In this publication, we offer two articles: 1) "Interview Addresses U.S. Meeting Challenges in Its World Role and Relations with China" from ACP Center Lane Internet Radio Show on 10/02/2008: guest Dr. Sheng-Wei Wang and  interviewer Andrew Evans. The American Centrist party (ACP) is a third-party in the United States that is established in 40 states; and 2) "New Rules Needed for Hong Kong's 'Big Market, Small Government' Concept (Letter to the Editor The Standard, Hong Kong)" by Dr. Kam-tim  Siu.

With the difficult financial situation rolling ahead all over the world, we hope that some reading will deepen our thoughts and ease our minds. We wish to receive your comments on these topics.

In the Photo Section, many thanks go to Mirian Zhang for her collection of beautiful cranes in China. They are truly elegant birds!

We wish you Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
