Gordon Chang's remarks on Egypt and China in CNN

I should have sent this comment a couple of days ago when Gordon Chang made his remarks on CNN International News. Even though his surname is spelled  as Chang, but his Chinese name(章) is different from ours, thank God. I read his book nine years ago and several times since. The more I read, the more I am disgusted by it. It is so superficial and full of innuendos that can distort the true reality in a way beyond a serious scholar's imagination. I tried to read the book and listen to what he said in a more objective way and from his perspective, but I can't help, but to inveigh against his views and what he represents in attacking China and its people unfairly.

To the editor of CNN:

I do not believe CNN News would interview Gordon Chang and let him making comparison between Egypt and China. Gordon Chang's book "The Coming Collapse of China" has been published for almost ten years.All the predictions he made did not materialized, and yet he is appearing in Western news media as" the" expert on China's demises so to speak. If I were him, I would hide myself and shut up when any one of those naive Western news people tries to interview me on the subject.He should be feeling shameful about his superficial and shallow analysis concerning China and its people. He is simply not qualified to make comments on the subject who was trained as a lawyer without enough knowledge and understanding about China and the civilization. Please find someone else to do the comments when it is needed, but not Gordon Chang again. Tell him to study more and read attentively Martin Jacques's book entitled "When China Rules the World", a bad title, but a worthwhile book in terms of China's future
