No argument that the Chinese government has a long way to go before we consider
China an open and free country. However as someone who lived in Hong Kong
during the cultural revolution, I have seen a lot of good progress on the part
of the Chinese in the past 3 decades. At the same time I have seen a lot of
regression in our own standards for openness and freedom.
