North Korea gets blamed; China, South Korea get the mess

(Reuters) - The North Korean torpedo that killed 46 South Korean sailors is rupturing ties across the peninsula, but it is also damaging China's regional standing and its self-portrayal as a helpful broker between its neighbors.

The Article (Reuters) said:

"But for the North's leadership that would require what analysts say would be unacceptable acquiescence to Seoul and put at risk its own legitimacy, based largely on its perceived ability to fend off a hostile world even it means abject poverty for the masses."

It's not only the regional influence China is risking with, but also country's standing to the Chinese people. What kind of message is CCP sending to the people, with all other big rhetorics preached to people? If the country is run like a church, the priest needs to start with himself. Well, before we start the hypocrisy debate, I do think there are some moral values a govt must follow important to its people.
