Last week we got a surprise invitation. It came from a member of the Chinese Government and a Communist Party member. On the surface they asked us to help a friend of theirs do trade but after a week of research we find out why they asked us and the answer may surprise you.It seems China’s tongue has caused them some serious trade problems. Some of their bad talk about other and their trying to keep news from going to foreign countries has only made the trade situation worse and cost China much money.

We also learned that there is a group trying very hard to discredit American companies that are in China. The toothpaste scare,for example, is an example of people who know nothing about Western culture. It is my guess that there are some Muslim extremists inside the inner circle in China who do not like the fact that USA and China are getting close. They will do anything to stop this and trade is a good place to start but it has had negative repercussions on China and has cost China a lot of face.

Now , irresponsibility and lack of knowledge also add to China’s problems. China is always in a state of denial and is afraid to tell the truth because it has been lying for so long it believes its own lies. I am a Canadian and love, and love to help China because I have never seen a country in such a desperate situation.

Now I have two friends who will help me try to fix China’s face problem. One is from America and another is from Australia. So we have a group of three from Canada, the USA, and Australia who will do a little bit to correct China’s face problem. Now there is little that we can do but we will try and see. North America can help us by speaking loud and clear to China and telling them the truth. China has lied to the world for too long and the world needs to tell China the truth. When China understands clearly that its behavior will not be tolerated then it will change. Only when that happens will everyone win. Today there is only a win-lose situation for China. In order for China to have a win-win situation it must changes its friends and its habits.

Today it is seeing the result of the fires caused by its tongue.If China does not control its tongue it will continue to start more fires that it cannot control. The OLYMPICS will be the biggest test that China will face for long time. Today chances are very good that it will fail that test badly. In the past five years I have seen so many Chinese people fail the etiquette test, the honesty test and the integrity test.

China as a country has so many opportunities to do well but because of its uneducated population it fails miserably. There are probably one thousand categories of professionals that are missing in China. So it is impossible for China as a society to operate smoothly. China needs professional architects and engineers and everything down to equipment operators. Plumbers, pipe-fitters and electricians are needed. Doctors, nurses and hospital workers that are trained are in desperate need.

It is very depressing to watch television in China because of all the pain and misery it shows. Every nation deserves better but until China comes to grips with itself this will never happen.

So help EAST WEST INTERNATIONAL VOCATIONAL TECHNICAL INSTITUTE INC. do its best to help China.
