China Never to Copy Western Political System
2012-11-12 17:35:16 Xinhua Web Editor: yangyang66
Anyone trying to keep track of the development of China's political system must have got an unequivocal answer at the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC).
Hu Jintao solemnly declared in his report at the opening of the congress that "we will never copy a Western political system."
What about copying Western copyrighted material and mass producing THAT for sale in the mass market?
And what about taking Western intellectual property IP for the benefit of the Chinese economy and its government?
How about U.S. patents and technology?
Please, please. If you aren't going to steal the Western idea about government, please keep China's kleptocratic fingers off the rest of our stuff as well!!!
