Stop pollution
Comments on "Ban slapped on polluting cities, zones" (China Daily, July 4)
China should adopt more anti-pollution and pro-environmental lifestyles and
technologies. In the future, such services and products will be highly valued
all over the world.

The recent spate of revelations of green algae growing unchecked in major
lakes, posing imminent danger to health and threats to life for millions of
residents who depend on the water sources, is a forceful reminder of the need to
control industrial pollution.

I think the situation in China now is the same as in Western countries. The
economy is well developed but our environment gets badly contaminated.
In the coming 20 years, we have to work hard to maintain a good environment
for our sons and grandsons.

Confucian wisdom
Comment on Raymond Zhou's column "Appreciate Guoxue as it is" ( China Daily,
June 30)
Confucianism is perfect for dealing with religious, racial, ethnic, and other
unreasonable social strife, so it's bound to prosper, because that's precisely
what the world currently needs.

Grandpa Chen Hui
My grandfather, Chen Hui (George Chen), accomplished a lot in his life. When
I was informed of his passing away, I was heartbroken.
His warm hugs always made me feel calm and relaxed, and he was always patient
with me. I could not, and cannot, accept the fact that he is not here to give
that wonderful hug to me again. He has been such a wondrous, inspiring
grandfather.
He used to be an interpreter for the very famous Mao Zedong and was also a
journalist/managing editor for the China Daily.
Chen Hui knew many people. Isaac Stern, a greatly loved violinist who made a
film called From Mao to Mozart, signed and wrote a message in one of his books
for my grandfather.
I will follow in my grandfather's footsteps, for one of my long-term goals is
to become a journalist.
