Subject: CUTBACKS ON PANDA FRILLS IN CHENGDU Fri Jun 13, 2008 9:12 am
I was reading China Daily as I do every morning and found this very interesting article on the Chengdu Panda Base having to cut back on the extras the pandas get because of reduced tourism traffic to the panda base A very good read!
I can't wait to go back and see Bao Shi!!! Seeing these pix brings back a flood of beautiful memories

Good article, but very troubling. I wish I could give the base enough money to buy everything they would need. It is very frustrating. I hope more people will be visiting. I think wth the olympics more tourists will visit. The report on NBC news about the pandas will make more people aware. I must say that the news need to report that Chengdu is open and in need of visitors to help take care of the Pandas.

That is unfortunate about the cut backs. I agree, I wish the news would have made it clear how much support they still need. Maybe added how people could make donations. I was very surprised that our local paper (small) had an article about the devastated Panda Base today.
