The American influence
Like it or not, America has profound influence on the world, from culture, entertainment, to how business should be conducted. The Jap has the reality show for the longest time, it didn’t matter till the Americans begin to enjoy it. LD, laser disks were so popular in Hong Kong, didn’t matter either. America skipped that all together. When the bad Americans bombed the Chinese embassy in Belgrade, what stuck me odd was how the three dead were honored: their coffins was covered by the Chinese flags, just like the Americans - oh, they probably should, each of them got 1 million dollars .. how much each the family actually received is another story entirely. - I don’t mean any disrespect to or offend anyone. Just in comparison to how my mother’s death was dealt. Flag covered coffin? I’ve never seen that before. China would have ran out of fabic long time ago. The mid east is so so America-loving that their TV shows are like something right out of Manhattan taping room! Even the subject matter.
