Daily linklets 23rd December

The Merry Christmas edition...

Christmas in Korea.
Christmas cards of the damned.
A good example of the reality of Hong Kong's WTO protests.
Santa's Chinese elves.
Wordpress gives it Chinese users a nice present: it's been closing down Chinese blogs without notice.
Chris explains "Chinese Christmas:" - the winter solstice feast.

And now with the non-Chrissy stuff:

China's environmental problems are political. Additional thoughts on China's environmental regulation and protection after the cadmium spill in the Beijiang River.
China as an insecure but rising superpower.
The Tiananmen cleanup, 2005 style. Contrast with the 1989 version.
Fons questions the news value of a reporter covering the "local hospital on a penis-beat". But it beats (pardon the pun) trying to cover Pudong fires.
Asiapundit rounds up The Economist's articles on China's sex toy industry, Japanese humanised robots and after the Dalai Lama.
Japan's population starts shrinking. There's an obvious solution to this demographic time-bomb...it's called immigration. Yes, it's really as simple as that.
Coxinga: pirate or king?

Thanks for the linkage. An Update: As sort of expected Wordpress China has nothing to do with Wordpress.
