A crucial historic time for China
For a long time, analysts said China was in danger but we never saw this kingdom was going to lose vigor and collapse. However, several recent civil riots occurring in China provide live support for the analysis. It is true that China is now getting more and more polarized and corruptions are prevailing and upgrading. The social basis formed for the leftism over years has been consolidating. It is a critical time for China’s partisans, the rightists and leftists.
Bo, the secretary of Chongqing Municipal Committee, an influential figure in the political community, is now facing perhaps the greatest challenge in his personal life. Bo is a man who knows his mind very well. He has a clear-cut personality, and enjoys demonstrating explicit his leftist political orientation. This made him a very popular political star and won for him a shiny political fame. He had been taken as one of the VIPs, who share the same aspiration of steering the giant dragon-ship named China. Obviously, he had planned his political future by doing such things as “Singing red songs and sweeping the black gangs”, and “Formulating the Chongqing Mode”. But what happened recently would probably prove that all his efforts could be futile.
This is arousing a plenty of sympathy with Bo. I myself tend to identify his political points though having some reservations. A society is like a patient, something fatally bad needs to be removed by receiving operation. It is not working for a failing patient to wish for good health by simply taking some mild medicines. Even so, the resulting cost would be too expensive, and most importantly nobody has that patience to wait and see the result. Social justice is not something which can be earned without experiencing pains or sacrifices. With all the other options tried and confirmed to be useless, good doctors know what to do for the patient, who needs recovering the good health to make a better living.
Year 2012 is destined to be a crucial time for China, the members of the new standing committee need to be put in place this year. For the first time in the history, year 2012 would let China see one brand-new General Secretary in “office” and two top leaders in “retirement”. It is the time for the two retirees and aids to show will and strength. It is nothing unnatural that the keen PK is ongoing both on and under the desk.
It should take no long to be surely clear about who would finally hold the wheel guiding China, and who would lose the wrestle. But my real concern is who on the earth would like to put the same confidence on this mysterious government. You think so?
