Happy 60th birthday to PR China and its people !
Yesterday, the world could see the big party and parades on Tiananmen Square.
The Chinese government is good in well organizing big public parties and knows how to ensure good weather!

The media including internet provides tons of information and comments about this birthday and China in general.
I decided to provide the following links on this occasion :
Ai Weiwei, contemporary Chinese artist, blogs another kind of birthday speech for his motherland about 60 years of shame and ignorance.
At the moment Ai Weiwei stays in Munich (Germany) where he got operated because of an injury that he claims happened during beiing beaten up by Chinese police. But the main reason is the upcoming opening of his exposition "So sorry" on October 12, 2009 at the Haus der Kunst in Munich.
Don't miss Ai Weiwei's article on Times Magazine reflecting on the subject.
