I'm a Sinologist (in-training, anyway...) so yeah you can only guess how excited I am haha. The cynical part of me is sort of wondering whether or not Xi Jinping and co have any ill-intent with this meeting (I'm sure they're aware of how keen Ma is about the whole 'one country, two systems' schtick)...But I dunno. Either way, it's gonna be really fascinating.
