In spite of it all...

I was chanell hopping on my TV when I saw Yao Ming's interview calling for all his countrymates to be vigilant and have more patience with their present situation. This is all about the people's struggle to overcome the worst disaster China's facing this year.

I stay a little bit more on CCTV International to view the magnitude of damage the snow storm brought about and recall my senses that climate change is not a no no but for real.

A news segment of the program that day shows the market place with lots of people in cold, buying stuffs in preparation of the New Lunar Year festivities.

This clearly shows the social bonding a Chinese family have, rich or poor, with all respect to their culture, a reunion and feast on the most important day of the year, the traditional New Year's eve celebration.

Hoping this weather disturbances will ease down to mobilize all the prime neccessities and be distributed to all the affected areas concern. The restoration of power lines and transport so that our Asian friends may cope up on their day to day basic needs and utilities.

In spite of all this calamities, I still wish you all...good luck...
