Caring - 2016-02-29

Apparently, four out of five missing Hong Kong booksellers say they have been arrested for "illegal trading". The delayed and unclear information about the missing people suggests a worrying trend in the nation where one has to be careful about what s/he says. A billionaire may lose a quick 40 million for criticizing his government; an employee may be dismissed for providing his/her view on the company/school regardless where s/he comes from. This seems a tough nation to deal with and it ought to be well noted that speaking out may be one of the worst things to do here. Opening up to the Chinese market may have been one of the biggest mistakes of the modern era.
