So the Chinese who don't live in the East side of China and aren't "economically active" (dead? comatose? beggars?) arent Chinese and shoud not be counted as part of > the population?

Put it this way. Some lesser-than-intelligent Aliens from outer space arrived on Earth and measured the GDP per capita of everybody on the planet - they believed this was the best measure of the economic activity of the average human being. Would that not that overlook the economic strength of the Japanese or even the US? In the case of China, you're using one single indicator for over 1 billion individuals - you're forgiven if you cannot understand what a billion really is, you're only normal. China has a population greater than all European countries put together - shall I ask if that one GDP/cap of Europe is adequate for measuring the economic activity of say Germany? Anyone with a decent imagination if not a decent mathematical education will tell you the "average" of "mean" for a billion samples a very lousy measure for practical purposes!

In China er capita is $3,600, but that is misleading. The figure is much much higher if you take into account only the economically active Chinese who are mainly in the East side of China.

Hnouring the ones who fought for your country...okay seems reasonable. But to honour those who commited mass rapes and massacres on ordinary YOUs and MEs is not so reasonable...

Obama shouldn't visit those places or it would symbolize that US had made a mistake to stop the war.

If straight people went around dressing like that the sentence would have been...making Japanese society more understanding toward the country’s straight communities.

All rubbish comments. Karate is actually a type of kungfu (if you know what the real meaning is, kung fu is a collective term) or more accurately wushu. I bet 99.9% of people didn't know that karate was original called "Chinese hands".

Funnily I actually like it. I could imagine the groom waering the male version of same costume. Future wedding costumes should be whatever design the couple prefer! That'd more muhc more interesting!

Numbers don't matter, what matters is the nature of the crime and those who dare read about them will have nightmares - if they're can realistically imagine putting themselves into the shoes of the victims.

Very thoughtful of the culprit. "I'm going to be in trouble anyway so might as well make the most of my time in hiding".
