china IS moving forward...

not for those who are too blinded by their so-called democratic values that they can't realize China is actually moving slowly towards a multi-party nation.  albeit a slow process, but nonetheless it is actually moving forward.

[quote]Chen Zhu, a noted scientist in hermatology and molecular biology, became China’s new minister of health after his nomination was approved by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress. Before his new post, Chen was the vice president of Chinese Academy of Sciences and also held leadership titles of a couple of prestigeous medical centers and research institutes in Shanghai.

It is said that Chen’s rise is very much the result of his disdain of bureaucracy and bold ideas on China’s ongoing medical reform. But what makes his appointment stand out in this year’s wide reshuffle of high-ranking officials is his affliation to no political party in China. In fact, Chen is not the first non-communist to be installed as minister. Just this April, Xu Guanhua, Chen’s colleague at the Academy of sciences but who belongs to one of China’s eight democratic parties, was also appointed as minister of Science and Technology. But in comparison, Chen’s partyless background as well as his appointment to such high office is an even rarer phenomenon in this country’s party-everywhere political life. Although it’s naive to assume the central leadership of China now is pondering a political reform across the board, Chen’s appointment could actually be harbinger of some bold moves in the personnel system of civil service as promised by the ruling party.

Nice to know that he is not attached to either party.
But in this kind of police state, it is very normal that another political storm, which can arise simply from personal greed, let alone people taking sides in the "King's Quest", will wipe out and back step this move.
Maintaining a high moral pressure by the public is beneficial to forewarn China relapse into chaos and totalitarianism, although this is a nimble force from the civilians, is always better than none.

thx for reply Rubber, now i know 1 other person in this forum who doesn't think everything revolves around a little 7m pop. city called Hong Kong.

i hope peer pressure won't cause these 2 (i hear there's another non-communist who was elected into a gov't position several months earlier) to budge from their non-partisan standpoints.  it really is a big step for such a backward thinking country to take, and in a far off sense, perhaps will ease the talks between China and North Korea in the future. (excuse me if i'm not clearer, on a tight schedule here)

I think the "non-partisan" standpoints are not an issue as they are more or less, a technical deployment rather than a political one.  I favor the use of the "pro-party" standpoint rather than "partisan" as for reason that "partisan" has real different interpretation in this forum and amongst forum members.
To this effect, I also hope Hong Kong can maintain its integrity, as an archive of historical events and a nurturing  ground for democracy ( where people are born equal ),  and a safe harbour for all those being oppressed.  Freedom is  something like air, you breath and you won't notice it, but if you are deprived from it, you suffocates.

democracy ( where people are born equal ) [/quote]

perhaps my POV is slightly different.  i believe democracy means people are born with equal "rights" as opposed to being equal (which is more similar to communism and assimilation).  but as where China's path leads, i do hope people like Bo Xi Lai can learn more than aesthetics of Canada city planning, but also Canadian socialism, and create a new China with similar goals.
