- Posted by chocolate_girl on March 7th, 2006
Dear Google and users,
Please discuss internet issues, freedom and privacy in China.
Cisco is also causing problems with Chinese democrocy with their
dealings with the Chinese government. I believe that Cisco
manufactures equipment for the internet
I believe that China issues with American internet companies need
discussion. These companies like MSN, Yahoo and Google need o follow
Chinese constitutional law. These American internet companies are
using technological advance to undermine the development of
democracies. I believe that these As a shareholder in these companies,
I have tried to voice some of these concerns. I have some policy
writings on China.
Please let me know if you have comments.
Sincerely,

======================
Hello. I live in the United States and my parent are Indian immigrants.
I want to respond to your questions.
I think that the decay of Western civilization came from too much
corruption in the culture and government which was not being exposed or
discussed properly. I also think that there may have been some
meritocrocy problems with certain minorities. There were also problems
with excessive amounts of elitism and excessive amounts of greed.
I think that problems have been admitted with cultural identity crisis
relating to Western influence on societies like Japan.
I think that there was a huge problem with people feeling thinking
Americans were very special and very unique in any regard.
I also think that many problems resulted from an environment within the
culture which was not supportive. I also believe that this lack of a
supportive environment contributed to narcotics problems. These
narcotics problems also contributed to higher crime rates and higher
rates of violence. The history of Western culture, leadership, and
society has a tendency to be much more violent compared to other
civilizations.
I believe that decay worsened in recent years under the dominance of
leadership of theocrocy and dominance of religious influence in
society. I believe that people must sacrifice a little bit for the
benefit of the collective community. I believe that the American
economy is excessively towards consumption. I also know that the
resources in the safety net system were shifted from government to
religious institutions, which may have caused problematic shifts in
political leadership.
The sociology of the culture needed much improvement due to problems
with complexity resulting from excessive sorrowful stratification.
There were also serious problems in the political culture. When people
talk to Americans, they ideally need to be better off than when they
started the conversation. I know that there were many sorrowful
cultural problems relating to authority figures and language. I heard
this from a professor.
The wealth creation culture needed furthur improvement.
These meritocrocy problems can speed decay of civilization. I also
believe that there may have been problems within breakdown of work and
study ethics. I also believe that there may have been a breakdown in
culture due to excessive amounts of economic prosperity. I believe that
many of these factor caused decay. However, I am an outsider in this
regard.
I also believe that family problems resulting from gender issues may
have caused significant problems within the culture, politics, and
people. I also believe that divorce resulted from excessive homicidal
tendencies. I know that there were problems with execution, shattering,
bonding and contracts within intercultural relations. There were also
many issues involving comparative history and religion. There also was
a problem with excessive commericalization and excessive marketing
corruption. The business culture within the United States needed much
improvement.
I also believe that there is a problem when people put more importance
on money instead of people. There is also a problem when people put
technology and profits instead of people.
I think that Japan had huge problems with deflation. It hink that they
may have had problems with balance of trade. I also believe that
monetary resources from high savings rates were improperly channeled
into a problematic banking system. I believe that the investment and
financial system within Japan may not have been fully developed as
Western financial companies.
The Japanese labor market was also problematic due to lack of
acceptance of immigrants. An aging population in Japan caused labor
market shortages.
Japanese governance culture would not emphasize enough competition of
political parties, ideas, and leadership.
The state of the Japanese political system was described as unable to
handle a situation when the traditional methods of advancement are no
longer effective and more modern ways of doing business are necessary.
Japanese culture would not allow creative destruction or any litigation
within the confines of their culture. So, these cultural problems may
have contributed to some of the economic problems within Japan.
The problems with American manufacturing mainly result from the higher
cost of living in the United States.
The American government passed a stricter law on bankruptcy to change
this culture of borrowing and repayment of debt.
There must be a balance between happiness and sadness. There also must
be inclusion, scholarship, communication and openness of ideas towards
a greater media culture.
