I didn't say these traits are unique to the Chinese. But I did imply that Chinese takeovers more often than not have this dishonesty in their negotiation. Greed and capitalism are not unique to any race. But, a Chinese negotiation has almost always got more contradictory action to what they say they are going to do. That is simply lying, not skilled negotiation Skilled and trusted negotiators are a very different animal to what we have seen here. You mention naevity, some have suggested gullability has been in the mindset of shareholders. This, as with discovery metals has involved dishonesty from the Chinese as their core practice. Peter Smedley of arrium promptly told the Chinese where to go when they knocked on his door. It saved the share price. You, yourself have said the Chinese can't help themselves. Racism takes many forms. The comment you made, although true, is also racist. You can't get a little bit pregnant. As for calling for moderation. You're a big boy, put your point forward! instead of crying to the referee. Now that is naive.
