Forbidden City Connections * One of the main connections I have made in this book that popped in to my head was when I saw about the words Goddess of Democracy and the author describing what it was built for.

Case Study: Google in China MGT/448 Background Google China was founded in 2005 by Kai-Fu Lee, a former Microsoft executive. Google is the number three search engine in China. To avoid governmental censorship and ad hoc shutdown of Google's search engine, the company moved its main office from Beijing to Hong Kong.
