Sanguine, are you sure Chinese have got along for 5,000 years? And, do you really believe people around the world should just ignore each other just because they are from different countries? The local authorities and leaders of all sorts around impose a hell lot on peoples people, don't they? You sound like one of those local farts posting out of a smoky Beijing room, where a pic of your leader's watching over your left shoulder.
Cheers and beers to Chinese that have got along so well and for such a long time :LOL
