RE: RE: RE: RE: TRE vs. SVM vs. ONP These are entirely different situations, like comparing apples with oranges. In the 'play to lose case', the players involved were obviously wrong, and there was nothing the Chinese government could say to defend their players. In the case of Swimmer Ye, they were wise to refrain from saying anything. Instead, they let the results of her urine test do the talking, and the allegations were quickly discarded.
Now, in sinoforest's case, there was no justification whatsoever when they could totally within their power help clarify sinoforest's tree ownership and tell OSC what it wanted to know. But, instead, they let sinoforest die. Again, you have to wonder why.
Apply the same logic? Here is one for you: one's interest governs one's behavior. Plain and simple.
