Dear Zhu,
There are situations in which "not the time" is the best time.
My small (and most respectful) way of saying that since carsharing has or
can have a certain, call it, Yuppie image, it strikes me that it just might
be marketable in . . .
BTW, carsharing does not save the world or even cities. But it can be one of
a very large number of percent solutions, which when you put the all
together you just might have a far more sustainable transport systems.
Requires thought (including driving out a lot of old thoughts from our busy
minds that are probably the most important challenge) and then good old hard
work.
Bottom line: Carsharing could work in China, but needs a hero.

Hi,
I did not have much time to the long article about car in China. But, yes,
car sharing is a new concept for most China people, and many people
misunderstand car sharing and car-pooling. It is not the time.
