That is one good story

Without a clear strategy, China has turned to a basic instinct of the Deng Xiaoping era: When in doubt, build factories.

That's actually a really informative and interesting article with a unique perspective. I like it!

Bersih protesters demanding resignation of the prime minister who's more than a tiny bit corrupt. People have "committed suicide," David Cameron got overshadowed, their website was blocked and hopefully they'll succeed in toppling the #1 "donation" master. A reason why Singapore built a better nation than Malaysia after getting kicked out of Malaya was that they were obsessed over rooting out corruption and this made Singapore ripe for foreign investment. Southeast countries like Indonesia or Malaysia need this to enrich themselves, and not just the political class.

"There will be a closed door training for our members tonight (Wednesday) and they will use long knives (parang) and swords for self-defence," he told The Star Online.

I worry for the protesters to say the least, with the added fear that too many of my family are in it, so I hope things go well.

Police fired tear gas and used water cannons with chemical-laced water at the demonstrators to stop the march. More than 1,000 people were reportedly arrested.

Considering this has been the pattern for past protests, without seeming effect on the level of corruption of Malaysian politics, I don't see this protest alone going well.

Unremitting Horror.

EDIT: Follow-up Q&A with the author. As interesting as it is blood-curdling.

God damn it

What the actual fuck.

There's no social malignancy quite like Chinese social malignancy.

That definitely seems to be on the list of problems that can be solved by shooting people who deserve to get shot.
