- The Best Investment In China: Art
By: Red Hill Capital | - Everyone has heard about Chinese products, and everyone knows about the Chinese art of the past.

On the art side, Chinese art has evolved over the last century, and, although the traditional art is still being produced, oil painting, a la the West, has become a major part of Chinese ar ...

- China's Macau Now Vegas East
By: Derek Dashwood | - In the past half century the seaport of Macau has been transformed from a sleepy fishing and trading village with a reputation of unholy lawlessness, into the worlds largest casino city. Greater now than Las Vegas, Macau draws in more gamblers and more revenue.

- Hand Gestures In China: What Not To Do
By: Derek Dashwood | - Imagine that you are a visitor to China and you wish to talk to a friend who is not right near you. Imagine the volume of sounds that are all around you: others calling to each other, cell phones ringing, the chatter of friends and you want to speak to your friend across the road. What do you do? You use hand gestures to agree on who should go over to the other side of the streets. This can expand to signs of wanting to eat food and a long list of items. So in such a ancient society and the de ...

- Revolutionary China 1950; Executive China 2008,
By: Derek Dashwood | - Chinese antiques shop talk can carry on about many subjects, but the amazing changes that many people can remember is the change in the Stalinist China. The glorious leader was Chairman Mao whose followers where hundreds of millions of Chinese people. Today they are pouring into towns for the factory jobs that keep being built.

By: Derek Dashwood | - Chinese antiques shop thinking is not at the top of any to-do list in downtown Shenzhen these days. Shenzhen, beautifully located by the sea near Hong Kong, was the first Special Economic Zone, and has created a magnificent new mega city that produces enormous volumes of luxury products.

- China To Build Tallest Tower As Fiscal Stimulus
By: Derek Dashwood | - New tower building destined to have small shop people nearby as calm zones. So Chinese antiques shop keepers would gape in awe from their small sales stall in small enclaves left in areas of Shanghai. They have found this allows the resident or tourist to have a sense of the flavor of what Shanghai was once like. These areas are very popular and have food stalls, popular at lunch and supper, and are very busy all day long. So the irony is that while construction projects ar slowing or stopping a ...

- China's Twentieth Century - What A Hundred Years
By: Derek Dashwood | - Chinese antigues shop thinking has us whittling by the stove but taking turns reading from some history book. We see that the Boxer Rebellion broke out in 1900, and that it was due to frustration of Chinese over decades of being treated as the servant in their own nation. In the past half century China had been forced, against western firepower, to sign a series of treaties that demeaned China, allowed rights to the western powers, lands to Russia and Japan. It seemed a perilous time to be Chine ...

- Feng Shui, Opposing Views In Public
By: Derek Dashwood | - Feng Shui, which you pronounce fung shway, grew out of the teachings of the legendary philosopher Lao Szu, also known as Laozi. It was actually the words of Lao Tsu that this physical mastery of the body became as vital as that of the mind. Feng shui means wind and water. Lao Szu concentrated on harmony with that which is around us and that extends to all elements of existence: we are a small but integral part. He taught that if we achieve this harmony and balance in our lives we live healthier ...

- China's Chairman Mao: Savior Or Backward Leaper
By: Derek Dashwood | - As if a book from a Chinese antiques shop, the myth of Chairman Mao has classic Communist ideology, in that the dear leader is usually glorified as one with super human powers. Mao Zedong did it from the Long March and through his life, and even in death his body is almost given sacred honors. But several recent academic studies of the glorious leader show defects in his personality and unnecessary that are being written in the West. It is true that in the 1930s era Mao and others led tens of t ...

- China Today: Hu Jintao. Supreme Leader
By: Derek Dashwood | - A wise Chinese antiques shop dealer could tell you much about Chinese Mings and things, and so much about each regime or emperor through his, or figures of Confucious. But if you were to talk about modern politics you might encounter some understandable hesitation to talk so freely. So we will. Hu Jintao was a top honor student who excelled at every task he was given. And for the world that is a very good thing since the need for a clear bright mind in control is so vital these days as we all cl ...

- China: Border Ethnic Minority Issues
By: Derek Dashwood | - To follow this story, you are requested to assume you are an Anglo Saxon male. You are in a shop that sells things ladies buy and you would rather wait outside. But she who must be obeyed and several garments are having a time out. She- your beloved- is Oriental(Chinese): your sales clerks are both female. One sales lady is blond and she stands back a bit. The black sales clerk is much more helpful, and after giving my Chinese born wife so much cherrful assistance, I thank her, she smiles.

- China: The Merit Of Saving Face
By: Derek Dashwood | - The concept of saving face in fears of some public humility is something most people understand. But if you were a Chinese antiques shop keeper and you had an angry customer who was wrongly accusing you of selling an interior product. Until you prove her wrong, she is causing you loss of face, especially if there were many others nearby. But once you prove your case that the product you sold is good honest value. At that point you have face, and your accuser has not.

- China And Its History Of Dynasties
By: Derek Dashwood | - If you are browsing in a Chinese antiques shop and the owner shows you an object for any dynasty, you would probably need help to be assured which century that was. And so it has been in China for the thrity thousand years that human beings have populated this portion of earth. We know that humanity came out of Africa and worked its ways by the ocean shore at first and then through mountain passes to find and lay claim to an area for themselves.
It is a strange anomaly that human ...

