It is interesting, when accidents happen here in US, we call it accidents, when accidents happen in China, it is not just an accident, it represent some kind of political statements.

Speaking of bridges, here in the US there are a dire need to upgrade, rebuild, and building of new bridges all across America. I don't know why congress couldn't just provide more money into these important infrastructures. Can you imagine how many jobs that would provide, not to mention the steel industry in the US?

I don't think anyone can circumvent Chinese steel products. If the demand are so great than there's plenty of steel mills in the US to help control that demand. In other words the work would be so great that even Chinese and US steel mills would not be able to keep up their productions not just for domestic use, but for the entire world as well. Remember even in the Middle Eastern countries like Saudi Arabia, U.A.E. and Qatar are also developing fast, so sub Saharan African countries.

A riot involving 2,000 workers broke out at an Apple factory in China, leaving 40 people injured.

More than 5,000 police were reportedly sent to bring the riot at the Foxconn factory in the northern city of Taiyuan in the Shanxi province of China until control after trouble erupted in workers' sleeping quarters yesterday.

Comments on Chinese internet bulletin boards said the trouble may have been sparked by a security guard hitting an employee and not related to the recent anti-Japan protests.

In a statement, the Taiwanese-owned company said: 'A personal dispute between several employees escalated into an incident involving some 2,000 workers at approximately 11pm last night in a privately-managed dormitory.'

This is the second time in the last six months the site has seen workers unrest at the site. In March front-line workers went on strike after they failed to receive the promised pay rise.

Apple hired an auditor who found Foxconn employees regularly were required to work more than 60 hours a week. The company raised minimum pay and promised to limit hours.

There was a riot at Foxconn's Chengdu plant in June, which according to reports was due to an argument between some workers and a local restaurant owner.

Last night's rioting in the Taiyuan factory comes 11 days after an undercover journalist for the Shanghai Evening Post strongly criticised working conditions at the plant where 57million iPhones are produced every year.

The journalist, who is keeping his identity secret, kept a diary of his ten day and website micgadget translated it.....

A Chinese court sentences ex police chief, at the centre of China's biggest political scandal in decades, to 15 years in jail. Wang Lijung was found guilty on four charges, including seeking to cover up the murder of British businessman, Neil Heywood, by fallen politician Bo Xilai's wife. State television released video of the court hearing. Wang spoke to apologise. (SOUNDBITE) (Mandarin) EX-POLICE CHIEF OF CHONGQING MUNICIPALITY WANG LIJUN SAYING: "I express my regrets to the court about the crimes I committed. I will use the rest of my life to repent and make it up to the system and to the sorrow and regrets I caused for people who care about me." Chinese residents had mixed views on the sentence. (SOUNDBITE)(Mandarin) I.T. WORKER LEO ZHANG SAYING: "I think it should have been less than 15 years. The sentence was too severe. I feel it should have been lighter. As I just said, in my opinion his contribution should have counted for more" (SOUNDBITE)(Mandarin) BEIJING RESIDENT MR. DING SAYING: "They give these corrupt officials too light sentences. They should sentence them harshly. They embezzle so much, what else should we do but execute them?" The verdict moves the party closer to a formal decision on dealing with Bo. His downfall has shaken a leadership handover due at a party congress as early as next month.
