Default Re: China To Reach 1,300 Million This Week

Sorry, no. I translated from an article in Spanish here: http://www.periodistadigital.com/ but they renew on a daily basis and there is no hemeroteca.

The Chinese are a problem that we are overlooking due to the affluence of others which is perceived as more urgent, and also because they keep an extremely low profile. But in the long run, they could become a major problem not only for their number in Europe but also because they are backed by a huge and powerful country.

Some months ago there were some protests against the Chinese in an area in Spain where the shoe industry is very strong, because of Chinese who had settled there and were importing cheap shoes from China, causing jobs losses. The Chinese Embassy complained to the Spanish Government and the protests had to take a "non xenophobic" turn.

We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.
