Says it all, don't you think?

I'm keeping my hard earned money and staying out of it, the government is helping for me Via my tax donations.

Perhaps the Chinese just don't much care what the rest of the world thinks of them unlike several countries who are always desperate to be seen to be doing the right thing. It's great that these countries send aid and funds in times like this, but the cynical side of me suspects there's a component of politics and image to it rather than just humanitarianism. When a country is in debt does it really want to give money away, would they do it if no one was paying attention?

Transport is the problem, the train service is virtually destroyed. It's not too good at their end either. ;)
