga brown dilat mata pinoy ay ilalarga lahat sa pabrika, duduraan at sisipa-sipain ng mga komunistang sundalo.
Kung ang mga Tibetans nga na singkit ay dinuduraan lang sa mukha ng mga sundalong intsik, ganun din ang gagawin nila sa mga ibinentang Pinoy ni Guriang Korap sa Tsina.
Dalawang buwan kami ni hubby sa Tibet at personal kung nakita kung paano tratuhin ng mga komunistang tsekwa ang mga ordinaryong Tibetans. Walang magawa si Richard Gere who’s been supporting the free Tibet cause and number adviser of the Dalai Lama. Wala ring magawa si Prince Charles of England, also a supporter of Tibetan cause.
China is a powerful member of the only five-UN security council. Kapag umayaw ang Tsina ay tupi na ang apat na nasyon.
Kung maging PCR na ang Pinas, takbo na kayo lahat palabas diyan at siguraduhin na maiiwan ang Pidal family and mafia members para sila ang dura-duraan at sipa-sipain ng mga komunistang sundalong tsekwa.
Chi;
I agree with you completely.The Chinese government is not interested in any meaningful dialogue on its human rights record. Rather, the Chinese government is using the pretense of dialogue to escape accountability for its actions. That is why, despite years of paying lip service to dialogue, China continues to commit egregious violations of human rights, including arbitrary detention, political and religious imprisonment, torture and ill-treatment of detainees, deprivation of the rights to freedom of expression and association, widespread failure to enforce laws protecting the rights of workers and women, suppression of religious freedom and the use of physical and psychological coercion in the implementation of the population control policy.
Kaya ano ang piangsasabi ng mga duwag na gobyerno ni Gloria na daaning sa dialogue ang issue ng Spratley
The Chinese is competing with American military in the Pacific. China will be a more formidable adversary to the U.S. than Russia ever was.The Chinese are investing in both diesel-powered and nuclear-powered submarines – a clear signal that they intend not only to protect their coasts but also to expand their influence far out into the Pacific.In the first place, the Chinese might have a hard time expanding their influence far out into the Pacific because so many U.S. soldiers, sailors, marines, and air force personnel are already stationed in the region. There are 18,000 troops stationed in Alaska, 60,000 in Hawai’i, 37,000 in Japan, 5,000 on Guam, and 30,000 in South Korea. Again, the Chinese number is zero. The United States has over 700 military installations outside its borders overall, while the Chinese have none at present.
The Chinese economy could absorb the costs of building and maintaining such an expanded navy, however, it would be fairly ineffective without many overseas bases to refuel and resupply the fleet and the Chinese government would be extremely reluctant to seek such bases. In terms of physical size, demographics, and industrial output China dwarfs the Southeast Asian countries on or near its borders.China has been actively engaged since the beginning of the century in forming trade and other agreements with Asean countries not only to play down its Goliath image but also to develop markets closer to home in order to avoid dependency on the U.S. market, cut transportation costs, and reduce military expenditures.It is China’s best interest to form closer ties with Philippines South Korea and Japan as well.The same applies to China’s relations with India. The two countries share a long border and have an equally strong interest in keeping the Indian Ocean open to the commerce necessary for both Asian giants to continue their economic development.
Now,they have Spratleys and freely explore Palawan Island,watch out for the coming prophesy.
Maganda ang talakayan dito tungkol sa China.Naglalabasan ang mga matatalino dito sa Blog ni Manong Cocoy.Mahirap kasi pag vocational lang ang tinapos at hindi itinuro sa practical electricity ang Chinese history.
Nasaan na ba si Artsee?Akala ko ay master niya ang China.
Kutsara;
Ayan ka na naman.iniintriga mo naman si Artsee,Hayaan mo lang magsasalita din iyan.
Pinakamainam ay mapasailalim tayo sa bansang China para magkaroon tayo ng kontrol sa populasyon.pinapairal sa China ang one child policy at iyun ang kailangan natin sa Pilipinas.Masyado kasi tayong naging liberated tulad ng Amerika kaya nawawalan tayo ng disiplina at puro na lang reklamo.
Natural pupuntang manghingi ng tulong si Pangulong GMA sa China dahil ang ibinigigay ng Amerika sa atin ay ang mga surplus na kagamitan nilang pang digma at kakaunti na ang USAIDS na ibinibigay nila sa atin,papano uusad ang bansa natin ay puro tamad namang magtrabaho ang mga Pilipino at umaasa na lang sa mga magulang.
