Your Opinion Matters

Dear CCTV9, I truly enjoyed your Dialogue special on Chinese Literature Translations. As a recent U.S. college grad with an English & History degree, I can honestly say that Chinese culture is still very unknown to Americans. And now I know that even those that were Asian studies majors did not understand what they were reading.I think it is extremely important to export Chinese Culture to the west so that students like my younger sister do not grow up with that air of fear that I had when I was in school. This was because all the information we had was the Confucius Analects and the Cultural Revolution, very little was taught to us about Modern China. A true shame, as everyday I am here I learn something new that I want to share with my friends in the West.So send us books! Send us Fashion Magazines! Anything! Best,Alison

The programs from Mrs Wei on the enviroment conference are excellent and very informative and excellent. Because of that effort we have a good idea of what is happening there. Programs are non- excistant here. Thank you very much.

Tian Wei,While visiting Shanghai this summer, I was suprised at the number of Chinese smokers. Why is this? One thing I noticed was that a pack of cigarettes in China do not have the same health warning that a similar pack of cigarettes have in America. Why is there a difference in the health warning depending on the country one is in?Anthony Smith
