It may seem harrowing to praise a country like China that has such dubious and unenviable records on human rights count. Still, one can learn from it the right earnest way to brow beat the terrorists. Indeed it is a country where no foreigners, not even the lay Chinese people can buy a powerful computer system. An interesting blog post recently related a story on a westerner's experience in China who was trying to buy a powerful Lenovo/Dell or other computers to produce TV videos. He had cash in his pockets but no shop owner in China considered his demand for a second. The whole story can be perused here
However, this story tells one of the very simple reason, why terrorists get terrorised themselves on the simple thought of trespassing that country. While the rest of the world takes pride in opening up its society, the closed doors of China have at least ensured security fot its own people and its merit can never be overstated. Countries like India, the US, UK and others must take a leaf out of this. We must see that this very openness has led to eroding values in many countries like the US and off course India. When we are able to put up a unified resistance to terrorist elements without even a single diisending voice from among ourselves, only then we would have any chance of countering the threat posed by terrorists.
