JEFF J. BROWN—An interview with the capable principals at the Rising Tide Foundation, Cynthia Chung and Matt Ehret on my recent book, “BIG RED BOOK ON CHINA”. As usual we do not expect such materials or truths to be given any space on the corporate media, except perhaps to denigrate them. So be sure to pass this on.
JEFF J. BROWN—it’s not just commie cabbies. Seeing communist symbols in taxis, tuktuks and places of business gives everybody in China a sense of trust and comradeship. This is a photo I took in a Beijing tuktuk, presented in The China Trilogy (see below). A Buddhist-like Mao medallion is hanging on the driver’s left. Below Mao’s image is a fresco of Tiananmen Gate, where his iconic portrait hangs in perpetuity.
JEFF J. BROWN—”60 Seconds over Sinoland” are direct reports, live from the streets of China. They put into perspective, with the West, China’s social, cultural and political context. China truly is the “Greatest Show on Earth” and when you understand its past, present and future, the headlines you read finally start to make sense. For 5,000 years, Asia’s enigmatic colossus has been and continues to drive world affairs, much more than Euranglolanders want to admit.
RAMIN MAZAHERI—No Western dynasty or power could compare with the combined size, scope and duration of their Chinese counterparts. In the US they say, “Everything is bigger in Texas” – I have been to China, and they should say: “Everything is 10 times bigger than in Texas, in China”. Stand before the terracotta warriors at Xi’an and you’ll see what I mean.
