#1 I dunno - IMO something is fishy here as Commies are known for their love of [heavy-duty] military-grade/applics in civie construction. IFF THIS ARTIC IS CORRECT THEN SOME CHIN BUREAU = COMMIE/MAO-CRAT REALLY DROPPED THE BALL ON THIS HOTEL [read, FUTURE GULAG = RE-EDUC CAMP BAIT].

* WORLD MIL FORUM > A NUMBER OF CHIN NETTERS ARE NOT CONVINCED, + THINK THIS COULD BE "CHINA'S 9-11/WTC 1993", a possible precursor to something worse to occur later on???

#2 As soon as the Chinese figure out that you can take a 16-count box of mortars, stand it on its side, and launch it at the People's Armed Police, then they're in trouble. Their fireworks are EXTREMELY strong and loud, far more than needed to be colorful. This is because the sound is believed to scare away ghosts.

#6 It is a fine line between fireworks and an MLRS.
