2. Chinese Villager Dear Hu Jintao and residing chairmen, I have lived here on the Yangtze River for all my life. This honorable village where I was raised holds many joyful memories for me. To destroy my hometown for the purpose of a shipping lane is immoral. Do you not respect the historical value and natural beauty that my village holds? You are too blinded by dollar signs to care. Sincerely, Ling Tao

3. Chinese Businessman Dear honorable government, What a wonderful decision you have made to finally create such a beautiful and amazing innovation in construction! I work for a subsidiary of the State Grid Corporation located in Shanghai. The hydroelectricity you have generated has brought much business to us. China’s demand for electricity is increasing more and more everyday! And thanks to you, we will continue to sell electricity as long as the Yangtze keeps flowing. Regards, Xing Lao
