China bashing has become a fashion. Especially with western media. ( Luckily not with European business. Big business (i.e. Volkswagen) is investing heavily in the PRC).

A recent example is from the Corriere della Sera, which reported about the  terrible treatment of women in China. A woman, who brought pictures, which showed how she was beaten by her husband, could not get immediate divorce, what a terrible country!

I spent this year from mid September to mid December in China. Beside my October stage with CAAS I travelled for Wine Fairs and Wine Presentations to promote the wine fro my partner wineries,  which are already 5: "Salviano" from the Lago di Corbara "Scacciadiavoli" from Montefalco,  "Tili'  from Assisi, "Duca della Corgna" from Lago di Trasimeno and "Cantine Terribile"from Puglia.
