China starts filtering Google internet access

The Google users in China are an upset lot in the last few days. The Chinese government has started implementing the filtering software in a big way, and is insisting on the software being installed on every new PC or Laptop that is manufactured in the country.
Google has already opposed the move, and has been exerting pressure on China government to remove the filtering software from the computers. But the Chinese government seems to be very firm in implementing its policy, and has in fact retaliated to the US government that Google spreads obscene and violent material through internet, which are against the law of the land.
For Google, China is an important market, and if too much restrictions are placed on it by the government, then it might lose the growth potential in no time. So let us see how Google tackles this tough issue. It has lesser time and lesser support from US government on the issue, and it needs to take up the issue directly with the Chinese authorities.

The problems for General Motors are continuing and the Hummer brand continues to haunt the company. In the last few years, the Hummer brand has been haunting the company because of crashing sales and huge resultant losses.
The company got a sigh of relief few weeks back, when the Chinese Heavy Industrial Machinery Maker, Sichuan Tengzhong, agreed to buyout the Hummer brand and nurture it back to health with dominant contribution from Chinese market sales.
But the China’s top economic planning agency feels that the company is not capable of turning around the Hummer brand, and might ask the company to scrap the deal.
This could be a big blow for General Motors,which is already reeling under the pressure of crashing sales across US and Europe in the last two years.
