In several cases, actual GDP did not correspond with that predicted by IQ. In these cases, the authors argued that differences in GDP were caused by differences in natural resources and whether the nation used a "planned" or "market" economy.

One example of this was Qatar, whose IQ was estimated by Lynn and Vanhanen to be about 78, yet had a disproportionately high per capita GDP of roughly USD $17,000. The authors explain Qatar's disproportionately high GDP by its high petroleum resources. Similarly, the authors think that large resources of diamonds explain the economic growth of the African nation Botswana, the fastest in the world for several decades.

The authors argued that the People's Republic of China's per capita GDP of roughly USD $4,500 could be explained by its use of a communist economic system for much of its recent history. The authors also predicted that communist nations who they believe have comparatively higher IQs, including the PRC, Vietnam, and North Korea, can be expected to gain GDP by moving from centrally-planned to market economic systems, while predicting continued poverty for African nations. Recent trends in the economy of the People's Republic of China and Vietnam seem to confirm this prediction, as China's GDP has grown rapidly since introducing market reforms. South Korea has a higher average IQ and a market economy. However, South Korea still has a lower GDP/Capita than many Western nations (but relatively high overal). Still, South Korea went from amongst the poorest nations in the world to advanced economy by recording among fastest growth rate in the world. Despite a supposedly higher average IQ and a market economy since the Meiji Restoration in 1867, Japan still has a lower GDP/Capita than many Western nations. Also, Sub-Saharan Africa is now having faster growth than Latin America and the Middle East, which seems to contradict the predictions.

The two most striking exceptions, however, may be Ireland and the United States. Ireland, whose average I.Q. is listed at 93, has the fourth highest per capita GDP (PPP adjusted) of any country in the world (after tiny Luxembourg, Norway and the United States).[7][8] The United States, with an average I.Q. of 98, has the third-highest per capita GDP (PPP adjusted), and is by far the most populous of the richest 10 countries. Both of these countries have I.Q. averages considerably below those of countries such as South Korea, Taiwan, and Germany, but have per capita GDPs about 1.5 times higher.

Kim Ung-Yong (born March 7, 1963) was a Korean child prodigy. He was able to read and write in Japanese, Korean, German, and English by his fourth birthday. At the age of four, on November 2, 1967, he solved complicated differential and integral calculus problems on Japanese television, demonstrated his proficiency in German, English, Japanese, and Korean, and composed poetry. Kim was listed in the Guiness Book of World Records under "Highest IQ"; the book estimated the boy's score at "over 200."

Kim was a guest student of physics at Hanyang University from the age of three until he was six.[1]. At the age of seven he was invited to the United States by NASA.[1]. He finished his university studies, eventually getting a Ph.D. in physics at Colorado State University [1] before he was 15. In 1974, during his university studies, he began his research work at NASA[1] and continued this work until his return to Korea in 1978.

When he returned to Korea, he decided to switch from physics to civil engineering and eventually received a doctorate in that field. Kim was offered the chance to study at the most prestigious universities in Korea, but instead chose to attend a provincial university.

As of 2007 he also serves as adjunct faculty at Chungbuk National University.

China did well by tibet

A Chinese student in France, watching the recent Olympic protest in Paris, reported the following on his blog: A French girl, aged five or six, asked her mother why people were trying to snatch the Olympic torch from Chinese athletes.

Her mother replied: " The Chinese have occupied Tibet by force for 50 years. Those protesters want to take this chance to express their wish for freedom."

The Tibet Autonomous Region, like Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, is one among China's 34 provincial administrative regions. No government in the world denies this fact. Neverthless, the French mother imparted her perception of Tibet as " occupied " to her child.

The French celebrated enthusiastically the Chinese Cultural Year in 2003. Why, suddenly, has a wall appeared between China and the West ?

The trigger was the riots in Lhasa on March 14. Rioters destroyed 908 shops , seven schools, 120 residential homes, five hospitals and 10 banking network points. At least 20 buildings were burned down and 84 vehicles were smashed. Eighteen innocents were burned or stabbed to death and 380 civilians were injured.

The Dalai clique based in India depicted these flagrant criminal acts as " peaceful demonstrations " and made up a non-existent " death list " of nearly 100 " protesters ". Western media broadcast these claims to the world.

The Dalai clique's secessionist activities began after the Dalai Lama fled China in 1959. Before he fled, he was a member of the Chinese central government. In February 1951, not long after the People's Republic of China was founded, the Dalai Lama appointed Ngapoi Ngawang Jigme as his chief negotiator with the central government.

On May 23, 1951, the Agreement of the Central People's Government and the Local Government of Tibet on Measures for the Peaceful Liberation of Tibet was signed in Beijing.

The Dalai Lama sent a telegram to Chairman Mao Zedong to express his support for the agreement and his determination to implement it. In September 1954, he was elected vice-chairman of the Standing Committee of the First National People's Congress and, later in 1956, he became the chair of the Preparatory Committee for the Tibet Autonomous Region.

The relationship between Dalai Lama and the central government changed after he fled China. But the fact that Tibet is an inalienable part of China cannot be changed because of his defection. As the now 98-year-old Ngapoi Ngawang Jigme has said : " So-called " Tibet independence " had never existed before the 20th century. It was fabricated by people with ulterior motives."

