Discent in China

China has always been a country that emphasized the importance of country unity and self-sacrifice. So it's unsurprising that any open (or even just noticable outside of China) discent in China is immediatley noticed and commented on. Mr. Bo, a high ranking Chinese official, cast a dessenting vote within the Politburo. Since then he's been put under an investigation, house arrest, and essentially replaced. In other words, the Chiness government does not appriciate open disagreement. This is probably going to smooth itself over and fade into the background to be picked apart at a latter point in time when dissent in china has gone past the point of no return.
