LETTER TO SCMP:
Please! I've written many times to your editor about this.
The apostrophe is as important here as with *its* or *it's*.
It's pretty simple really. If it's two characters 西安 it has an apostrophe (Xi'an). If it's one character 县 it has no apostrophe (Xian).
Please, SCMP, *get it right* !! You are the premier English language newspaper with China focus. Surely it's time you got this simple thing correct.
I'm begging you....
Make it a Christmas present to one of your most loyal readers...
Merry Christmas to you and all Post staff!