The feudal dynasties of China had exercised effective sovereignty over Tibet centuries before Europeans landed in the Americas. In the 13th century , the Yuan Dynasty designated Tibet as an administrative region of China. The Ming Dynasty continued to exercise sovereignty over Tibet.

From the 17th century onwards, the Qing Dynasty had comprehensive and sophisticated governance over Tibet. Qing emperors granted honorifics titles to the 5th Dalai Lama and the 5th Bainqen Lama in 1653 and 1713, respectively, officially establishing the " Dalai Lama " and " Bainqen Erdeni " titles. It has since become an established practice that the reincarnations of all future Dalai and Bainqen Lamas are to be approved by the central authority.

From 1727 to 1911, altogether 57 Ambans ( ministers in charge of Tibet affairs in the Qing Dynasty ) were stationed in Tibet to supervise local administration on behalf of the central authority. In the early 20th century, the Republic of China set up an agency for Tibet affairs, with an office in Lhasa, while Tibet sent representatives to the National Congress, as did other provinces. The enthronement of the current 14th Dalai Lama was approved by the then Nationalist government.

Some people say the Dalai Lama wants " high-level autonomy ", not " independence ", for Tibet. But no government in the world would allow such " autonomy " in its territory as the Dalai Lama demands for Tibet.

The so-called " high-level autonomy and real autonomy " he seeks would involve the following: Withdrawal of Chinese troops and military installations from Tibet ; Tibet being able to establish diplomatic ties with other countries and international organisations ; the establishment of a Great Tibetan Zone of 2.4 million sq km, to include areas inhabited by Tibetans in the provinces of Qinghai, Gansu and Sichuan and Yunnan ; non-Tibetans to move out of this zone, etc.

In essence, the Dalai Lama's " high-level autonomy " would deny the central government sovereignty over Tibet and would be tantamount to independence for it. This of course will by no means be accepted by the central government.

The Dalai Lama argues that Tibetans are being reduced to an insignificant minority in their own land, and that there is cultural genocide. The fact is Tibet has made historic achievements in economic and social development. It has achieved an average annual of 12 per cent in the past seven years. Its population has increased from about 1.2 million in 1964 to more than 2.5 million now, with Tibetans constituting 98.4 per cent of the population.

Over the past 20 years, the central government has appropriated more than 700 million yuan ( S$135 million ) for the preservation and maintenance for monasteries, cultural relics and religious sites in Tibet.

There are currently 1,787 religious sites and over 46,000 lamas and nuns in the autonomous region. More than 50 institutes on Tibetan studies have been set up nationwide. Tibetan TV and radio services broadcast in both Tibetan and Mandarin.

Newspapers, magazines and books in Tibetan can be found everywhere. The Tibetan language is taught in all types of schools. As an integral part of Chinese culture, traditional Tibetan culture has been protected by the central government.

Where Tibet is concerned, media reports that ignore China's voice may not be impartial. The Lhasa incident of March 14 was a serious criminal act; the Dalai clique was behind the riot; the police showed great restraint without using lethal weapons.

The Chinese media has reported these facts repeatedly. Regrettably, Western media turned a deaf ear to these reports and have one-sidedly magnified the voices calling for an independent Tibet.

As a result, people may have got the impression that Chinese soldiers cracked down with iron fists on Tibetan monks demonstrating peacefully, and that many Tibetans died from the bullets of the conquerors. However, as the Austrian newspaper der Standard pointed out on March 26, these reports were based in second-hand information from exiled Tibetans living in India and Radio Free Asia, a private radio station funded by the US Congress, have mentioned that neither of these sources is neutral.

More recently, Western media outlets have disclosed that American and German organisations, together with the " Tibetan government-in-exile ", jointly worked out a " Plan of Action " in May 2007 to set off a wave of anti-China demonstrations to coincide with the Beijing Olympics. This , if true, indicates the involvement of international politics in the Tibet issue.

Since China's opening-up three decades ago, the Chinese people have been trying to know more about the world and have tried to be known. The 2008 Olympics is a golden opportunity in this regard. Understanding China --a nation of 1.3 billion people-- is necessary to build a harmonious world. Misunderstanding China or hostility towards China would favour neither China nor the world.

We hope that the world can have a comprehensive view of the past and present of Tibet in particular, and of China in general, so that the gap in perception between Chinese and Westerners  can be bridged.

i hate dull and childish kongfu movie!

BEIJING, China (CNN) -- Thousands of Chinese, angry about anti-Chinese French protests that disrupted the Olympic torch relay in Paris, demonstrated outside a French supermarket in the Chinese city of Wuhan on Saturday.

A witness said the protesters -- mostly Chinese students -- appeared very organized and peaceful, but the organizers remained anonymous.

Chinese anger against France began stirring on Internet message boards in the days after the April 7 Olympic flame protests caused Beijing Olympics organizers to shorten the torch's route through Paris.

Cell phone and Internet text messages called for a boycott of the French supermarket firm Carrefour, China's largest foreign retailer, according to Xinhua, China's official news agency.

Xinhua quoted a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman as saying "the French side needs to ponder and reflect upon" the Chinese feelings.

The management of the Carrefour in Wuhan apparently had notice that protesters would target their store Saturday. Store employees did not wear their uniforms to work, and the store was closed when the demonstration began, a witness said.

Some of the store workers joined the protest, the witness said.

Police directed traffic around the protest and did not interfere, the witness said.

Xinhua reported similar protests and store boycotts have taken place in other cities across China.
