On 'In the spirit of Shanzhai'
Copycat phones don't help
If you write "Nckia" on the phone, it doesn't make it more affordable for peasants. It is possible to produce a cheap version of a product and put a new, original brand name on it. That will create many Chinese brands, and maybe some will become international. People buy "Nckia" phones because they adore famous brands.

Shanzhai is destroying China's future economy. From Chinese brands to the Chinese entertainment industry - how stupid!
Anti-Shanzhai
A need to innovate
I hope that "Made in China" quickly turns into "Created in China".

On 'Beijing's traffic nightmare'
Rules and fines are paramount
Not too many cars but too many idiots driving! If they followed traffic rules, some of the problems would be solved or at least reduced. If you make the driving and parking more expensive, and punish those parking wrongly, things will get better too.

On 'Text message wishes are impersonal at best'
Waste of time
Second-hand messages don't make any sense to me. I never read them carefully, not even the sender's name.

On 'Cold winter for law graduates'
Social problem getting worse
It is very hard for all graduates to find jobs, not just for law students. This is a social issue. If we depend too much on the market and use the press, it will be impossible to undo.
