Woman On Top

Finally, a Chinese from Hong Kong—and a woman—holds the top job in a major UN agency. I'm as ashamed as this "achievement" is remarkable. Makes me wonder if the adrenalin from this big promotion keeps Dr Chan awake at night more so than being haunted by 300 ghosts.

George W Bush's got a lot to learn from China on buying votes. Had Shih Ming-de seen what the world has come to earlier, he would've shrugged and said "The hell with it. Let Chen Shui-bian's wife keep her coupons, and throw in some extra gifts too."

Good luck world. It's a middle-aged woman behind the wheel, and this one's known for NOT signaling.
