I saw this discussion with a name“ China earthquake so many die, and ——”. The discussion starter Mr or Ms. Wisconsin26 said that she/he saw a piece of news on Yahoo that our government don't give food to those people in disaster area. Nonsense. If you are a Chinese, if you have experienced the earthquake, if you see the newspaper, watch TV, or if you have friends near the disaster and above all you're a mylotter, please go to this discussion, and tell her the truth.
Tell her the real truth to stop her from insulting our government.

I think this person is getting confused with the Junta in Burma rather than this latest disaster. I hope you have gone in and corrected her but I will try to take a look and go in and explain the best I can Lynettebyc, emotions of your people are very high right now try not to get too upset eh! Big Hugs. My thoughts and prayers are with all that have been affected by this. Ellie :D

Hello, Ellie and Wisconsin26. Thanks for clarification, now i understand the discussion much better. Yeah, ellie, I have gone in and correted Wisconsin26 and here i'd like to apologize to Wisconsin for my rude resposes, you know, i was very confused and angry when i saw the discussion. All Chinese have united to fight th battle, everyone try their best to help victims in disaster-hit area in any way possible. And at that moment, i saw the discussion, you can imagine my fury, right?
That's all right, Wisconsin26. There's an old saying in China, people can't be friends until they fight. Acutally we didn't fight,huh? But we are friends now.
Hello, friends! Good luck to you and to all Chinese, to all the people in the world, live peacefully and happily

Hi Lynettebyc. Big big hugs to you, I can't even begin to imagine the thoughts and feeling you are going through right now but you know you and your people are in my thoughts. I did explain that because you were emotional right now that is why you have seen things in this way but Wisconsin intentions were good bless. I am sure she will accept your apology the same as you have accepted hers. People react and respond in differnt ways at times like this. All you need to know right is that our thoughts are with you all. God bless. Ellie :D

No one needs to come to my discussion and make any replies. Honest they were all rude comments, I made a mistake and had a mix up.. In no way was I being mean or rude but this, honest it was a concern for the people in China and where this was actually happening.. People are allowed to make mistakes cause if they don't than they aren't human or at least that is what I've been told all my life.. So Lyn all I ask you to do is accept my apology for the misunderstanding...

Hi Wisconsin, Thanks for responding. I know Lynette bless obviously is very upset at the moment and as I explained to her it was a misunderstanding as I myself am in shock re both situations and I appreciate that your thoughts were for the all the people that had been affected. I agree we all make mistakes and we learn from them and I am sure Lynettebyc will accept the apology when she comes back on line. Thank you for being so humble as to admit it. Many wouldn't have done eh! I admire you for that. Ellie :D

Hello, wisconsin26. It's fine, the only thing i want is to clarify the situation, to tell the truth. I'm totally touched by our government and compatriots high spirit to save the victims. And i don't mean to rude, maybe i'm a little bit overacted, please understand my feeling at that right momnet.
And you're great to admit you misunderstanding, i mean, lots of people can't do this kind of thing.
Let's forget this episode and pray for people in disaster-hit area.
Enjoy life

I am a Chinese. In fact I replied to two of Wisconsin26's discussions about this issue. I both replied to these two discussions in long responses. And I noticed that most people in the responses told Wisconsin26 what she learned isn't the truth. I didn't see any serious insults towards her. And Wisconsins26 shall be much more understanding why we will be annoyed.
All of us are trying all means to save people or help them. We feel very hurtful as she covered this truth. Although her later discussion explained that it was a mistake. The news she saw isn't China, it's Myanmar. Frankly, I don't understand why she would confuse this. As I think her own language is English. China and Myanmar are quite different words.
I keep telling Wisconsin26 the truth. If she thinks my words are insulting, that doesn't make a sense. If people can't donate anything, that's fine. If they can't even pray for those suffering people, that's fine, too. It's better for them to keep silent rather than spreading the rumors.

Hello, youless. I don't know how did she make the mistake, as i can't open the video in my computer somehow. Maybe she's not mistaken the name, you know, the pictures show like powerpoint slide, and when one picture goes by, the words may still exist, that's possible. I guess we should go there and see with our own eye.
She apologized at least, so i accept her apology. I just want to tell her or all the people what the truth is, without fake news, without bias.
We all love China.

Yes, loveusher, i do know that. I kept watching TV without doing anything when i was at home these days. I cared about my compatriots and have donated with my best to help those miserable people. We are trying our best.
Good luck to China.

I'm glad that our country reacted to this disaster so quickly to avoid the great mess which was very likely to happen in the ruined area. Don't be another New Orleans
