Olympic Buzz Bursts: Ordinary Citizens
The Middle Kingdom is about to throw open its gates to the outside world, but many still have questions about the nation's policies. What do ordinary citizens think? The BBC radio program, "World Have Your Say," features a few Chinese countrymen (and countrywomen, for that matter) who take on questions from around the globe. In this engagng format, they give their input about the one-child policy, put into relative terms how much money Tibet gets versus the average Chinese citizen, and give some history lessons on Taiwan. Listen to the exchange by checking the broadcast or podcast.
