My comment:
(a) Please
(i) take a look at the Multimedia to the left of the report; and
(ii) Read the first seven and the last six paragraphs of the text.

That is enough.
(b) A british newspaper reported, months after the crash, that a trojian horse, planted by CIA in a software, was responsible for the crash of China AWACS plane. Who knows?

My comment: I wonder who the audience may be: China, US or Taiwanese?

("无论是台湾问题还是朝鲜问题，汇率问题或者美国重返亚洲等，无论美国怎么解释自己的立场，中国就是不信，总认为美国别有用心。而中国的保证和承诺，对美国国会和民众来说，又总是显得是那么缺乏说服力")

(4) 印度IT企业瞩目中国市场. VOA Chinese, Jan 17, 2011.

("2009年，印度向中国出口了总值为500亿美元的信息技术服务。和印度对西方市场提供的IT产业服务相比，这个数字并不显眼")

My comment: $50bn is a lot of money. But China does not trust cloud computing, for fear of (industrial or intelligence) espionage. The angst may be legitigate. How is it possible that India can get a bigger pie in China?
