The first photo is at Koh Pich Exhibition Center in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Nothing to do with anti-Chinese event in Argentina.

Re: Chinese Daily Photos, Videos & News of 2013!!!

I fixed kwaigonegin post. There was a police strike in Argentina that's how the violence started. When there's no rule of law people drop down to the last common denominator.

The US also doesn't have the kind of population base that China does. China is already experiencing horrible pollution problems (think of the smog in Shanghai only a week ago...). And one of the main contributing factors is the vehicle exhaust. And cars are getting cheap and people are getting rich in China. That means if permitted, majority of the people in China can afford cars and will buy one (perhaps multiple ones if permitted). Look at the pollution problem and traffic jam that are occurring in China now and think about what the traffic jam and pollution will be in the future if there is no quota. Something has be to done. Otherwise, 10 years from now, LA and San Fransisco will get the smog floating from China and everyone in the world will blame China for creating such problem by allowing everyone to buy cars. So there is no winning for China: putting a quota in place --> freedom issues; no quota in place --> messing up the world's environment...

Thank you..China needs to do something about vehicle emissions. It has been done in the US.

I found this article interesting..a little dated but...click the link for the full article.

The number of cars on the world's roads surpassed one billion last year, according to a study that has spurred debate on what the rapidly-growing car population will mean for the world's economy and environment.

According to a report from Ward's Auto released last week, the global number of cars exceeded 1.015 billion in 2010, jumping from from 980 million the year before.

Not surprisingly, China led the way in vehicle growth, with the number of cars on Chinese roads increasing by 27.5 per cent, amounting to half the entire global growth.

That gives China the world's second largest car population, with 78 million vehicles. But the United States still constitutes by far the largest vehicle population in the world, with 239.8 million cars, the Ward's study reported.

In fact, China would have to increase the number of cars on its roads nearly sixteen-fold to equal the number of cars in the U.S. on a per capita basis. Ward's reports that there are 1.3 people for every car in the U.S., while in China there are 6.75 people per vehicle.

If China were to have as many cars per capita as the U.S., its fleet alone would amount to approximately one billion cars.

But while China's car population has been exploding, the U.S. has seen a less than one per cent increase in its vehicle population, roughly in line with most developed economies.

Good afternoon all. This is one of those ugly racial things that trouble me a lot. Back in the 1990s President Carlos Menem was basically selling Argentine citizenship to anyone willing to pay the 10k to 20k in bribes. Many Chinese paid to obtain Argentine citizenship as a way of circumventing the quota of Chinese immigrants to the United States (yes in the 1909s Argentine citizens could immigrate to the US much easier than now).

When the USA shut the door on emigration from Argentina, may tens of thousands of Chinese where stuck in Argentina. So they made a go of it and became very successful. Most of then opened small mini markets and retail stores selling local and Chinese made products. They became so successful that their children went on to become doctors, lawyers and other professionals. Many poor (and lazy) Argentines became jealous and resentful of their success (of course not realizing the hard work that is involved). These stores and individuals then become the first places hit during the summer riots and when the poor don’t get want they want from Cristina K.

The Chinese Argentines are protesting for more security from the authorities.
