Just wanted to retrace some thoughts during my April Biz trip to Shanghai. Despite being a short 4 days trip, the impression and memory of this trip was pretty strong, mainly because of a few key events.

Unfortunately, on mid of March, there were pro-tibetan demonstration around the world during the Olympic torch relay. Putting political views aside, I was very worried about my Tibetan Lama friend's safety. I tried to call him a few times, but his cellphone was off. This had never happened before. I was very concern about his safety as I heard nasty stories before.
This was my facial expression after i heard not so good news.
To aggravate things further, I was caught in a jam in a cab. It was raining outside and it was quite cold at night. felt really sad and lonely. I was afraid that things might not turn out good. A possibility of losing a precious friend might become a reality.

Anyway, I met a "new friend" who was also worried about the safey of our friend that she cried. Because of political sensitivity and for her safety, I did not show the pic of this "new friend".
This was the gift given by my lama tibetan friend (I took it from that "new friend" who visited my lama friend last year). It is a very beautiful piece of art.

Fortunately, during my May biz trip, my lama friend called me on my China Cellphone (which i would only switch on if I am in Shanghai) shortly after I landed in Shanghai. It was such a coincidence. He was very nice to say that everything was going very fine, and asked me not to worry. Well, as usual, he did not share his aweful experiences and said that everything was fine. I did not try to ask more, as I am glad that he is fine. =)
