Administrative rules change economy

1. In China, to operate a business, you need a government license. Sound reasonable.
2. To obtain a government license, you must have a unique business address of a "suitable" location of a "suitable" size commensurate with the registered capital.  Sounds reasonable.

3. When a large company wants to register wholly owned subsidiary, each subsidiary must have its own unique business address, whether the extra space is needed or not.

4. Think about a holding company with huge capital, hence large office space, but not much action.            It can't sublet its own empty space to its subsidiaries which do the real work.  All of them must rent their own office space.

5. A strange phenomenon of huge number of rented but empty office towers is born.

浸大民調風波

浸大校長重申民調風波事件毋須繼續調查 - Yahoo!

此事最特别的是不見学術人士討論未完成數據收集公佈結果對最終結果的影響,
請问在結果公佈後所收集的數據,會否受已公佈結果影響?

如公佈结果对後来收集數據有影響,則提早公佈结果对這民調的学術質素有負面影響,即此院長不顧学術,祇要面子,實為破壞学術.

How did Hoekstra Get So Much Wrong ?

Letter from China: How Did Hoekstra Get So Much Wrong? : The New Yorker
This journalist made a rookie mistake.  So mainland Chinese are not impressed.  So what. They can't vote against Hoekstra.  As long as those who can vote get the message, that's all that counts.

溫家寶在廣東談保障選舉權

明報即時新聞網-兩岸---溫家寶在廣東談保障選舉權 (21:05)-20120205
宝哥哥還是放眼優秀人材,而不是人民意願,還是說要相信農民,不是要農民相信,他对選舉的認識還是很少,很皮毛.共和國離民主還是很遠很遠.

當人民可以選自己相信會為自己發聲,維護和争取自己的權益和幸福的,纔會明白選舉的功用.

加強財富監管能遏止中國老闆移民?

明鏡新聞網: 加強財富監管能遏止中國老闆移民?

1. You can get money out by shipping goods overseas,  and instruct the buyers to credit a foreign bank account for the payment.  This is a well practiced technique used by overseas Chinese, especially in SE Asia for centuries.

2. How can you tell legitimate investment from those aimed at subsequent exit ?

3. People leaving is not the problem.  There are plenty where these came from. Capital leaving is.  But Chinese SEOs lead the charge in moving capital overseas by buying foreign assets, many at multiples of market price.  Do as I say, not what I do ?

4. You can stop the people, but you can't stop the death and reincarnation of firms overseas.

5. Why are the Chinese rich getting out ?  Rats from a sinking ship ?  Personal safety an issue ?  How come European rich not going anywhere ?

英女王下周鑽禧登基

明報新聞網-國際-國際新聞--英女王下周鑽禧登基-20120204

鑽禧登基?這是火星文還是木星文.報章的文字功夫至此,吾不欲觀之矣.

實應為"登基鑽禧".

只需最優秀移民

明報新聞網-國際-國際要聞--雙語金句﹕英官:只需最優秀移民-20120204
“Britain does not need more migrant middle managers, any more than it needs unskilled labour. We do need top of the range professionals, senior executives, technical specialists, entrepreneurs and exceptional artistic and scientific talent."

Time for people to understand immigration is a privilege, not a right, a nation/state's strategy, not a welfare program.  Even family reunification should not be a right, but should be a privilege with humanitarian overtone.
