What the? Why are there semicolons instead of commas after Think Globally, Lead Responsibly? Like...I can see why if someone had this in a word processor, the word processor might put a red underline and tell you to add a semicolon. "Think Globally" is technically a complete sentence. But in this context it's an object, enumerating core values.

For a list preceded by a colon, if one or more of those items has a comma, most style guides will recommend the use of semicolons in order to make things clear.

The weirdest thing about this for me is that I don't really mind this being a compromise between western and Chinese interests, though the punishment's still kinda harsh. Just, you know, don't lie to me and tell me it wasn't.
