"That may be true," Vivian nodded, "The unfortunate truth is, we have more than one grandfather in a sense, and some officials from Sai Wan may take the matter seriously."

"You have a point there," I was forced to agree, "Nonetheless, that problem is easily solved. In fact, all I am going to promise is the withdrawal of the National Education as a separate subject - I'm not withdrawing the material."

"My dear, devils are always in the detail," I explained, "I mean I shall keep all the brainwashing materials and infuse them here and there into the existing curriculum. That's actually why I hesitate to support withdrawal of the subject. When there is a well-defined one, people can scrutinize the content easily. But, when all the toxic materials are gradually provided from every angle, it is more difficult to notice and get rid of."
