What China’s Xi Jinping thinks about freedom - The Washington Post
Washington Post 09/23/2015
"My father is Li Kang" has resonated over the Chinese internet as an apt description of the abuse of power and corruption in today's China, where high public officials are not accountable to the public. Intense focus on the Li case, where the son of a police official ran over two students on a university campus, made it possible to have a trial on lighter charges. In the absence of this media attention, says an attorney for the students, there may have been no trial.

The risk say experts in China is that this will reduce the chance for ventilating public opinion on important issues including discrimination against women, migrant workers, people with HIV/AIDs, social issues such as espoused by one NGO "Justice for All," increasing the prospect of protests later on. China's development depends on keeping the discussion open, more so to keep the faith of its own citizens, as it tries to evolve into a technologically advanced economy. Denyer refers to sources which describe Putin conveying his ideas about the protests in Ukraine to Chinese president Jinping. Jinping has to weigh this against the fact that Russia has aspired but not taken the action to develop an economy not dependent on commodity exports, and tech startups have withered in Russia in the post Ukraine climate without the open dialogue with foreign counterparts in Europe and America needed for technological advancement. Putin may have actually made a profound mistake by giving into his own nationalistic inclinations, when Russia's own interests to develop into an advanced technological economy and society is not served in any way by the acquisition of territory at its fringes- especially in a global economy and society. China's own interests also lie in continuing development so that there is no risk of ending up in a "middle income trap," that has faced other emerging market nations such as Mexico. China has another reason to consider- many Americans such as Mr. Zoellick are working with the National Development Reform Commission in NGO fashion to bring constructive progress in China's interest- with amazing dedication as it reorients is economy and society. Unfortunately for Mr. Putin and Russia the experience has been different in its early interactions leading to the collapse of the Russian ruble and the economy, with the exception of German cooperation, which has been steadfast and put at risk by Mr. Putin. All sides have a lot to consider, including Mr. Putin, who has received nothing but goodwill from the Ger

A Response to President Xi Jinping
New York Times 11/12/2014
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
