What is with the obsession with personality?

One lone man can never lift billions of people out of decadency. Let us give some credits to the hard working people.

To be fair. Some people are more obsessed with him than most chinese people i know. :rofl:

It is however not the discussion here or there. Open a new thread if you so incline.
you mean there is no more personality cult in China!! I think I am getting obsolete !!

Nobody is blaming the "poor man" as you call it.

Merely state the obvious. That is not a critizisme.
OK.

If you people think he is a rich man, so be it.

You would know better!

What is the obvious?

That he was a mass murderer, given the faulty policies that cause the Great Famine and then move onto the Cultural Revolution?

We are merely pointing out Chinas obsession with Mao and his Maoist Communism, without communism china would have been a developed country long before Taiwan and millions never would have needed to be pushed in despair, all of it was a waster of life which only kept china poor.

Mr.Ambassador you are barking up the wrong tree.
I don't think he is barking up the wrong tree.

Are the Yanks following a sinister strategy here?
America is more than capable of holding SL by its throat. They could have done that easily before 2009 when the tigers were around. They can even do it now albeit with a little more effort.

It is as if the want to touch their nose by sending their hand around the back of their head.

But why are they insisting that India take on China in SL?
Like Heinz said the TN factor cannot be ignored by the Centre. Any out of the way appeasement of SL might cause trouble in TN.

It is as if they want India to be a hedge against China but at the same time keeping a check on the country from within.

I may be wrong but there are reasons to be paranoid.

To be honest, I hear more about him from the Indian posters than anyone from China. The only thing chinese is obsessed these days are capitalisme. No idea where you get the notion that todays youngsters are obsessed with him.

Your deliberate attempt to avoid Mao's influence on your history only shows how little you think of him and how little Mao has offered your nation. Your communist party wont even let you talk of him in any bad terms and yet you call us obsessed? lol..

You will here of Gandhi also from the Indians.

We don't abandon those who have done something for us.

It is called GRATITUDE.

Is it something that is not in the Chinese culture?

Or is MONEY the be all and end all of life in teh Chinese culture that you are so proud about that you flaunt endlessly?

To aknowledge something and be obsessed is something entirely different. Come back when you know the difference.

Seems i need to remind you the topic every now and then. The topic is not about Mao. I already told you to open a new thread if you feel incline. Instead you just keep trolling with OT. Get hold of your-self.:rolleyes:

It will be too costly for Sri Lankan to place themselves between the Chinese and Indian cross fires . For commerce India would have No objection though.
Lankans know how to merry coat India and that India has a pathological defect of always applying/taking so called matured sugar talks instead of hard realist diplomatic action.
With the current confused foreign policies and spineless political leadership, they don't even want to engage India at the level they did with China. For them, it is unlikely to pay off as rich dividends. We're being fooled and taken lightly. We have to correct our course.

Regards,
Virendra

We are not talking about Mao here, i am makeing the general point that Communism is put China through shit it does not need to have gone through. Yet you cant speak ill of communism or Mao i call that obsession not acknowledgement.

Nobody is obsessed.

Yet, nobody in India, is ashamed to admit the good points of even a mass murderer.

We are fair.

The topic is not about Mao. I concede that.

It has meandered to Mao.

All threads meander.

Now, that is on Mao, one cannot avoid comment.

However, those who are embarrassed about Mao and denounce him, find it uncomfortable!

I appreciate your discomfort.

I don't have to troll. I am the Mentor!

I am merely trying to bridge a disgraceful and disloyal falsehood that some are bent on perpetuating!

You are not obsessed? You got be kidding me. If by invoking the name Mao every time you talk about CHina is not an obsession, then I dont know what is. I know it is hard for you, since he is the only chinese you know back in the 70s.



Anyway I see no reason to go OT like you do. So this is my last post here. Have fun !

Mao is a great soul and an architect of modern China.

Do you disown Mao and think he is a rat?

If you feel so,be bold enough to tell, then tell it to the face of Wen!

Will see you in the nearest Chinese Jail!

Now why would we want to kick the Chinese out of Sri Lanka, after all Lawrence of Arabia did not kick the Turks out of Medina. But let them stay there and bled them white.

I call your remarks on Mao or better development without Mao nonsense. He is a messiah like Confucius for Chinese. What he did was like ploughing the field and laying the the foundation for upcoming generations (incl Deng) to further... Of course he made lots of mistakes. As time goes by more and more start to recognize his great contributions. U mentioned Taiwan... Okay, after KMT lost mainland to CCP, one of top reforms in Taiwan KMT carried out in Taiwan was land reform like CCP did on Mainland i.e. distributing lands from landlords to peasants abolishing feudal relation of production - That's what I called "groundwork" paving the way for profound socioeconomic advancement. And besides, KMT escaped to TW with almost all the treasury of whole China (ROC), gold, foreign reserve... TW received investment and transfer of industries from developed countries, while Mainland in contrast was under embargo due to tilting towards to Soviet Bloc at the very beginning and following Socialism/Communism...


Now back to the topic, how will u Indians 'kick' China out of SL?

This is what i was implying by your killer sarcasm sir! lol..

However most chinese members here cant deny the fact that China would be developed country like Taiwan,SK or Japan if not for Mao..!