Dapat nga na ikaw ang ipadeport sa China dalawa kayo ni Apostol tutal magkatunog naman ang pangalan ninyo Tasio Pilosopo.Mahirap makipagtalo sa isang medyo pundidong katulad mo.
Ang ganda ganda ng usapan dito ay ginugulo mo.
Cocoy,
With Guriang Korap ‘uki-uking’ bigay Tsina ang Pinas, no problemo ang mga singkit sa “overseas base to refuel and resupply the Chinese fleet”. China will make the entire Palawan as it’s refuelling base. Me laban ba ang Gloria Asspweron militar sa bilyunes na sundalong Intsik?! At saka hindi na kailangang ipagtanggol pa ng militar ang Pinas kasi ay PCR na. Thanks to Guriang Korap, Pinoy is losing his only known country.
Kasamang Chi;
Kawawa ang Pilipinas kapag mapasailalim ng mga Intsik,hindi sila naniniwala sa karapatang pantao.Ang nangyari sa Tibet ay isang halimbawa kung papano nila tratuhin ang lumalabag sa paniniwala nila.Ano nga ang laban ng Pilipinas? Mas magiging masahol pa kesa panahon ng mga kastila at Hapon kung tratuhin tayo.Nakakakilabot na talaga ang nangyayari.Iyang mga kurakot sa gobyerno at mayayaman ay tatakbo sa Amerika ang mga iyan at iiwanan ang mga mahihirap para mag paalipin sa mga intsik.
Ka Simon,
Iyan ang tunay. Magtatakbuhan lang sa Amerika at Europa ang mga koraps matapos na maibenta nila ang Pinas sa Intsik. Sa paglubog ng Pinas ay ang mahihirap pa rin na ibinebenta ni Gloria ang lulunurin ng mga tsekwa sa laway.
Ang deprensya kasi ay hanggang Beijing at ibang maunlad na siyudad ng China lang nakakapunta si Guriang Korap at mayayamang Pinoy turista. Subukan nilang pumunta sa mga “roads less travelled” ng China at doon nila makikita kung ano ang naghihintay sa mga Pinoy kung maging PCR na ang Pinas.
Yo cocoy, I’ve transferred my blog to http://imgerard.wordpress.com
Update your blogroll ;)
Gerard;
Inayos ko na ang blogroll at diritso na sa site mo ng isang pindot lang.Oks na Oks.
pilosopo ka tasyo,
noong una ay iginagalang ko ang mga opinyon mo. pero sa pagkakatoang ito ay hindi ko na palalampasin ang pambabastos mo.
ano’ng masamang utot ang nagtaboy sa iyo upang imungkahi na mabuti pang pasailalim ang pinas sa china? lang’ya din naman kagaguhan mo ‘yan!
mahigit kalahati ng buhay ko ay iniukol ko sa paglilingkod sa hukbo at pinanatili ang pagyakap sa prinsipyong una ang kapakanan ng bayan kaysa aking pansariling interes at walang pasubaling ipinagtanggol ang kapakanan ng mga walang kayang pangalagaan ang karapatan, tapos ngayon ganyan ang mababasa ko mula sa katulad mong pilit isinasara ang mata sa mga kawalanghiyaan ni gloria at kinukunsinti ang paghahasik niya ng kabulukan sa buong bansa kasama na ang paglulublob sa poso negro ng kahihiyan dahil sa kabikabilang kasinungalingang nagbubunga ng walang katapusang kurakutan?
anay ang mga katulad mo!
pasensiya na pareng cocoy.
my outburst over tasyo’s comment is not personal but a feeling of being betrayed by the likes of someone who continuously closes his eyes on the left and right corruption, deceit, lies and never ending theft within the present bogus administration.
a person like this tasyo who blames the poor of whatever they are in is a glaring proof that insensitivity is one legacy that his bogus president wants the filipinos to inherit.
ibig mo bang sabihin tasyo ay umasa na lamang ang pilipinas sa utang at kung wala na talagang magpautang dahil walang kakayahang magabayad ang asministrasyon ni panda queen ay mamalimos na lang?
ganyan ba ang ipinapamulat mong katwiran sa iyong mga anak?
buti hindi ka tinatadyakan una nguso palabas ng pintuan!
pasensiya na sa mga mali sa itaas.
nanginginig ako sa inis dito sa katwirang bulok ni tasyo!
ingkong tasyo,
mabuti pa siguro ay ipahingalay mo na iyang pagal mong utak. sa tagal mo ba namang ginamit ‘yan sa paniniwala sa mga kasinungalingan ni panda queen, eh maaaring gastado na ‘yan. baka nga loose thread na!
