...does this mean it's inevitable that inflation will join the long list of Chinese global exports? Economists disagree. Yiping Huang, chief Asia Pacific economist for Citibank, notes in a recent research report that, while wages are rising fast in China, labor productivity is increasing even faster, which tends to limit manufacturers' need to raise prices. Standard Chartered economist Gerard Lyons says that China's move into more valuable manufactured goods such as automobiles will in years to come have the same deflationary effects on world markets as the country's push into low-end manufacturing...
...developed world does not always do a good job of keeping itself well, health-care leaders there do understand that to fix the diseases you've got, you first have to talk about them. That is often not remotely the case elsewhere. In early September, Dr. Chiun-Sheng Huang, an oncologist at Taipei's National Taiwan University Hospital, examined a woman in her late 60s who had come to him for the first time.

Huang, a former Harvard Business School faculty member who has also worked...
Adams and Ren’s study, though it counters myth with hard numbers and quantifications, can yet do little to prevent subtle manifestations of prejudice. For example, at the height of the John Huang “Chinagate” scandal, the March 24, 1997 cover of the National Review portrayed the Clintons in Chinese clothes and hats, holding a pot of tea and displaying buck teeth. Many Asian American groups also complained of widespread discrimination among the community after media coverage of John Huang’s illegal dealings—for example, that the Democratic National Committee...
