Submitting to the Chinese dollars
Mar. 24th, 2009 10:06 amThis comes as a nice example to the previous post. Did you hear what the explanation of the SA guvmint was for snubbing the Dalai Lama's visit? They "did not want to distract the attention from the preparations to the World Cup in 2010". WTF!? How stupid is that? Stupid beyond reason. They must think people are idiots with attention deficit, and they cannot handle more than one event per year?
What, is the Dalai Lama some kind of saboteur of major sporting events around the world?
However this could have a serious backlash because some voices are already considering to start advocating a boycott of the World Cup.

Selling their souls to the Chinese financial cronyism may become even a bigger reason for boycott than the rampant crime across SA, which has been stated by many as reason No.1 to not attend the World Cup. With their own stones on their heads. It's a pity we'll all have to suffer from this.
