I am a National Security specialists who currently works in Washington D.C. (insert your own joke here). For myself individual and national sovereignty is sacrosanct, populist, neo-marxist or fascist trends and ideologies despite espousing democratic rhetoric are anything but democratic and represent a threat that must be dealt with. – In addition, democracy must be modeled on the respect for individual liberty, personal sovereignty, with its accompanying political-rights, which when combined with free-market economic principles, represents a good for society. If you have stumbled across this blog and think that you are going to convert me to either respecting or accepting other systems as just different do not waste yours, or more importantly my time.

Sino-Pak friendship immune to global changes: China

BEIJING: Chinese President Hu Jintao said on Friday that nothing would affect the decades old Sino-Pak friendship despite changes in global and regional scenarios.

He said this to Pakistani Ambassador to China Salman Bashir, who presented him the ‘Letters of Credence’ at the Great Hall of the People. President Hu Jintao said the two countries had omni-dimensional co-operation in various fields of mutual interest.

He said that he was grateful to Pakistan for its support on the issue of Taiwan, adding that Pakistan was the first country to support the Anti-secession Law, the National People’s Congress passed this month. He also thanked Pakistan for its support to China on Tibet and human rights.

Chinese PM Wen Jiabao will be visiting Pakistan in April. The Chinese president said that the visit would be a success and would enhance traditional ties between the two countries. The ambassador conveyed the greetings of President General Pervez Musharraf to the Chinese president.

Chinese Foreign Minister Li Zhaoxing said that PM Jiabao’s visit to Pakistan would boost bilateral relations. “We hope that the premier’s three-day visit in April will help strengthen the decades old partnership in political and economic fields between the two sides,” he told Ambassador Bashir.

The two sides were working towards a productive and results-oriented visit, said the Chinese foreign minister. He assured that his country would continue to work with Pakistan at all levels to promote regional peace and development. Mr Bashir said the government and people of Pakistan were eagerly awaiting the Chinese premier.

Minister Zhaoxing told the ambassador that he was glad to accept the invitation from Pakistan Foreign Minister Khurshid Mehmood Kasuri to address a seminar of the Asian Co-operation Dialogue (ACD), scheduled in Islamabad for April 5.

Ambassador Bashir, who recently arrived in Beijing as Pakistan’s new representative to China, also met other Chinese leaders, including Minister of Commerce Bo Xilai. They hoped that the Free Trade Agreement (FTA) between the two countries would be hammered out. Pakistani experts are currently in Beijing to negotiate the FTA. app
