My comment: I am not a Chengdu resident and I was not born in Chengdu. However, since I lived there in summer 2008 that city and its people made me love it. Few times, if ever, I felt so intense what good human beings are. So much compassion facing desperation, so much selflessness facing scarcity of food, water, roof, etc. so many friendly hands ready for people in need of some help. I had to leave but only under parole to myself that I will go back one day to see how those wonderful people restored one of the most astonishing cities in this planet.
Two good news these days comforted me. Everyone who lost home in the earthquake and still live in temporary houses will have their permanent home by New Year Eve in February 14. And second good news is that, scheduled to be completed in 2014, a high-speed railway linking Xi'an with Chengdu has won approval. Therefore in 2014 or 2015 I will visit Chegdu. This time just to admire you and your people. After earthquake http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAsa_1Ygk2s Before Earthquake http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9oi-ORbHu0 I love this city.
