This week, The Guardian is running a series of articles about China. I’m sure this has already been mentioned by other bloggers who are quicker off the mark than I am, but never mind. I have been a reader of this newspaper for a long time, and although I don’t always agree with their viewpoint, I usually find it a good read (and a useful counterpoint to The Economist). Anyway, you can find all the reports here.
The articles I have read from series (so far at least) seem to be pretty good, and better than a lot of the rubbish that is written about China (some of it in this very same newspaper in the past).
Some of the articles that I have found interesting: Food city (Brit finds some Chinese delicacies a bit hard to stomach), Going for gold (medal factories) A tale of two countries (life as a migrant worker) and Home alone (the problems of the only child).
Worth a read, I think.
