For whom the bell tolls
Following Beijing's ongoing facelift is easy, it seems that almost a quarter of all stories to be found in the capital's English press are in some way related to the city's "elixir of youth" campaign, whether they concern demolitions of substandard housing or elderly evictions from the CBD.
Many of these stories sound incredible because of the numbers involved, and their scale usually numbs my emotions.
But when I heard about the Drum and Bell Towers project, I grew angry.