- Buddhism, Tibet, The Dalai Lama And China Today
By: Derek Dashwood | - Chinese Antiques Shop collecting predates the life and times of Buddha, who lived BC 566-486. Buddhism came to China from the west, up and around the Himalaya mountains and then across the Tibetan Plateau and then the Mongol deserts. The mighiest of all the deserts in Asia was the Gobi- so much that today the Gobi Desert is encroaching the western edges of the capital city, Beijing. As to Buddha, the now fabled reputation of the the one they called the Buddha- the Enlilghtened One- was born Sidd ...

- China And Buddhism - The Way We Were
By: Derek Dashwood | - While Indian Prince Siddhartha Gautama, the Buddha, died in BC 486 his teachings did not reach into China until AD 286. As usual this journey was a long and difficult route. Their route was to go to the west and up over the lower shoulder of the vast Himalayan Mountains. This would be them down on the ridge of the high and barren Tibetan Platea. Moving eastward they would have made their way down into the Gobi Desert. As this was now the Silk Road there were occasional places for respite,food an ...

- Taoism In China - Its Historic Influence
By: Derek Dashwood | - There are four major religions in China, as any wise Chinese Antiques shop keeper could tell you. The original worship was for deceased ancestors, and this is still to be seen in the present time. Next religion came out of the writing and words at Lao Tsu, who lived in the fifth century BCE and who lived at the same time as Confucious and Buddha. While Confucious spoke to the need for order and place in society. Buddha worked his meditations into a framework for entry to heaven, or nirvana.

- China: The Way Of The Tao In Today's China
By: Derek Dashwood | - The philosopher Lao tsu spent his life time seeking a long life through herbal Chinese remedies, stories in Chinese antiques shop keepers stories. His work contains only five thousand characters, making disagreement on some nuanced point on some thing he said. This was some thing he could see what might happen and so it has come to be. Neither Lao tse nor Confucious wanted immortality in the hearts and minds of their followers. They would be satisfied to one day die and have others read their wo ...

- China's Animals: Dragon To Panda
By: Derek Dashwood | - Animals have been considered lucky in Chinese antiques shop mentalities, folk lore for thousands of years. We should be aware the Chinese calendar breaks each of our personalities down into twelve types of animal, each who are to be seen in their more positive and powerful ways. First of all animals in Chinese life is the dragon. So dragons came to represent the ruler, men, the emperor himself. The dragon can always be seen in any Chinatown parade, as men under or inside the tubing that makes up ...

- Chinese Buildings, Past, Present And Future
By: Derek Dashwood | - When we think of Chinese antique shops our mind tends to think of delicate and precious items. If you are in a traditional Chinese building then it likely has, or had a red tiled roof with curves tending upward at each of the four corners of the structure. Today in modern Chinese architecture there are many high towers, and some are mocked that such a classic old China roof has been placed on the peak of a tower. This is disparagingly mocked at Big Hat or Tall Hat. Yet modern Chinese feel pride ...

- Collecting Asian Art: Jade
By: Isadore Chait | - Jade is one of the most-loved collectibles. Its origins are ancient, its properties both medicinal and decorative. Though revered around the world, jade is most commonly associated with China, where it has been known for 8,000 years. The early Chinese called it yu and saw it as a living stone, radiating with an inner glow.
Often ground, mixed with wine and fed to the emperors, jade was believed to increase imperial longevity. Symbolically, a court gentleman, on reaching 80, ...

- Chinese Antiques, Marco Polo And The Silk Road
By: Derek Dashwood | - Marco Polo and his father and uncle discovered a new, more northern Silk Road to Chinese antiques when they alighted from their sailing vessel on the north east coast of the Black Sea. They walked north east and found an established east-west trading Silk Road around the north end of the Aral Sea, and from here they passed a series of mountain ranges and were generally able to fairly easily bypass most mountain routes and traverse this more northern Silk Road to Cathay, or China to us now. Their ...

- Marco Polo And The Perfect Chinese Kowtow
By: Derek Dashwood | - Marco Polo had been warned by his father and his uncle on the etiquette of court in ancient Cathay, China to our modern mind. How well you expressed your kowtow, that is your bow to the emperor, said much about your wise use of subtle means to express deeper desires. Marco had many opportunities to practice his bows, and made good use of each new meeting with friend of foe, all would be rreceived by Marco with a generous bow, a very respectful deep bow, some times too deep for one of low station ...

- Chinese Antiques, China Now: More Glorious, More Rich
By: Derek Dashwood | - To have a plan on where you are going does make it more likely your plans become realized. The state plans beloved by Communist Chinese hearts can look at huge concepts and see future projections made realities year after year. Five year plans come and go, and when the state plans take in the vastly greater industrial power of capitalism from the west, can the east grow ever richer. To understand China is to feel the sense of urgent destiny in each grand gesture and in the style and ways of Chin ...

- Chinese Antiques Compared To Achievements Of China Today
By: Derek Dashwood | - To see the China of Olympic visions made true is to be very impressed that such a society exists and can be brought forward in this way. State control over a people does make way to swift action to realizee a dream, and we saw that in Beijing as never before. The people were vast in their display of uniformity. Marco Polo must have seen historic versions of these grand displays, in contrast to what was known in Europe in 1200 AD China. We saw no new inventions, as did Marco and his father and un ...

He spoke that at the height of his glory as he was winning at every battle he took on. But, what did Napoleon know?
By 1844 the British had wrested control of Hong Kong in south China in a 99 year lease of a deep protected harbor. Here they began to secure their west Pacific naval base, while eight thousand miles to ...
