People Helping People

The woman in the photograph is a police woman, the child is not hers. In the past couple of days she has breastfed a couple of children.

It sound sounds crass and insensitive, I know, but this earthquake will really boost China's reputation in the world. The government really has worked very hard to ameliorate the situation. They have been unbelievably open compared to their attitude re SARS and other recent catastrophes. And, as I tried to illustrate over the weekend, you know that the leaders are really involved in things. It may be - and probably is - PR, I know. But think of how involved Bush was re Katrina.
