Quite true. I am not a historian, but apparently the Cambodian fiasco was financed and conducted with Chinese management and military resources. It appeared to be an experiment. Poeple were driven from their homes and all money was destroyed. Since it failed so badly, one of two things is possible. One, the Chinese have abandoned the ideology, or two, they have analyzed what went wrong so they can try again somewhere else. Let's all hope it is number one. Before CS goes ballistic, let me also say that the US as well as almost every other nation has colonized foreign countires too, sometimes violently (eg. Iraq). Let's all hope they too analyze what went wrong and don't try again somewhere else (Iran). > I'm happy that CS trusts the Chinese > government and it's > intentions. I don't.

In interesting possibility. If it did turn out that way, it would only be because the US followed economic policies which allowed it to happen. This is looking more and more likely.
