Guardian - Murder most feline: poison cat stew blamed in death of Chinese tycoon

The sudden death of a billionaire in southern China is causing police to ask: was it murder by cat meat?

Long Liyuan, 49, died on 23 December in wealthy Guangdong province after sharing a dish of slow-boiled cat meat stew, a southern delicacy, with two men over a business lunch.

One of the men, local official Huang Guang, was arrested by police on Friday on suspicion of poisoning the hotpot with a toxic herb. Police say Huang and Long had economic disputes

and that's a bad thing.....why?

I'd be more concerned with other cultural mores that might cause issues, like the extraordinary inertia of Chinese culture historically, or the extent of authoritarian government (significantly more than here in the USA).
