China kills its own citizens through pollution

I have been in China during the past four years and I suffered serious respiratory problems with each stay. I was hospitalised twice due to lung infection. On return to Australia the first thing I noticed was blue sky. I have had no respiratory problems since coming home.
China has the world's worst air and the fact that hundreds of thousands of Chinese die from pollution derived causes should awaken Hu and Wen to this crisis.
Being at par with the industrialised West is no excuse for killing one's own citizens through greed and neglect.
