The media survey results for the question: "If there were a next life, would you like to be a Chinese." In early September, an online survey conducted by NetEase incited a wave of political uproar with the finding that 64 percent of Chinese people "do not want to be Chinese in their next life." As a result of this survey, NetEase Chief Director Tang Yan and Chief Commentator Liu Xianghui were dismissed from their jobs. Several world-renowned news organizations were puzzled by the reaction of the Chinese authorities. It is well known that Chinese authorities cannot tolerate disparities in political views, yet this topic is apolitical. One must wonder where the Chinese government draws the line concerning repression of speech? These news organizations naturally do not understand the significance of such a topic in China. The Chinese regime's current existence relies on controlling the Chinese people through infusing them with pro-nationalism sentiment. How does the Chinese authority utilize patriotism, which has persisted and evolved over thousands of years, to bring people together, thus solidifying its political stance? This involves historic factors and targeted, precise manipulation. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) gained political power by tactfully using the Chinese people's nationalist sentiments during the war against Japan over half a century ago. The CCP has since exploited educational institutions and the media to modify the contents of "patriotism" according to its own political agenda. Pro-nationalism education was emphasized less in the mid 1980s but regained popularity in the 1990s, after the Tiananmen student uprising. We have to state that China does not allow the formation of independent associations. All organizations, "units," or "groups of people" are under the control of the government and its political organizations, with the CCP branch office as the highest leader. The results of this survey conducted by NetEase lets the Chinese authorities realize, in no uncertain terms, a fact that they most certainly do not like: The Chinese people's opinion of the CCP is not a positive one. The CCP's last tool, patriotism, has lost its power. The Chinese people have voiced their dissatisfaction with the current situation by saying that "they do not want to be Chinese in their next life." Special attention
should be paid to the bottom line of this survey, which is that the
Chinese people have rediscovered the proper dignity of a human being.
Back TAIPEI—According to a report by Hong Kong's Sing Tao Daily, Luo Buzang, principal of the Hezuo Teacher Training College in Gansu Province, shot Yang Zhihong, the Communist Party chief at the college in late September. Luo then shot himself and died later from gunshot wounds. The Chinese authorities have blocked the release of this incident until now. The shooting incident took place in Hezuo City, capital of the Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Gansu. Both the murderer and the victim were two senior Tibetan college officials. According to the report, the incident happened on the morning of Sep. 27. Luo Buzang obtained a gun, broke into Yang Zhihong's office, and fired a fatal shot at Yang's head from a short distance. Yang died instantly from the wound. Later Luo committed suicide by shooting himself in the head, and died two days later. The incident shocked the whole school. First reactions to the case were, "Oh my, the principal killed the head of the school's Party committee!" A student said that it was the darkest moment in the school's history. The Hezuo Teacher Training College is the most important school in the Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture. Early in September, the school just passed accreditation granted by the Chinese Ministry of Education. It would soon be upgraded in status to undergraduate college. According to official information, Luo, a 50-year-old professor holding a master's degree from the Central Chinese Communist Party School, and a member of the Chinese Communist Party, had worked there since the school was established. In 1994, he took up the position of vice principal and was promoted to principal in 2001. He is the heart of the school's drive and forward movement. Yang, at the age of 55, successively held the positions of county mayor, director of the Education Bureau of the Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, vice commissioner, and deputy secretary of the prefecture. In 2004, he was transferred to serve as secretary of the Communist Party Committee of the Hezuo Teacher Training School. One report quoted
a source as saying that Luo felt shunted by Yang because the latter
had done a great deal to improve school effectiveness in all aspects
since he came on the scene.Back Shanghai Party Chief Chen Liangyu was recently dismissed for his involvement in corruption schemes. He was investigated by the Communist Party Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. Chen Liangyu is the most senior official to have been removed during the anti-corruption campaign since Hu Jintao took over as General Secretary of the CCP in 2002. The Voice of America asked the mainland Chinese people what they thought about the dismissal. Mr. Chen from Shaanxi Province said that corruption amongst Chinese officials is common and that the people he knows are not surprised by the charges against Chen. He believes Chen's dismissal will not decrease the ever-increasing amount of corruption: "The dismissal of Chen Liangyu shows that the corruption in contemporary Chinese society is no longer surprising. The Chinese authorities are promoting anti-corruption every day, but more and more corruption can still be seen. The crackdown on corruption is meant to deceive the public. The one-party dictatorship is the corruption." Mr. Zhang from Hebei Province said that Chen's corruption existed for a very long time. "Chen Liangyu's trial is long overdue because the Shanghai people have felt very negatively about him for a very long time. Why was he not exposed before today? Some experts in China often claim there is judicial and media supervision. I ask: are the Shanghai officials and judicial system supervising Chen Liangyu or being supervised by Chen Liangyu." Analysts believe that even though Chen's dismissal shows some determination by the CCP to combat corruption, the incident has an inextricable link to a power struggle within the Communist Party. Considering the political arrangement of the Party's 17th Congress next year, Chen Liangyu's case is significant. Mr. Lin of Shanghai said that under Chen's government, Shanghai people have suffered from a dark ruling: "Chen Liangyu is a traitor. He has sold all the land in Shanghai. How will our children eat in the future? Shanghai is shadowed with darkness, and people have suffered too much." Mr. Kai from Hainan
Province believed that Chen, even though deserving of dismissal, is
