While I am writing this blog entry, it is half an hour into the opening ceremony of the 29th Olympics Games in Beijing, China. Billions of people around the world will be watching this great event.
It is the very first time in the 5000 years of China that an Olympics Games is hosted in this ancient central kingdom, which went through more than a century of humiliation and defeat, at the brink of collapse of the country.
Now thanks to Deng Xiao-ping, who decided to open the country's door to the outside world, and brought this ancient aging country out of poverty, the modern China is a lot more strong in terms of her economic power, millitary power and political influence. A status that is only fit for a central kingdom.
Best wishes to the success of the 29th Olympics Games!
