Re: MGX
Yes, I agree, that was my point, when you use certain words it suggests people are something substandard (it creates a stereotype- like saying all Chinese drivers are bad drivers (eg saying 'bloody Asians' when they cut across you at the lights or that European born Australian's aren't as good as maths as Chinese born Australians- generalisations often show a lack of knowledge or understanding), sometimes we get into bad habits with our descriptions. A country like China couldn't be the centre of global economic interest without having the brains to make it so, there is also the rich cultural tradition and history which most individual countries cannot rival. They are not perfect but that doesn't mean they are the opposite either.
Some people say the Chinese just work harder (that is a virtue in itself- being assiduous) but they also have to have brains to go the distance, as does any human being. It doesn't help to stereotype something when we can't understand its complexity.
Okay, will end this little tangent, back to the stock. Johnno, this post is no criticism of you.
chicken said:Rich Kid....the Chinese are way ahead of the eight ball believe it...had a lot to do with them in NZ....they are more clever in business and work, than any European I have known, they work>>>>12 hours a day,and their only downfall is gambling....they love it more than anyone I have known...As with the stockmarket they just love it...they are loyal to their workplace and if they make a friend with you its for life...got a lot of time for them as we Europeans became LAZY...most of us rather go fishing or looking at sport...a lot of us have forgotten how to work ..whereby the Chinese have just discovered the sweet success of having $$$$ whereby most young people here expect everything on a plate....thats the difference between the Chinese....when the farmers need labour here they cant get them...they should bring them here as there is plenty of work...but no one wants it...as far as GMX they are good for the company...yes the share will go higher as work and money are 2 items the chinese value and they will make it happen..I will buy more shares at present prices
