ZF有没有反省过为什么老百姓宁愿相信小道消息也不相信ZF，为什么ZF的公信力如此之差？你整天好事天天宣传，阴暗面总是藏着掖着，不是撒谎就是来个文 字游戏，这种事情干多了，还有谁会信任你？不要整天抱怨老百姓人云亦云（他怎么不跟着你ZF云呢？），好好反省自己的行为。遗憾的是我觉得ZF还没有清醒 的认识到这个问题，更加没有反省这个问题，因为藏着掖着的事件还是时时发生，并似乎已经是一种惯例和ZF的固有办事方式了，自食其果。
ZF失去了公信力要维持统治只有更加依靠国家暴力机器了。要治载舟之水，是靠大禹的疏导之法，还是用鲧的封堵之法，目前政府还有机会选择。
不是说所有的公务员都很黑，有一些甚至很善良，但有不少公务员认同ZF的暗箱操作方式，以为只要ZF的出发点是好的，暗箱操作更有效，殊不知暗箱操作为某 些人提供了一个怎样的土壤，其副作用太大，无异于饮鸩止渴。善良的老百姓也不要抱怨“政令不出ZNH”，ZNH的人也要想想为什么你的政令效率如此低下？ 因为你ZNH的政令自身就在鼓励暗箱操作，就在变相培养腐败沃土。只治标不治本是无用的。
China’s new railway through Tibet
Jul 4th 2006
From the Economist Intelligence Unit ViewsWireHOWEVER questionable the political logic behind China’s new railway linking the city of Golmud in Qinghai province with Lhasa, the capital of Tibet, the practical achievement is a formidable one. Built at a cost of around $4.2 billion, and opened for passenger service this week, the railway runs for 1,140 km at an average elevation of 4,000 metres—the highest railway in the world, and one of the most difficult to build, requiring long sections of elevated tracks over unstable permafrost, and scores of bridges and tunnels.
As a prestige project for China’s ruling Communist Party, the railway compares with the Three Gorges Dam on the Yangzi, and with the national space programme. It is meant to boost tourism and trade in the region, and to help with mining of Tibet’s rich deposits of coal, copper, gold and zinc. Those things should make Tibet less reliant on aid from the central government, a mainstay of the local economy ever since the Chinese army asserted central control over Tibet in the 1950s.
All this assumes the line can be kept in good shape. It crosses an active seismic zone, and long sections are built on or above frozen ground saturated with water that can rise or fall by metres as the temperature changes. Experts foresee the need for a big overhaul within as little as ten years. At the very least, maintenance will be difficult and expensive.
China sees the railway as a first step towards expanded trade links with the South Asian subcontinent. On July 6th China and India will re-open the Nathu La pass, resuming border trade between southern Tibet and India’s north-eastern state of Sikkim for the first time in 40 years. There is even talk, speculative for the moment, of integrating road and rail networks to allow Chinese goods to travel via Tibet to bigger markets in Bangladesh and in the Indian state of West Bengal.
Even as the Chinese government touts the railway as a successful development project, international activists and Tibetans-in-exile are critical. If trade and tourism take off, they argue, most of the benefits will accrue to Lhasa’s rapidly expanding population of Han Chinese, who control most of the tourist industry as well as most trade between Tibet and the rest of China. Most of the construction companies benefiting from the railway are from eastern China, and the same is likely to be true for mining companies now hoping to use the railway to facilitate their operations in the region. The railway also seems sure to accelerate Han migration to Tibet, which could further stir resentment among the Tibetan population.

今天一早就是如此，很奇怪，用FireFox虽然可以浏览，但是排版是乱的。Admin的页面也无法通过IE进入，甚至看不到用户名和密码的输入界面。回家以后又一切正常了，不确认是我办公室机器的问题，还是wordpress的问题。得想办法备份了。
更新2006.5.8：换了一个Theme，结果中文blog一堆乱码，真可气。但是怎么备份呢？郁闷。
