How amusing. Three British businessmen go to China and succeed against all the odds. Was this documentary produced by the same people who built the "Thames Towm" in China to entice British ex-pats to settle there?

I suggest watching "The Unseen China" on YouTube as a counter-corrective!

+ Anatomy of a bogus drug ad (2005.05): When I opened my paper yesterday evening, I discovered a garish four-page insert from a company called Warner advertising a product called "Shark" 帅克. My suspicions were aroused by the unnumbered pages and curious celebrity endorsements, and a quick survey of other news kiosks confirmed that this ad did not come from the Mirror distribution center.
