Well, one stone can start with ripples and end in waves. Recently, China is has been under huge pressure from the public’s opinion. It’s not the first time that the “Occupy Central” event has happened in Hong Kong, but this time it caused a big impact referring to the political discussion that we had never seen before: “Democracy”, “Freedom.” These words were frequently reported in the newspaper and other forms of media. On the other hand, other opposing headlines included: “occupy disrupts social order.”
 
More and more different voices have come up and added to the already roaring fire. One such voice raised a challenging question: “Is there only one way in this world to govern ourselves by building a democratic elections system?” There is a Chinese old saying, “For matters under heaven, those closely involved cannot see as clearly as those outside.” When everyone dropped into this farce, people

One of the most “visited” places in Shanghai is the famous fake market. There you will find pretty much anything you want: watches, bags, shoes, headphones, or any kind of electronic devices.

Of course, as its name suggest, everything is fake. That way, you will be able to bargain and manage to pay much lower than the originals product’s price, but again, it is all fake so don’t expect any warrantee or for a refund in case of a malfunction. You get what you’ve paid for, not one bit more.

What is the opposite expression of a ´silver lining´? The dark side? On the other side of the world, Brazil and other countries are enjoying the patriotic enthusiasm surrounding the FIFA World Cup 2014. While the streets also flood with many demonstrators who criticize the fortune invested on stadiums and FIFA related infrastructure when the population suffers from lack of food, clean water, and reliable transportation amongst other basic needs. Meanwhile, right here in Shanghai on metro line 1, a modern recurring tragedy has taken place.  This event occurred on the same day as the first kick-off the World Cup. A young man was slapping an old man’s face, followed by kicking in his stomach in the subway despite the man´s age and state (a beggar). It has been semi-officially reported that this young man had donated money to the old man but soon regretted his generous gestures. He asked the beggar for the money back defending himself with “a professiona
