I had a great time and so did most of the other people there. That girls sang the 'baby one more time song' , Chinese people asking for pictures with us. I would not want to base my whole evaluation on a country on a few angry people. |

Lee Kuan Yew the Singapore leader can probably give us the closest character description of the Chinese leasers that we are going to get. He generally leaves a good impression and says that the top leaders are clean and trying to do a good job.

Not the best referee in the world. It's also worth noting that Stalin had his admirers back in the day too. Hitler wasn't short on a few either, Kennedy's old man was a fan. |
How many South East Asian economic miracles have you spearheaded today? |
