  1. Sounds like you are just a few months/weeks behind the US in these matters. Maybe that means your country is taking steps soon enough to avert the worst of the problems faster than we have.

    Fingers crossed for the world economy to make a speedy recovery in 2009!

  2. Not sure about the speedy recovery, Carrol. While I hope the people in China don’t suffer too much from this economy downturn, its seems the housing bubble in China will ultimatly end in a bust…
