The incidents at Cronulla and Redfern are utterly incomparable to Tibet, in every way.

In Australia there is no internet censorship regarding these events, there was no attempts to block foreign journalists from reporting on these events, and there was certainly no Australian military units involved in containing these events.

Since the Communist Party of China effectively cut off that country from the rest of the world for half a century, what we see now is many Chinese taking any criticism of their ruling regime ('government') as an insult to their country, themselves and even their race.

So why take it so personally? It isn't about YOU, it's about the dictatorship that rules over China in a very brutal manner.

At the end of the day it boils down to this: in Australia we are free to strongly criticise the government if we choose. In China there is a good chance you will be arrested and sent to a 're-education' camp (Gulag).

China do have a lot of problem, same as lots of other countries, as a big country, China has additional harsh problem.

The incidents at Cronulla and Redfern do comparable to Tibet, in most way.

>>Communist Party of China effectively cut off that country from the rest of the world for half a century<< west countries sanction China

>>In Australia there is no internet censorship, in Australia we are free to strongly criticise the government>> at certain acceptable level

...
>>So why take it so personally? It isn't about YOU, it's about the dictatorship that rules over China in a very brutal manner>> not personally, no bias, just for truth which some people denied accept.

It is interesting that someone is ignorant but acts as an savior. Because lots of people can not face the harsh fact, lets take a soft example.

Former BHP CEO said when interviewed by ABC TV, " ... just a couple of years ago, we all blamed China's banking system, their bad debt; but now US themselves face serious problem in its banking system." Today, we all know there are credit crunch in US banking system, while overall credit quality remains quite strong in China's banking system, but I bet you never know west invest banks profited $150 Billion from bought China's bank stock in much lower price than IPO price.

that can explain a lot ...
