Dalian's Top 2: Entrepreneurialism & Social Responsibility
The two top issues at this inaugural ‘New Champions’ summit in Dalian, said WEF President Klaus Schwab in his concluding address, have been entrepreneurialism and social responsibility.
Hopefully, you’ll get in – which I couldn’t from Dalian. I wonder which words on the WEF site the censors didn’t like? Or was it just a question of the sheer pressure of online traffic? The extent of online censoring first struck me several days ago when, without thinking about it, I tried Googling Amnesty and several other NGOs for something I was writing, and found they didn’t come up. Just one small indication of the incredibly long march political and cultural march China still has to make if it is to even get within spitting distance of democracy, a term Chinese speakers here have often used in relation to their system – let alone sustainability.
