Subject: The Chinese who haven’t yet all figured out that the "Cola Wars" have replaced the "Opium Wars" say that when you open your window not only do you get a breath of fresh air but you also let in the flies.

 

Dear Ms. Kakani,

 

I read with great interest your recent article that appeared on the kitco website titled, "How Bernanke Can Sink the Emerging Markets".

 

I just returned from a 24 day "fact finding" trip to China and would like to share with you my thoughts before bringing Public International Attention to how extraordinarily wrong you are with your conclusion, "... Bernanke can sink the emerging markets with a stroke of his pen."

 

My goal is not to be "argumentative", instead to give you a "Heads up" why only those "sh*t talkers" [sic] I met in Hong Kong, the "money capital of the world" are counting on you to "talk down" the thriving "independance" [sic] of most of the Chinese people waking up to the fact that the British who hooked the Chinese on opium in order to steal their tea haven’t really changed their "spots".

 

One cannot find many if any leopards on the island of Hong Kong given how "uninhapitable" [sic] are the high-rises for animals apart from rats and the such but if you were fortunate like me to have spent time with a couple of Traders, one a South African Brit and the other his Russian mafia partner, you would not only come away with a very different opinion but very possibly quite angry with yourself for at a minimum not taking the time out of your busy schedule to do the type of "due diligence" that is needed to give westerner's a "fighting chance” even those few not hooked on sugar nor forgetful to avoid aspartame at "all cost".

 

With all that said, it is possible that you have also not heard much if anything about American 5 Star General Stilwell who is a "National Hero" in China and once you have the answer to this rather SIGNIFICANT oversight by our parents and educators so in the next instant might you decide to take a fast boat to China.

 

I look forward to hearing from you.
