Thank you for the invitation. Where are you physically located?
I've been in Kwai-Lin and Huang Shan. But that was before digital cameras. I want to go back with my modern gears and retake more pictures of these two wonderful natural beauties of our country. One of these days, I'm going just walk away from this rat race and just go, when I can still move around on my own.
Regarding Dr. Sun, I don't know how history will judge him. It is really too soon to render judgment to a recent figure. I am not too knowledgeable about the events that happened during that era. But I can imagine that he had to joggle a lot between the major powers. On one hand, he needed their support and money to overthrow the dynasty. At the meantime, those powers all had their own ulterior and selfish ambition towards China. Dr. Sun had to balance what he wanted to accomplish while dancing with the wolfs.
Seeing Japan's barbaric actions in Southeast Asia during that period of time, I am pretty sure that they would invade us with or without Dr. Sun.
Again, history will render its judgment when it all settles.
