China is suffering for its excessive development

When the late Deng Tsiao Ping initiated the economic reforms, the whole world praised him and the communist China government got carried away by praises pouring in from all parts of the world. It cut down trees, cleared forests, turned agricultural lands into industrial lots. The water catchements areas were destroyed. The environment was damaged. Worse, the communist China, in its quest to show off to the world, did everything to destroy the fauna and flora. The building of the three gorges dam severely damaged the water catchment areas.

Today, the Chinese are suffering the consequence. There are drought, heat wave and soaring temperature everywhere. Pollution is so acute that deadly deseases spread widely and the people are suffering from the intense heat and the unpredictable climatic changes which include sudden downpour, floods, famines, droughts and deseases.

The communist government, instead of stopping the clearing of forests, chops down more trees and is contemplating to build a railway from the southern China to South East Asia ,along the Mekong river, ending in Singapore. If this project kicks start, that will be the nightmare for all the people in South East Asia. I hope the Asean governments have the wisdom not to allow this project from taking shape and consequently destroy its environment for the short term economic gain. When the forests are destroyed, the whole Asean countries will be running out of water. The drought will be frequent . The pollution and the desease will wipe off the Asean people for their sins of damaging the environment.

The foolish communist China fears no God. Some ignorant and selfish westerners are praising the China government for its economic " miracles". One day, the economic " miracles" will turn into the most tragic mankind disasters.

If the Americans are serious to protect the environment and the earth, they should stop investing in China and punish China and other countries for the indiscriminate clearing of forests.

If the Obama`s administration is not doing anything to stop rampant developments in Asia, the stupid and greedy China government will clear all the forests in Asia. That will be the beginning of the end of civilisations!
