You may know that China stopped a team of british MPs visiting Hong Kong as they kinda respect their own independence and dont want big noses coming in to stir up trouble. The brits got so upset that there was an emergency debate in the commons last week LOL. Heres the Chinese Amb to britains reply about the whole thing. VERY classical Chinese diplomatic language, basically telling the brits VERY politely to f*** right off! This is a classic few lines from this article: ...The ban on entry was not intended to insult the committee. China was only safeguarding its national sovereignty and security. It was not intended to be a confrontational move. China was only holding to its principles and bottom line. It will certainly not close Hong Kong to foreigners. China was only acting to safeguard the stability and prosperity of Hong Kong. In China, we have an old saying: guests do as their host thinks fit. Members of the committee are only guests if they visit Hong Kong: they have no supervisory power. Naturally, it is always the host who decides whom to invite and when – a social etiquette almost anywhere. If uninvited or unwelcome guests insist on coming over, they would certainly be regarded as being arrogant. And to blame the host for refusing to extend his welcome would only be categorised as hysterical. China has never interfered in the UK’s domestic issues. It is not too much for China to expect the same in return? I hope the latest episode will prompt people to calm down, and put themselves in other people’s shoes...
