It must be one of the worst natural disasters this last decade, the earthquake which hit Sichuan province in China this May. For the individuals who lost there lives and homes it is a sad affair. The government on the other hand it has a double edge, on the one hand it has lost lives of its citizens and much of the infrastructure in the Province of Sichuan. But with its quick action and opening up to the world for help it has won a propaganda coup. No more news of human right abuses in Tibet or treats of a boycott of their Olympics.
