That mysterious man Ron Goodden is at it again, getting his letter (Let Israel be Iraq’s guide) published in the SCMP. Yet again there is no apparent connection with Hong Kong, and Mr Goodden lives in Atlanta, Georgia – which wasn’t anywhere near Hong Kong last time I checked.
It’s not as if the SCMP had a prestigious letter column where world issues are debated – it’s either about Hong Kong issues or by Hong Kong people, so a letter like this is distinctly out of place. I suppose what it comes to is that they’ll publish any old rubbish to fill up the space.
Yes, I know, but before I ever thought of doing a blog, I considered a website devoted entirely the weird and wonderful letters published in the SCMP. So it could have been much worse.
