World's most powerful men meet in Beijing
Zambia News.Net Monday 16th November, 2009
A China-US summit in Beijing has produced vows of cooperation from the leaders of the two countries.
US President Barack Obama spent several hours Tuesday in closed-door talks with his Chinese counterpart, Hu Jintao.
Earlier, the two met after a welcoming ceremony at the Great Hall of the People, where both leaders met other dignitaries.
A set of meetings took place throughout the day, although no breakthroughs were announced.
President Obama pushed for uncensored Internet use and greater political freedoms in China.
Climate change, trade, North Korea and Iran were also discussed at the closed door meeting.
On Monday, the issue of human rights was raised in President Obama's meeting with students in Shanghai about free information and political expression.
During the event, Mr. Obama answered questions submitted by the audience and by Chinese Internet-users.
The Chinese government carefully controlled the media coverage of the student event, which was only seen on local television.
Mr Obama told the students he considered climate change one of the most critical challenges for the US and China to tackle. Email this story to a friend

The PRoC have the USA by the major genitals. The USA have around US$400 billions in trade deficit against the PRoC. It is not known really how much US dollars that the PRC are holding. But it is enough for Mr Obama to make nice with Mr Jintao.No comment about those Nepalese peasants,okey? Just eat your wonton and noodles.
Once the PRC, Japan, Taiwan, Saudi Arabia, and other OPEC members unload their US dollars it will flood the world financial market and it will be worthless.
Mr Obama thought he could ride the wild bronc that is the US of A, but it will be the bronc that will tell him where, when, and how to lean if he wants to complete his ride.

About the meeting of the two powerfull Presidents.
Dear editor,
I extend thanks that you have released this good news-about the two powerfull presidents, China & USA are meeting in Beijing. I hope, henceforth, there will be no tug of war between USA & China.
In the context of Nepal, we, the Nepalese people are suffering from the traitors who are in regime. The Congress leader Girija, UML leader Madhab nepal ( pesent PM) Maoist leaders Prachanda & Baburam Bhattarai should be punished. Because, they are going to destroy the Democracy, identity and sovereignty.
Dear editor, Please, convey my requesting message to the two loveable Presidents,to reinstate the Nepalese monarchy.we must not take up anything that would become too burdensome to carry on. Nepal does not have any basis or foundation that could support republic. Carrying the slogan of a republic is not the solution of our country. Nepal needs a permanent institution that can shoulder the responsibility for its independence, national unity and sovereignty. The King had no role in bringing this sorry state of this country. The existing, uncertain and precarious situation can only be averted if a balance can be maintained among nationality, monarchy and parliamentary democracy. Nepal’s independence, sovereignty and democracy can never be safeguarded by abolishing monarchy.
Thank you.
Dirgha Raj Prasai
Kathmandu, Nepal

The United States is NOT an all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet restaurant.
(R) 2012 DAN QUAYLE Presidential Economics / trades reform: American people don’t need an Socialist Chairman “Oba-Mao” to lead the United States. America is NOT an all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet restaurant. China tells “Oba-Mao” to co-operate China’s free-trade to remove US protectionism, but not a fair-trade offered from China. The 2013 DAN QUAYLE’s White House will negotiate with China’s annual trade-surplus to cause US annual trade-deficit; Very seriously, China will agree to write-off the amount of their Chinese owned US government bonds to balance the “equal” overlapped parts of trade-surplus and trade-deficit. Sure, once the free-trade is expanding and growing, both overlaps' intersection are increasing bigger, the US annual trade-deficit have to receive the cash-rebate from China’s annual trade-surplus, to use the rebated cash to repair our American Economic Governance. Forget the previous Harvard’s MBA Henry Paulson’s dead-wrong RMB$ theory, and welcome to accept the 2009 Nobel’s Indiana University’s Dr. Elinor Ostrom’s theory. The Nobel’s Dr. Elinor Ostrom will present at the 2013 DAN QUAYLE presidency’s negotiation meeting with China. Dr. Ostrom who specializes An@lysis of Economic Governance will be 2013 DAN QUAYLE’s cabinet of appointed Economic Advisor in White House.
