RAK, dont read, you are only interested in new things.

It is more important for the Chinese themselves should treasure the heritage
sites. UNESCO or no UNESCO, it will be sad if the Chinese themselves don't
treasure it, instead exploit it for money.

Since this post is posted to soc.culture.hongkong (and I helpfully X-
posted to hk.politics too), well, how's the above qualitatively

The building philosophy your link quoted and other similarites are
uncanny.

Shouldn't half of Hong Kong be some heritage site too now? And if not
now as some are averse to modernity, then couple centuries from now?

well , the Chinese invented their own Shangr i - La which did
not exist before .

Very soon tacky RAK will propose Luxor Hotel Las Vagas as world
heritage site. Haha!