kinikilabutan ako sa pagbasa ng poste mong maige pang mapasailalim tayo sa pamamahala ng china. biruin mo ‘yan? katanda mong tao karuwagan ang ipapakita mo’t ipapamulat sa mga kabataan sa halip na turuan sila ng walang katapat na pagmamahal at pagtatanggol sa bayan?
kung gusto mong pailalim sa china kasama ng panggulo mong sinungaling at magnanakaw, ikaw na lamang ang sumama sa kanya. huwag ka nang mandamay ng iba.
nakakahiya ka. sa halip na pasulong ay paurong ang pag-asenso ng isip mo!
When I was a small boy my old folks were believers on the industry and frugality of the “Intsik.” As I grew older my political perspective widened, and so with my impression about the Chinese– puera de los buenos,in my readings I learned that many of them are involved in smuggling, drug trafficking, sex trade, tax evasion and corrupting government officials, dealing counterfeit products, unfair labor treatment, contributing to environmental pollution, underground economy, business monopoly,etc. When Lim Seng ( a notorious drug lord)faced the firing squad during Martial Law,as a young student I started to appreciate Marcos in his drive to free the country from drug syndicates, and Chinese business monopoloy. Time passed by since then and not much have changed. While many good Chinese (Christians at that)have contributed much to our economic development; many Chinoys and even Chinese Nationals now a days continue to prey on our people having remained incorrigible and “notoriously undesirable.” On the other hand, it is no secret as well that many good Chinoys fell victims of Filipino syndicates and kidnap for ransom gangs. But many Filipinos too fell victims of drug abuse, white slavery, etc., by Chinese-led syndicates. In this context, patas lang ang laban, di ba? May masasamang intsik marami ding masasamang loob at asal hayop na Pilipino. But with the recent development involving issues of graft and corruption, ZTE broadband scam, Spratly deals, “Chinese train connection,” etc., any concerned Filipino citizen (full blooded Filipino, intsik or Chinoys, Filipino bombay, etc.)can not help but have a second thought in dealing with the Chinese. Is it not alarming that more and more Chinese are incursing into our socio-economic and political system? This is not being racist, but it pays a lot not to give our complete trust to any foreign national we are dealing with. Ke Intsik man o Americano pa iyan, iba na ang nag-iingat para sa kapakanan ng bayan. Do our leaders in the government think of this?
This is not being racist, but it pays a lot not to give our complete trust to any foreign national we are dealing with. – KapKidlat
Talaga!
Guriang Korap doesn’t care about Pinas security or future, basta meron siyang tambak na kurakot.
chi,
si ingkong tasyo ay ibang kaisipan ang pinapairal. marahil ay ganyan siya pinalaki ng kanyang magulang, ang manahimik sa isang tabi kahit meron siyang magandang suhestiyon na maaaring makatulong sa anumang pinag-uusapan ng kanyang matatanda. subalit dahil nga sa dapat huwag sasabad ang mga bata base sa kanilang ibang klase ng pagdisiplina ay nananatiling nakamata na lamang ang pobre. at ‘yan ang gusto niyang gawin kay kikay.
hindi iniisip ni tasyo na iba na ang takbo ng panahon ngayon. nag-uumpisa pa lamang magsalita ang mga kabataan ay mayabong na agad ang kaalaman. dahil nasa cyber age na tayo, hindi pa man sinasabi nating matatanda ay natapos na ng mga bata. ‘yan ay dahil sa kabagalan na nating mag-isip at gumawa ng hakbang.
hindi ba’t nakakatuwa ang mga katulad ni kikay na sa kanyang murang gulang ay marunong ng pahalagahan ang responsibilidad sa kanyang kapwa? na kaya niyang makapagmungkahi ng mga puntong siyang sagot sa krisis na dinaranas hindi lamang ng pilipinas kundi ng ibang bansa, mahirap man o nakakaangat?
palipas na tayo, ipasa naman natin ang pagpapasiya at responsibilidad sa mga kabataang mas sariwa ang mga ideya kesa sa atin ang kaisipan. sila ang magmamana ng daigdig na ating maiiwan at sa kanilang mga kamay nakasalalay ang kanilang bukas na hinaharap.
tayong mga matatanda ay mga spectators na lamang habang hinihintay ang paglubog ng ating araw.
pilosopo ka tasyo,
huwag mong kalilimutan na ang buhay sa mundo ay parang gulong. kanya kanyang pagkakataon na mapailalim at mapaibabaw at makapangyari sa mga kaganapan.
tanggapin natin na panahon ngayon ng mga katulad ni kikay upang sila naman ang magpasya para sa kanilang bukas. katulad natin, tatahakin nila ang landas tungo sa itinakda para sa kanila. kung ano man iyon ay magkakahugis lamang kung paano nila huhubugin ang gusto nilang maging sila sa hinaharap. wala sino man sa atin ang may karapatan na pigilan ang kanilang mga hakbang lalo’t kinabukasan nila ang nakasalalay.
matatanda na tayo. kailangan nang magpahinga.
