Starbucks Coffee Shop Forbidden City

In a context of all the other retail outlets, the ones pushing plastic jade beats, cigarette lighter...., the coffee shop Starbucks seems preety harmless for me!
In my opinion the discussion about the "Starbucks" in "Forbdden City"shows up the dramatic changes that is happening in China as explified in the Forbidden City and is a result of the inevitable globalization phenomenon!
Yesterday I found a photo in the internet showing a Cup of Green Tea inside of the Forbidden City Starbucks. Maybe this is the future. Finding compromisses, living in a multi cultural society!
Anyway: Last monday I visited the Forbidden City and I had a rest at Starbucks, engrossed in thoughts.
