China Expert to Protest High Gas Prices With Horse Ride in Santa Monica Sunday, April 13

Posted on: Thursday, 10 April 2008, 12:00 CDT

As another means of protesting the escalating gas prices, Peter de Krassel, an internationally-renowned expert on China (www.custommadebook.com), business entrepreneur, author, columnist and lecturer, will ride a horse--attired in contemporary Chinese clothing--on San Vicente Blvd in Santa Monica on Sunday, April 13, between 11:30 and 12 noon. At the conclusion of the ride, de Krassel will hold a news conference to discuss a variety of subjects relating to China and then conduct a "book signing" for his new book at The Office, a popular workplace for writers and other professionals.

de Krassel opines that the high price of oil is not the fault of China but rather the Arab oil producing countries and American energy companies and that not only has the Iraq War not resulted in cheap oil and money to pay for the cost of the war, but the reverse has happened. Other subjects he will discuss include:

The competition between China and the U.S. for Middle East oil--one which the U.S. is losing.

The only solution to the Iraq War--from the Chinese perspective.

Need for U.S. and China to be "geopolitical partners" if the world is to survive.

China's view of the U.S. Presidential election and candidates.
