我们的好总理 Our Premier


这是温家宝总理致新华社的一封手写信件,更正自己在发言中犯得一个地质学上的错误。如果我没记错的话,温总理正是地质学出身。总理对待事实一丝不苟,并且敢于公开承认自己的错误,让我十分敬佩!总理此书不仅言表个人,更对中国官员有一种示范作用。

Here I try to make a description in English....

This is from news.sina.com.cn, publishing a hand-written letter from our Premier Wen Jiabao to Xinhua News Agency. In his letter he pointed out a minor mistake in one of his article discussing his personal view of teachers' role in education. The mistake is so minor (and technical) that only geologists will recognize it. I admire his action of openly admitting his personal mistake as Premier, as this should set good example for all the Chinese officials!

Ni hao,
xiexie ni for commenting on Beijing Notebook. I really was curious to know if "grain" is in "wo". Thanks!
However my Chinese is really basic - survival level - so I cannot read this post.
Sorry. Too bad.
