		China was militarily capable of taking Hong Kong any day she chose: and even if, improbably, she respected the perpetual treaty, the island could scarcely be maintained if water and other essential supplies from the New Territories were cut.

	Confucius [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		Better known in China as "Master Kong" (Chinese: Kongzi), Confucius was a fifth-century BCE Chinese thinker whose influence upon East Asian intellectual and social history is immeasurable.
		Even the Communist regime in China has bowed reverentially to Confucius on occasion, although not without vilifying him first, especially during the anti-traditional "Cultural Revolution" campaigns of the late 1960s and early 1970s.
		Today, the Communist government of China spends a great deal of money on the reconstruction and restoration of old imperial temples to Confucius across the country, and has even erected many new statues of Confucius in areas likely to be frequented by tourists from overseas.

	China: "We Could Disappear At Any Time": III. The Petitioning System
		Petitioning is an indigenous cultural and legal tradition that has long buttressed a rigid hierarchy.
		In practice, the petitioning system is overwhelmed by the quantity of complaints, while officials often have a disincentive to process complaints about their misdeeds or those of their colleagues.
		Many petitioners who continue over the long term also have a deep-rooted faith in the Communist Party, and believe that a rational explanation of their case will receive a fair hearing, if they can only find an official highly-placed enough to be truly objective about their personal situations.

		HO CHI MINH CITY - With the policy-making, tenth National Party Congress looming up in mid-April, communist leaders are burying their differences to formulate a plan capable of lifting this country out of underdevelopment while ensuring that the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV) retains full control.
		The WTO sees the Hong Kong negotiations as one of its last chances for reaching final agreement on the Doha Round before the December 2006 deadline, in the wake of the resounding failure of the 2003 ministerial meet in Cancún, Mexico, and the breakdowns in dialogue since then.
		But some developing countries, civil society and farmers' groups want no deal to be reached in Hong Kong, saying that the kind of trade liberalisation sought by the WTO and rich nations undermines the livelihoods of smaller nations and poor communities.

		According to Nathan, the victory of the communists in 1949 further perpetuated an authoritarian regime which "could stabilize itself only temporarily by improving economic performance." When this faltered, its legitimacy "evaporated." However, Nathan believes that with its existence threatened by internal forces, communist rule may be forced to undergo reform, eventually leading to democracy.
		Taiwan is cited as an example that a legacy of repression does not work against the evolution of a free society if the leaders and citizens so choose.
		Nathan proposes a Constitutionalist Option under the communist framework, which would include rule of law, direct elections and judicial independence.

		Most of these movements, which gained momentum after the 1917 Revolution, whether they were anti-Bolshevik, such as the Basmachi revolts, or Pro-Bolshevik, such as the Muslim Communists, were essentially pan-Islamic and pan-Turkic in nature and had as their goal the establishment of an independent Turkic Muslim state.
		It is interesting to note that Stalin had previously vetoed an earlier request by Sheng to join the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), thus showing that the Soviet Union's concerns extended beyond merely ensuring that Xinjiang had a Communist government.
