- what’s great about MIT is that….u gotta meet Robert Solow after studying the Solow’s model….or Noam Chomsky after studying about his syntactic theory…or being asked in an exam about our lecturer’s Nobel chemistry discovery…or studying textbooks that were written by ur academic advisor…or gotta see MIT affiliates receiving the Nobel prize 3 years in a row in ur 3-year-MIT-career… such a superior academic setting. blessed!
- In one day —“US to step up pressure on china over its exchange rate policy..”, “Gates to press china on military ties..”, “Pressure mounts on China to free Nobel winner”…now it makes sense why wen jiabao is selected on Time’s cover…

- an HBS MBA girl from china was sitting next to me on the bus….very interesting. coz she looks younger than me (seriously @@) but once she started to speak..you knew she is 不簡單! i hope one day i could possess such charm too :/
- “The U.S., European nations and a number of emerging markets complain that China is deliberately undervaluing its yuan to aid its exporters. To compete, Japan, South Korea, Brazil and others have taken measures to beat down the value of their currencies as well, leading to fears these efforts may presage a trade war.”
- “It is critical to see more progress by the major emerging economies to more flexible, more market-oriented exchange-rate management,” U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said at an IMF session Saturday, in remarks clearly aimed at China.
