Taking China to the world
China needs more understanding by the people of other countries, says an article in People's Daily. The following is an excerpt:
A speech of a Chinese student studying in France is popular now on the Internet. On April 19, at a demonstration themed, "Support Beijing Olympic Games, oppose media biases", a Chinese student from Xi'an, named Li Huan, made a long speech, making the Chinese present feel heartened and even catching the attention of many of the French. Also, his speech has moved millions of netizens back in his motherland.
Li said: "During this spell of demonization and distorted portrayal of China via the media, we, Chinese students, studying all around the world, feel hurt. Our feelings have been hurt. But we don't put the blame on French people, for those who should be responsible for this consequence are not you, but those irresponsible media and demagogues."