Magbabate n’ Mrivera,
Ano pa nga ba? Kailangan nating maipamana ang ating katalinuhan at pagkabukas-isip sa mga kabataang katulad ni Kikay.
Itong si Tasio e diktador, mana kay Glorilla, at walang tiwala sa sariling kaisipan ng mga anak at kabataan. Paano uunlad ang isang bansa at sarili kung sisikuhin at patatangahin lang ang mga kabataan sa mga usapang may kinalaman sa kanilang kinabukasan?
Bakit, naibibigay ba ng katuruan sa schools ang mga praktikal at lahat ng mahahalagang bagay? Guide lang ang schools at ang tunay na bakbakan ng kaisipan at aksyon ay nasisimulan sa kanilang pakikipag-usap sa mga matatalinong magulang at matatanda na may mabubuting karanasan at wisdom.
Naiinis nga ako kapag binabalewala ang mga aktibong kaisipan ng mga kabataan.
chi,
sa aking mga anak ang sinasabi ko ay “kung ano kayo ngayon ay ‘yun ang ginusto ninyo kahapon.”
bilang magulang, tayo ay gumagabay lamang sa ating mga anak hindi upang sansalain o pigilan o sikilin sila kundi upang alalayan kung nalilihis at samahan kung tumatahak nanbg tuwid.
gaya nang nabanggit ko sa itaas, hindi habang panahon ay nasa tabi nila tayo kaya habang nasa panahon o antas sila ng pagtuklas at paglinang sa kanilang kakayahan ay hayaan natin silang matutong pahalagahan at pagyamanin ang kanilang kakayahan.
Ang susunod na Hari ng Mundo ay Tsina. Ngayon pa lang ay sila na ang Hari ng Ekonomya at Negosyo. Saan man sulok ng daigdig tayo pumunta ay puro gawa sa Tsina. Iyan ang dahilan kung bakit ninenerbiyos ngayon ang US. Para mabawasan ang mabilis na pag-unlad ng Tsina at para makaganti, ibang mga bansa ang ginagamit ng mga Kano kontra sa Tsina tulad sa nangyayari ngayon sa Tibet. Gamit ng mga Kano ang bansang India para maghasik ng protesta at terorismo sa Tibet. Ganyan din ang nangyayari sa Pilipinas. Parang lumalabas ngayon na lahat ng mga iskandalo ay nakaugnay sa Tsina. Aminin nating hindi malinis ang Tsina pero paano lumabas ang lahat ng mga baho nila ngayon na ang kasabwat ay mga Pilipino. Siyempre ang nagbigay ng impormasyon at dokumento ay ang mga CIA. Ang CIA ang nagkakalat ng mga bagay na ikasisira ng Tsina, tutoo man o hindi.
kapag naghari sa buong mundo ang tsina ay matatapos na rin ang pesteng tagtuyot dahil kapag sabay sabay nagsalita o nag-utos ang mga insik ay talo pa ang walang tigil na buhos ng ulan.
magkakamal ng salapi ang mayroong negosyong payong at kapote.
mabiling mabile!
tapos na rin ang krisis sa bigas dahil siguradong halos laging apaw ang mga irigasyon. hindi na kukulangin ang patubig. tuloy tuloy na ang pag-ani ng palay tatlong beses isang taon!
yeheheheeeey!!
Bakit walang pangalang Jackul sa Tsina? Alam ko na, hindi nila sinasayang ang tamod nila kaya napakalaki nang population nila. Magiging kaunti lang kapag maraming pangalang “Jackul”.
Over populated na ang China kaya mayroon silang one child policy.Kung hindi nila kontrolin ang population ay baka lulubog na ang bansa niala sa China sea.
Kaya nga Greggy, maraming Chinese ang pumupunta sa ibang bansa tulad ng Pilipinas para manganak ng manganak. Tutoo iyan, di biro.
