People are all too easy to point fingers at Chinese and their "undue" influence on other smaller countries threatening local economy or culture..<BR/><BR/>But, how many of you westerners actually criticize the West or American influence in China itself in terms of driving out local business, certainly KFC or McDonald have their share; and threatening local Chinese culture, just look at how Westernized China has already become?<BR/><BR/>So China become westernized thats fine, but sinification of others are not OK.
