But in public? From Wu Bai to Amei, i<br />feel it is best for singers to remain neutrual , no? agree or disagree? it is just money?<br /><br />-- Trevor in Old Blighty!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10698887.post-44272074551206964372012-01-10T23:14:10.907+08:002012-01-10T23:14:10.907+08:00Uh, Joe Hung, who used to write opinions and stuff...Uh, Joe Hung, who used to write opinions and stuff for the China Post, still writes editorial for the China Pest, unsigned as always, but you can tell when he writes them bc his style is so JOE. so not USED TO WRITE but WHO STILL WRITES opinions and stuff for the China Post,<br /><br />But yes, He's tres very reliable, in the way that Pravda and Xinhua are very reliable.<br /><br />As for Rob Schnedier hearts Tawian, that is pure hype, he got paid an appearance fee to show up for that PR blitz. it's BS, and he does NOT read your blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
