Chinese activist in limbo at Tokyo airport

Tokyo, Japan (CNN) -- If you've passed through Tokyo on an international connection this past month, chances are you've seen a Chinese man wearing a homemade T-shirt with scribbling all over it. His name is Feng Zhenghu, a Chinese citizen who has moved into Narita Airport's international arrival concourse.

"Moved in" in the non-traditional sense, and reminiscent of Tom Hanks in the movie "The Terminal," a story of an Eastern European man denied entry into the U.S., so he decides to live at JFK Airport.

Isn't it ironic? The country that China has hated for so long because of WW2 atrocities is now offering asylum to a Chinese human rights activist. :| :roll: :P
 
to be fair japan has gone a long way since its world war 2 days. China DOES have quite a bit of issues with trying to keep so much control over the people.(Sexual freedom is one of those things)
 
LOL, funny you should say that. Actually, it's western priests that introduced all that sex is a sin thing in Asia. Chinese people were never that prudish in historical documents.

I'm probably completely off the mark here, but the vibe i got from Pablos is referring more the 1 Child rule rather than who to sleep with.
 
Huh? How is that related to sexual freedom? :?

And 3 more things, the 1 child rule is a recent thing introduced by CCP, 2. if you ever lived in China, you would agree with it, 3. It's not actually illegal to have another child, just costly.

That's the first thing i thought when i read it, that's all.
