Demographia International周一发表的报告书研究加拿大、美国、英国、澳洲、新西兰和爱尔兰共272个大都会市场后，唿吁各国政府允许在城市边缘地区兴建更多房屋、以帮助降低成本。
报告书说以中位房屋售价与中位家庭收入比较时，去年温哥华房屋市场是世界上最难以负担的城市;多伦多亦首次被列为最难以负担的城市;满地可归类为严重难以负担的城市。
冬奥刺激建筑就业市场。
与新西兰的帕勒迪克(Hugh Pavletich)共同撰写报告书的美国人葛克斯(Wendell Cox)说：「城市规划人士认为我们应停止不断扩大城市，他们甚至使用贬义字---肆意扩展(sprawl)。对他们来说，这等同罪咎。要在城市边缘发展新房屋十分困难，在廉价土地发展边缘房屋的祕密是扩大房屋业主的数字。」

BEIJING — In a gruesome act of resistance that has played out dozens of
times in recent months, six young Tibetans set fire to themselves this week,

sprawl是病态，但是现在越来越觉得这是多样性的一种，适合美国某些地区的一种城市
形态，并没有在全世界蔓延，甚至没有在全西方蔓延，也没有在全美国蔓延。
中国城市，有自己的历史传统和特色。美日都有值得中国城市建设可以借鉴的地方。 |

This year's Nobel Prize in literature winner, Mo Yan, who has been
criticised for his membership in China's Communist Party and reluctance to
speak out against the country's government, has defended censorship as

He also suggested he won't join an appeal calling for the release of the
jailed 2010 Peace Prize laureate, Liu Xiaobo, a fel... 阅读全帖 |

一个不活跃的外交政策的情况
由Barry R.波森一月/二月2013，外交
尽管经历了十年的昂贵和优柔寡断的战争和不断增加的财政压力，美国政策制定者对美
国大战略之间的长期的共识仍然保持完整。作为总统竞选的共和党人和民主党人明确表

，自冷战的最后一年，一个自由主义的霸权战略。这个国家，他们认为，需要保持其在
全球力量平衡的巨大领先地位，巩固其经济优势，扩大市场的民主社会，并保持其影响

要点：
1 2020年预计销售额会平英美德法日电子商务总额。
2 进一步发展取决于中国经济海外扩张速度。
3 海外上市后可能超越苹果/facebook的市值，成为市值最高的公司之一。
4 下一步发展的重点在于阿里云和阿里金融，怎么从国有银行的垄断产业中找到财路。
危机：
1 支付宝事件对以后整个集团的海外上市有不好的影响。
2 海外发展，容易遇到反倾销等政策性制裁，或者像华为一样被围追堵截。
3 由于掌握了庞大的中产人群消费习惯，个人信息；在和政府的合作如何保持商业运营
的独立性。
这个认识以老外来说相当深入了。
