Caption Contest #5
AND THE WINNER IS... Lucas, with a caption that I enjoyed particularly this week as I abandoned coverage of Xinjiang to concentrate on the tumult in Tibet:
NUR: How could you choose this week to stage our triumphant victory over the Muslim savages? You did realize that Tibetans all over Asia were staging protests at the same time, RIGHT?
WANG: THEY WERE!?!? Shit, our 15 minutes of fame are over, there goes my chances of making the BBC Front Page.
Ouyang's "who farted?" joke was the runner-up.
••••
Must... resist... the urge to... CAPTION CONTEST!
Yet resistance is futile. With the exciting and terrifying events of the past week here in Xinjiang, even the most simple-minded of my many readers should be able to come up with a side-splitting caption to go along with this photo.
The picture above shows Xinjiang Communist Party secretary Wang Lequan (left) and recently annointed Xinjiang Governor Nur Bekri (right) whispering to each other during a meeting at the National People's Congress a few days ago. You fill in the blanks.
This contest ends at midnight on Friday, March 21st. May the 'three evil forces' be with you!

Nur: I have to tell them about the plane.
Wang: OK, be sure not to tell them it was just baby oil in the bottle.

More than 60% of Chinese know that USA is the biggest sponsor of terrorists in XinJiang.

To Ouyang:
So where are the other 40 percent?

@dave zimmerman: I believe you meant to direct your comment at dyn, not ouyang.

To dave zimmerman:
The other 40 percent who are not familiar with Ugyhurs equate Ugyhurs with terrorists.
Because most Han Chinese detest Islam.
I am a Chinese.

@michael: Sadly, most of the social sensibilities which I learned from all those sophisticated ex-pats in China have faded away.

Nur: This would be a bad time to mention the new nuclear testing at Lop Nor and special Han immigration incentives...right?
Wang: "you're dang straight."

It was clear to everyone that the debate was not going well for the Chinese, who were hard pressed for intelligent rebuttals. This was confirmed when their closing statements were reduced to fart noises.
