none.\n\nThey have so many seats but they can't be able to control them. \n\nThey can't survive without the communists.

In a way I think it is apathy but I believe the reason for the apathy is that they don't believe they can make a damn bit of difference.\n\nMost people don't think that there is such a thing as a truthful and honest local politician and that just by applying they would be fighting against people who revel in bribery and corruption on a small but very slimy scale.  So why bother?!\n\nAlso it's expensive, time consuming and, even though not all local government is slime encrusted, it seems to be a bunch of small minded people round a table arguing for hours over tea and biscuits.  Who wants to do that when you could be down the pub with your mates?\n\nBe great if more people got involved with it but I don't think they will.

I lived in the philippines for 7 years, and taught graduate school.  The Philippine teaching stratagy is to pursue the US model, which makes it just lip service.  In reality, Philippine politics is all about family  and tribal allegiance, with the consequence that the central government is not only weak, but utterly corrupt (by western standards)with nepotism and favoritism. However, in the Philippine culture, such is the expected norm.

Non-Political. No politics truly benefit the people.

Rule of law from the weakest person to the strongest should be a goal of every country, unfortunately, the Chinese communist party is threatened by the "spiritual" movement Falung Gong, so it's possible these acts are condoned tacitly to "scare "citizens back into the communist fold. Any acts like these, if true, would be signs of desperation. The Chinese government will be on it's best behavior until the Olympics in '08, then I believe there may be great confrontation in China. Their economy is more and more capitalist, the people want and are getting, to a certain degree, a more free and materialistic lifestyle, yet the Communist party still holds sole political power. At some point one will have to give way to the other.
