China-Tibet Crisis

Now that the Olympics are over, China is slipping into another stage of marketing themselves as a bad quality controller of milk but yet with scientific advances (going into space again).

I have been thinking all this while about this crisis actually. Since young we have all been fans of Jing Yong's (the famous author) novels; these includes famous titles like "the flying fox of snowy mountain", "the Condor Heroes", "heaven sword and dragon saber." However, if you look closely at the culture of these shows, there isn't any show that have a Lama (Lamas are monks from Tibet)and is a good guy. The ultimate evil guy in "the Condor Heroes", "Jing Lun Fa Wang" is also a Tibetan monk. Lamas (from what I seen) is perhaps the most distinctive difference you can see between a Mainland Chinese and a Tibetan.

As a matter of fact, none of the shows I have watched in my entire life shows a kind and heroic Lama. So, it is actually quite evident that the social gap between mainland Chinese and Tibetans are quite huge since some time ago.

Even shows about the revolution near the end of the Qing Dynasty like "Huang Fei Hong" etc shows nothing good about these monks.

While generating these thoughts, I was lead into thinking of another possibility of the future. I think that in the future, globalisation will be so complicated that there would probably be lesser and lesser pure blood; which probably means that my great-grandson would probably be a Chinese, Malay, Japanese and Indian mix blood. Of course, there would still be a very small percentage of pure bloods living in their own herd; but they would probably make just a small percentage of the the human kind.

Look at the Olympics, even players of European countries, not to mention Singapore consist of players not just who are the children of their soil but also Chinese who were originally China. Soon, our world would probably be a huge plate of rojak with a lot of "you tiao" but little sauce.