I also believe that there should be transparency and accountability in
government. I also believe that constitutional law must be respected
for all citizens. I believe that transparency and accountability in
the Chinese government will lead to better governance which will be
very important issue for China in the shorter-term and longer-term.
The responsibility of governance cannot be ignored by citizens of good
character. I believe that we will need to culture of enlightenment,
logic and wealth accumulation to move forward. I believe that
sprituality must be encouraged to prevent breakdown in clean societies.
I believe that religious institutions can prevent moral breakdown and
family breakdown.
I also believe that interfaith dialogue is necessary in media culture.
I also believe that Asian influence in media is gaining significance in
the United States.
However, we are also in a generational transition and medium transition
in media, etc.
The work ethic must be channeled towards maintenence of a quality
healthcare system for all citizens.
Arrogance and dishonesty will lead to political ruin. The hard press
and the hard truth is difficult to differentiate. I also firmly believe
that free thinking ideas which will benefit the country should not be
suppressed. I also believe that people need to be willing to risk their
lives to accomplish greater accomplishments of worth.
Japanese nuclear destruction was precipitated by the fact that the
refusal to surrender to the American military forces. If the Japanese
were willing to surrender, there would should have been much less
destruction and bloodshed. I also believe that there may have been
cultural problems relating to the lack of building of trust between the
American and Japanese, which later caused significant problems in
relations.
I believe that the best course of action is proper engagement.
I believe that we need research and development to develop the
knowledge based approach to in furthur dealing with globalization. I
also think that proper political leaders need to chosen through some
democratic process who are knowledgeable enough to lead a country
through the transitions of globalization. I believe that communication
networks will need furthur development. I also think that we can
furthur develop broadband networks through greater integration
projects.
I believe that there may be serious problems with American capitalism
which must be addressed through governance, applied technology, and
applied research.
I also believe that we can develop a more nonprofit entrepreneurial
culture. However, companies with profit will tend to last much longer.
But, I believe that consumerism can be furthur developed to benefit the
economy of many different countries. I have heard that the consumerism
in India is strong.
I believe that people can change for the better to improvement and
betterment of their lives, families, and societies. I believe that
people can have cultural renaissance. I also believe that people can
accept specific ideas from other cultures which are useful and
practical. I believe that the sorting through of issues involved
Eastern civilization and Western civilization are unique to
individuals, people and cultures. This process may be lengthy, arduous,
and gradual for many involved persons. However, this process can move
smoothly provided that Western origins, culture, and influences are
respected in the philosophy which is chosen for Western peoples which
are including some Eastern values.
I believe that many bridges must be built. I believe that these bridges
can be unique for area under discussion and these bridges should
maintain their strength from the quality of applied engineering.
I think that people respected higher technology medicine above lower
technology medicine in the healthcare system. I also believe the
influence of corporate interests in the healthcare system provided a
huge source of corruption and decline. There was a total lack of
adequate public service in the judiciary relating especially to
campaign finance.
The media culture was far too focused on the personal lives of public
officials instead of governance aspects of public service. The
educational system declined. I believe that religious problems were not
well enough understood amongst political leftist leaders, which I
believe caused significant problems.
I believe that the problems with manufacturing related to Japan in the
United States resulted from problems with adoption of lean
manufacturing techniques.
I know that energy problems need to be dealt with using
environmentalism, renewable energy sources, and alternative fuels. The
huge demand for petroleum and fossil fuels from China and India will be
disruptive for prices and supply of these energy. These inadequate
sources of energy also contribute to international security problems
relating to terrorism and Islamic fundamentalism.
I know that population does not determine national security. However, I
believe that technological superiority is more significant determining
issues for national security.
I think that bigger problem is the problems that China is facing
currently with internet companies Yahoo, Google and MSN.
In science fiction novels of Isaac Asimov, there is a character in his
novel who realizes that he must become a king and save the civilization
from entering the dark ages. This king must also save the civilization
from collapse due to cultural corruption
Sincerely,
Lilia Mallik
