oh dear Adam & Dave the worn out joke

Adam, go over there as an representative of a Japanese company, and see how you are 'managed' by part officials pretending to be suppliers, offered bribes, lied to over production and comprehensively messed around when you ask some very relevant and uncomfortable questions. Oh ,and to make it incredibly easy for you to realise that the comment didn't apply to the entire nation - please, do try harder than that sixth-form riposte - he was referring to the people he met. Which was quite a few in number and over a number of years.

Of course, you'e been there a lot too as a representative of a Japanese company over some years and can speak from a vantage point of a lot of experience. oh........

Thanks for the second rate sarcasm Dave the 80's joke. You must have read my mind when you made that comment about Africa as he spent a year in Uganda doing charideeee work after leaving college. You're right that he can be a bit of a moron sometimes but hey, at least he got off his backside at some point unlike armchair sneerers such as you (or indeed me too really), eh?

Ministry of Transport?

What proves that the People's Republic of China is a dictatorship is that the Ministry of Transport will be deciding on whether or not more disciplinary action is in order. Excuse me? The official would already be in the hands of the local constabulary in any democratic, civilized nation; his being a "high-ranking official" would have utterly no relevance on the matter whatsoever.