a scapegoat in the CCP political struggle. "For several thousand
years, the Chinese have been governed by a dictatorial regime. Both
those who step up and those who step down are the victims of political
struggle. The Chinese officials have engaged in corruption and power
struggles, and the people are the ones who have suffered through centuries
of dictatorship." Back CHINA—On Sep.30, Chinese border patrols open-fired on Tibetan refugees who were on their way into exile in Nepal through the Nangpa Pass. Up to seven people were killed. The incident was reported by mountain climbers and a Tibetan lama who resides in India. According to a International Campaign for Tibet (ICT) report, climbers who were atop mountain Cho Oyu, (approximately 20 km west of Mount Everest at the border between Tibet and Nepal), witnessed the Chinese border patrol firing at the Tibetans without any warning. Some of the refugees were children as young as ten. The witnesses reported to ICT through email via satellite. Radio Free Asia reported, with their source being a lama from north India, that about 70 Tibetans were trying to escape, but in the end only 43 of them made their safe way to Nepal. Seven were shot dead, including a nun and a boy. The lama said his temple held a ceremony for the dead on Oct. 5. The whereabouts of the 20 remaining Tibetans from the group is not known. A local source said these Tibetans might have been apprehended by Chinese security forces because Chinese military vehicles, including ambulances, had been seen at a road close to the incident location on the same day. A Chinese Consulate staff member in Nepal indicated that they had not heard of this incident and that the consulate was still on holidays. According to ICT, each year approximately 2000-3000 Tibetans complete the dangerous Himalayan trek from Tibet via Nepal to the headquarters of the Tibetan Government in Exile located in northern India's Dharamsala. The Tibetans seek freedom from over 50 years of Chinese occupation. Over 1 million Tibetans are believed to have been killed under the Chinese Communist Party. According to rights groups, torture of Tibetan monks and nuns in Chinese labor camps remains rampant. The Nepalese government
helps the runaway Tibetans to the Tibet Refugee Reception Center,
where their transfer to India is arranged. The Chinese authorities
have repeatedly protested to the Nepalese government, and demanded
that the refugees be repatriated to Tibet. Back October 1 is the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)'s "National Day" to celebrate its usurpation of power in China 57 years ago. But last year, the Global Service Center of Quitting the Chinese Communist Party declared October 1 as China's "National Day of Mourning." On the second National Day of Mourning, over 14 million Chinese people have announced their resignations from the CCP and its affiliated organizations. An Epoch Times reporter interviewed the director of the Global Service Center, Dr. Gao Dawei. Dr. Gao said that circumstances have changed greatly since the last National Day of Mourning. In the past year, he said, more and more Chinese people have woken up to the truth, and the governments and people of many other countries have also started to condemn the CCP's evil crimes. Dr. Gao appealed to all Chinese people, including CCP officials and soldiers, to publicly condemn the CCP and quit the CCP so as to peacefully disintegrate the evil party. The Spiritual Awakening in China Dr. Gao said that the past year has witnessed the spiritual awakening in China which inspired over 14 million people to announce their resignation from the CCP and its affiliated organizations on the Tuidang (Quit the CCP) website, despite the Internet blockade and suppression by the CCP. Many Chinese people in mainland China have been spreading the news about the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party and about the mass resignations from the CCP. Various methods have been adopted to spread this information, including writing the message on paper money, putting up posters in the streets, and even TV broadcasting. Recently in Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province, Jiang Zemin's hometown, a TV program spliced into the broadcasting system about the Nine Commentaries and the mass resignations was broadcast for a whole night. Another suggestion Gao gave is that Chinese people, after so many years of suffering under the CCP's persecution, should get together and publicly reveal and condemn the CCP's crimes. Such gatherings, said Gao, will strengthen the power of justice. Gao emphasized that if Chinese people could unite their forces in condemning the CCP and revealing its crimes, no one would need to fear the CCP any more. In this way people would be able to protect themselves from the CCP's persecution, and accelerate the disintegration of the communist regime. Back Three
Gorges Dam Project is Like 'the Emperor's New Clothes' Back In 1986, The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Central Committee and China's State Council commissioned a feasibility study for the Three Gorges Dam (TGD) project. Professor Huang Wanli, a hydrologist from Tsinghua University was not one of the 412 experts involved in the study. There were reasons for this snub; Professor Huang had previously opposed the construction of the Sanmenxi Dam on the Yellow River. After the Sanmenxi Dam was completed, it failed to perform as expected, just as he had predicted. He also predicted the TGD’s failure. Given that Professor Huang was excluded from the TGD planning group, no mainland media dared to publish his articles that were disapproving of the TGD project. Consequently, Professor Huang repeatedly wrote letters to Jiang Zemin (the CCP leader at that time) and the CCP Central Politburo, requesting open discussions about the TGD project. He also asked the top leaders to give him 30 minutes in which to explain why they should "never dam the Three Gorges." In the last stage of his life, Professor Huang often told his children and friends, "I foresee a terrible outcome for the TGD. You will witness it; remember to watch what happens for me; I hope that my predictions are wrong, otherwise the losses will be huge." All the Leaders Were Missing! On May 20, 2006, the main section of the world's largest hydroelectric dam was completed but not a single communist regime leader. The absence of leaders at the ceremony conveys a negative signal to the people. It shows that the future of the project is in jeopardy. But the mainland media tried their best to turn "a bad thing into a good thing." The Three Gorges Dam Is Like the "Emperor's New Clothes". The TGD is the
"new clothes" that the two scoundrels in the fable presented
to the emperor. The TGD was predicted to have many wonderful benefits. Professor Huang was the child who announced that the “Emperor has no clothes on”. Every promised benefit is failing to materialize. Back |
