[quote=JOHNNY512,240869]A cup of tea, is it for military use or civilian use? I am reminded of China's former foreign minister, Li ZhaoXing. Once, at a news conference, a foreign jounalist asked him why China's military expense increased so rapidly. He used an analogy to tell the difference between military use and civilian use. He says:" Just take this cup of tea in front of me as an example, if I drink it, it is for civilian use, if this general beside me drink it, it is for military use". A cup of tea, whether it is for military use or civillain use depends on who drinks it. Before, I have never thought that a cup of tea was for military use. When talking about military use, I was immediately reminded of missile, guns, aircraft carriers, nuclear weapons.[/quote]
