Unfortunately, as reported in the article, the museum’s cultural practices show little improvement, despite the wealth of public embarrassment Director Xu continues to simmer over nearly a year later.

What will it take for Jay Xu and his colleagues to wake up? Is this their way of asking for more?

Looks like the Museum may have had the last laugh: the parodists recently had an exhibit of their work censored by the de Young Museum, and sounds like the Asian Art Museum had a role in it.
