Letters and Blogs

Control the CPI

Comment on "Inflation to surpass 3% for full year" (China Daily, August
30)

We hope that the central bank will take steps to keep the CPI stable.
Products' prices are very important for the general public.

It would be a source of instability in the country if prices always
increased.

Labor conditions

Comment on "Toymakers angered by claims of labor abuse" (China Daily,
August 30)

The article mentioned quoted one expert as saying "workers are totally
free to choose their employment".

However, if they leave, where can they go? There aren't any other jobs.

We shouldn't deny that the cost of Chinese workers is cheap.

Last impression

Comment on You Nuo's column "Confronted by contrast in Chongqing" (China
Daily, August 30)

I am a visitor and I think that Chongqing is an interesting and exciting
city.

I agree about the airport. The facilities are great, no problems there,
and airline staff are always helpful, but I have experienced issues like
those you mentioned. Departure gates constantly change, but the changes
are not posted on the screens, and there are many flight delays.

Some people hold on to their last impression of a place, so I think it is
important to address these issues.

Block secession

Comment on "US opposes Taiwan's UN membership referendum" (China Daily
website, August 29)

As a Chinese citizen, I wish for all the best and peaceful development
for China and for this region.

No military conflicts!

However, if Chen Shui-bian and his like try to secede from China, we must
be well prepared to do what has to be done.

Subway expansion

Beijing has been stepping up its efforts to build more subway lines to
prepare for the 2008 Olympic Games.

What confuses me is that if we were not hosting the Games, would the
government still pay the same attention to the subway lines?

Let us hope the traffic in Beijing can be greatly eased at an early time.
