Chinese, why are you celebrating the 60Th anniversary of Communist dictatorship?

:-(

India

Western press says that Mao killed 10 millions people and he was a womaniser and lot more….

Why are you celebrating Communist dictatorship then? Was not Mao the worst chapter in Chinese history? Had it been Cheng Ki Shek in 1949, with backing of US, would not it have been a better place to live in China then? 

Do you admire Western model of Democracy?

It is international forum. You need not fear that monster communists. You may express your self freely.

Ophilia,

U make me more curious.

U are a Chinese…OK…and U like MAO? Even knowing that he killed over 10 Million ppl there and he used to abuse women.

Please don't take it personally..I just want to know ? Do you mean to say that it is all propaganda?

Can you state some reasons, specifically, why u like him at all?

An exciting tale of three generations spanning the end of old China, Chinese Revolution, Mao regime and Japanese occupation.

:-(: Just the same as I can't figure out why Indian ppl respect Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi so much and tolerate the present hierarchy in India,why there are so many ppl worship jesus and Mo-hammed, Why Americans love George Washington and Jefferson who killed so many Indians (Native Americans), I don't think you can understand why there are so many chinese people respect Mao.

I can tell you the reason but I am sure you will refute that I am brainwashed. So I don'tthink I am great enough to change your opinion towards Mao…I am just a common Chinese.

No..ophilia, I wouldn't. I just want to make a discussion.

I respect ur right of opinion.  It is not matter of changing anyone's opinion, it is simple exchange of views. It is true that Mao was ur leader so it is entirely ur internal matter but as you he was an international figure, even today he is. Even in my country, every other day, we read his name in papers.

I just want to see the 'other' side of the coin.

kingkangstar,

Man, don't be so aggressive.

BTW, I appreciate ur love for ur motherland.

It is true that you and Vietnamese could rebuff the imperialists in way that anyone would envy.

But my point was not that.
