Other than that, I don't think there needs to be a stop to the entire live market business. Even if that were to be stopped, what about the pet market? The take-away is not the be scared of animals; it's to better manage the exposure to them. Regular items for the live market like chicken, fish, frogs, eel, shellfish, etc... should continue as it is a part of the excellence of Chinese culture and cuisine. But craziness spending huge amounts of money to eat odd, endangered animals like hellbenders, wolves, pangolins, peacocks, monkeys, anteaters, etc... should be strictly prohibited. There are no benefits to allowing this to continue, none to the consumers, none to the economy (as most of this money goes out of China), and certainly none to the wildlife. (Most of the times, they are consumed due to some superstition that eating such an animal will enhance libido.) Animals that are recurrent vectors for disease like bats and rodents should be banned from consumption as well.

Why is this a question for me? How should I know? Besides, biological sciences are not his expertise.

Firstly, let me say that we all respect everyone’s most fundamental right to express themselves and their freedom of speech. We absolutely do!

However, there is a huge difference between your freedom of speech and the appropriateness of your speech under certain grave situation.

Am I allowed to ask a lady her age? Of course I am! Should I get penalized for asking? No! Is it appropriate for me to ask? Absolutely no.

Am I allowed to curse my host when I’m invited to dinner? Of course I am. I have my freedom to express my feelings. Is it appropriate for me to be rude to my host? Absolutely not!

There is a difference between whether you are allowed to say something and whether it is appropriate for you to say it.

Of course, any Danish has his/her freedom to express their feelings. I would, however, like to remind my fellow Danish friends and the Madam Prime Minister, at this very moment, over 10,000 innocent Chinese people, ordinary Chinese people who have done no ill to anyone else and have done no wrong to any Danish, are fighting for their lives. Hundreds have died and countless may die later. I am talking about the lives of innocent ordinary people here! I ask this question: is it appropriate to joke about this situation by humiliating the national flag of these innocent people who are fighting for their lives?

Is it too much to ask that they should admit that they have done something inappropriate, even something cruel, to humiliate these poor innocent human beings while they are fighting for their lives.

Stop hiding behind of the banner of freedom of speech. Yes, you are allowed to express your feelings. However, it would be inappropriate to intentionally say something hurtful. Inappropriate!

Since when did they care about others' lives? They've been laughing at the developing world since the industrial revolution.


If the West actually wanted to help the world, they would've released all their research and technology. If they did that we would've solved world hunger and poverty long ago.

Deathtol may not be better than Norton.

Scientists warn there is NO evidence Dettol can kill the deadly Wuhan coronavirus after bogus conspiracy theories flood social media
  • The bottle label claims the disinfectant spray can 'kill human coronavirus'
  • A global outbreak of a lethal coronavirus strain has caused 9,900 to fall ill
  • Suggestions were made online to 'stock up' on Dettol to prevent and 'cure'
  • Experts said it is unlikely to be referring to the recently discovered strain
  • However, Dettol probably does shift bugs which cause the common cold

Don't be surprised that one day we would be put into concentration camps like the Japanese Americans. Many Chinese still believe in fairy tale that these westerners are more civilized.
