Yeuyue, a 2yr old girl in China was run over by a white van driver who left the scene of the accident without stopping. A dozen or more passersby ignored the young girl – none going to her assistance. She was then run over by a second vehicle. She is in critical condition in hospital and not expected to survive
The incident was caught on CCTV (CLICK READ MORE TAB TO VIEW VID)
Such callous indifference to the suffering of a young girl is hard to understand !!!
Police in China pulled over a school bus licensed to carry 8 passengers and found 66 children and their teachers crammed inside (http://tinyurl.com/4xpvw4r)
[Psst, has anyone contacted the Guinness Book of Records ?]
A total of 12 police vans were required to take the children home
A chinese businessman fined after being caught on a police camera driving at 60mph in a 50mph area while feeling the breast of his female passenger is threatening to sue the local traffic police.

He claims that they have digitally altered the film and that he was alone in the car that day.
One woman who certainly was NOT in the car with Deng Jialin that day was . . .

Military vehicles are exempt from paying tolls on China’s roads.
From May 2008 to January 2009, Shi Jianfeng ran a business transporting gravel in two trucks.
Who’s ahead of me here?
Yup, you guessed it – Shi put fake military number plates on his trucks and had his drivers wear fake uniforms to avoid paying any tolls.
It is estimated he avoided paying tolls 2,300 times before being rumbled.
A judge has now sentenced him to life in prison (and a 1 million yuan fine)
Following public protestations about the severity of the sentence,, however, a retrial has been ordered

Morning rush hour traffic in Guangzhou city centre was brought to a standstill by a man practicing yoga.
The unnamed man laid his mat down in the middle of one of the busiest roads, forcing traffic to grind to a halt as it slowly edged round him.
“Luckily, he only practised for an hour, otherwise the whole city’s transportation system would have ground to a halt.” said a police spokesperson.
Hhmm, try that over here and he wouldn’t have lasted 5 minutes before local plod arrested him or some irate commuter gave him a toe up his arse !!!
Li Yousheng was a familiar figure on the streets of Changsha in Hunan, China.
“Legless” Li, who appeared to be paralysed from the waist down, would propel himself from place to place lying face down on a skateboard. A framework he had constructed around the skateboard supported a stereo system above him through which he played music intended to make people sad and depressed (Barry Manilow, Cliff Richard ??? )
From the amount of cash visible in his begging bowl in the pic, he was making a fair living despite his disability.
And he won’t have to worry about having a roof over his head now either – the Chinese government is offering him accommodation.
Following a tipoff from an investigative journalist, “Legless” Li has been arrested and charged with fraud after police caught the crafty begger getting to his feet in the late afternoon to eat his lunch in a secluded corner.
A drug smuggler has been executed in China.
There’s nothing unusual about that; the Chinese do it a lot.
The trouble this time, is because the chap was British (or at least – lived in London). There is now a major row going on, that smacks of the good old days of gunboat diplomacy, and old fashioned ‘We’re British-dammit!’ head up arse attitudes towards Johnny Foreigner. It never ceases to amaze me that as soon a British citizen (or even resident) is accused of any crime abroad, they are immediately assumed by the British government and press to be any combination of the following:-
1. Innocent
2. Mentally ill
3. Stitched up by an unknown manipulative villain
4. A really nice chap
5. A pillar of their community
6. A drug smuggling twat looking to line their own pocket at the expense of wreaking untold misery and havoc on the lives of vulnerable people and the society in which they live and thieve to feed their habit. [Sorry about that - I don't know how that one got in there! - Ed]
7. The victim of a corrupt and inferior legal system
8. Totally reliable with respect to their protestations of innocence
9. Have an honest and supportive family whose have all the attributes of no.8 above.
Now, I know that I’m generalising, and that the Chinese legal system leaves one hell of a lot to be desired in terms of fairness, openness and unbiased legal representation for all concerned, but….
What do you lot think? Not just about the case of Akmal Shaikh, but about your country’s nationals being convicted of crimes abroad – is it just us holier-than-thou British who have this attitude?
There is nothing wrong with this little girl – except she’s not a boy.
An uncle in the city of Zhangsu in Jiangxi Province put an ad in the chinese equivalent of eBay putting his niece up for auction. Bidding started at just ¥1, with shipping included..
According to the ad the little girl has her mother’s ‘big eyes’ and is ‘very cute’
The uncle said he placed the ad because the family were very poor and they had wanted a son.
When the authorities were alerted to the auction, however, the ad was pulled before a sale had been completed.
A rather large inflatable penis greets visitors to Hangzhou, in China’s Zhejiang Province, as part of a display advertising ‘Masculine Health Day’.
Hhmm, don’t want to seem ‘picky’ but ‘Masculine Health Day’ ? . . . Isn’t there something missing?
Where’s it’s balls ???
Police in the Southern China Yangjiang, Guangdong province reckon the chances of catching motorists who break the speed limit is almost zero.
The problem is that more than 1/2 the drivers, it is estimated, either cover their number plates or use false ones.
Modern technology makes the latter option particularly easy to do. For a little over $100 dollars drivers can buy a remote control device that changes the number plate displayed on their car in less than 3 seconds
Sneaky !!!
