    1. "The China Post Staff" could also mean: 1) Most of the info was taken from a press release and/or 2) the writer doesn't have a work permit to work there (but that's usually "Special to the China Post)

    2. Michael,

      Great blog site. China's influence on the international media is growing and we need more people like you to tell the other side of the story.

      Keep up the great work.
