America’s China Worries – Part III

Posted by Matt in February 13th, 2007

In recent decades, the South Pacific has been a friendly region for the US and its interests, including islands that sit on Asia’s doorstep. But the rise of China and its growing interest in the Pacific islands may be emerging as yet another area of possible concern. In this final article of a three-part series, author Bertil Lintner examines how China is moving in the region to fill the vacuum left by a distracted US. The Chinese government has been seeking to strengthen its influence among neighbors, as part of its competition with Taiwan and also in an attempt to counter the American presence in the Pacific. China’s rising profile has allowed growing numbers of Chinese immigrants to join the earlier Taiwanese immigrants in settling in the Pacific islands, gaining control of some business and trade. This has sparked resentment and, in some cases, violent protest among local populations against ethnic Chinese. In some instances Beijing has evacuated the affected citizens and things have cooled down. But China’s growing profile in the Pacific – and the fear that it would be at the expense of American presence and influence – is likely to remain a long-term concern. – YaleGlobal

Welcome to China
China has one of the world's oldest people and continuous civilizations, consisting of states and cultures dating back more than six millennia. It has the world's longest continuously used written language system, and is the source of such major inventions as what the British scholar and biochemist Joseph Needham called the "four great inventions of Ancient China": paper, the compass, gunpowder, and printing. Historically China's cultural sphere has been very influential in East Asia as a whole, with Chinese religion, customs, and writing system being adopted, to varying degrees, by its neighbors Japan, Korea, and Vietnam. ======== Beijingboy1985's E-mail: hsiaowei.sun@gmail.com

African China
The Evolution of African China Far from being the obvious, since launching himself into the mainstream music world about two years ago, Chinagoro, a.k.a African China, may have stood out as a dependable, yet emerging social crusader of great reckoning. With his name almost becoming a house-hold name in many homes across Africa, African China parades a talent, very prodigious and could be described as "rare and different from what Ojo would refer to above as 'playing the music of destructive values." While storming the music scene with an uncommon tempo, Chinagoro recreates with his craft, the images of reggae singers of yesteryears. With the unceremonious exit of the likes of Majek Fashek, Ras Kimono and The Mandators, all Nigeria's past leading reggae singers, Chinagoro's entrance into...

China Gate - Chamma Chamma - Urmila
Movie: China Gate Song: Chamma Chamma Dancer: Urmila Matondkar Urmila proves that she is the best Bollywood item-number cabaret dancer since Helen! Baz Luhrmann used a snippet of this song in his movie Moulin Rouge. In fact, legend has it that he saw China Gate and Chamma Chamma, and as a result he was inspired to make Moulin Rouge (Hollywood's own Bollywood film, IMO) and ultimately his stage musical Bollywood Dreams!
