The right course
Re “Ship of shame,” editorial, April 24
Your editorial is a masterpiece of inspiration and encouragement. Obviously the Chinese government has yet to learn key virtues from its ancestors -- wisdom and benevolence. As Confucius said of rulers: “Moral disciplines do not simply stand alone. He who keeps them will have neighbors.”
The courageous acts by South Africa, Mozambique and Zambia to stop the entry of Chinese weapons into Zimbabwe is proof that collaboration between stakeholders can prevent potential regional conflicts and crises.
United we stand, divided we fall. Simple and sound.
