Chinese government switches signals - again By Jin Chen During a December meeting of investors and money managers at the Merdien Hotel in downtown Boston, Harvard University professor Ezra Vogel, a respected western expert on China, said he could foresee a new Silicon Valley in China "stretching from Shenzhen to Beijing." Vogel's vision may clash with the current reality, but it certainly washes with the latest data on Internet usage in China. A July report from the China Internet Network Information Center claimed more than 5 million Internet users and about 10,000 Web sites in China. In a November 1997, the claim was only 0.6 million users and 1,500 Web sites. Yet the government of China continues to send mixed signals about the Internet, which entered the nation only a decade ago. The government emphasizes different aspects of the Internet at different times. It is seen as either a new form of communication that can enhance domestic communications and education or a potential threat to the existing order. Growth of the Internet in China has consequently been encouraged, discouraged and regulated in turn. The long-awaited "Management Methods on Internet Content and Service Provision," finally unveiled on October 1, 2000 and the "Rules Governing Internet-based News Providers," issued on November 7, have shifted direction from what the government had originally planned to do this spring. Both signify that China has toughened its stance on information control via the Internet.

Also, over 250 more places of worship have been forced to close their doors. Catholics in particular seem to be targeted, as unconfirmed reports of several bishops and priests being detained recently have come out. Apparently, religious groups in China are required to register with the government. Government officials claim that their citizens have freedom to worship as they please, so long as their worship is "patriotic." This seems to affect Catholics especially, as the government has long looked on Catholicism as a western "imperialist" institution. A spokesman for the Wenzhou foreign affairs office is quoted: "To maintain social stability, the local government demolished underground churches and temples and other illegal places. They were operating under the cloak of religion. They hoodwinked people, interfered in normal religious activities."

Tactics of Chinese Government Frustrate Labor Organizers By Philip P. Pan Washington Post December 30, 2002 On the second day of the labor protests that seized this rusting industrial city in March, government officials offered to negotiate. For more than an hour, the workers debated how to respond. Then from the cheering, chanting crowd of nearly 30,000 assembled in the streets, a dozen men and women emerged, stepped past the riot police and disappeared into city hall. These "worker representatives" had accomplished something remarkable, bringing together people from scattered factories for the largest labor demonstrations this city's Communist leadership had ever seen. Now, they were entering more dangerous territory, exposing themselves as protest organizers to officials who had been trying to identify and detain them for days. In a second-floor conference room, the workers laid out their grievances - unpaid wages, missing pension funds, corrupt officials who stripped factories of assets and shut them down. City leaders promised to address the workers' complaints if the protests ended. The police chief pledged no one would be arrested, according to two people who were there. The workers agreed to call off the demonstrations and give the government six days to respond. But five days later, the police started taking workers to jail.

It is significant for a number of reasons, the most important of which is that many more children will now have the opportunity to be immunized against hepatitis B and be able to live healthy and productive lives. Today-the 1st of June-and, appropriately, International Children's Day, the government of China is signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Boards of the GAVI and The Vaccine Fund. This MOU represents a shared commitment to increasing children's access to hepatitis B vaccines through China's Expandedand expandingProgram of Immunization. What is GAVI? GAVI is an alliance of partners which aims to address the growing gap between developed and developing countries in access to new and under-used vaccines. GAVI partners also work together with countries to strengthen immunization programs and increase coverage of traditional childhood vaccines as well as prepare the ground for the introduction of new vaccines. Emerging issues in immunization, such as injection safety, have also become a key component of GAVI and Vaccine Fund awards, and is a critical part of the project in China which we are inaugurating today.

Recent Chinese Government Dissident Crackdown: HRIC Press Release (August 6, 1999) In the latest of a series of trials which represent egregious violations of international human rights standards, an abuse of the law and a slap in the face to the international community, the Chinese government sentenced dissident Liu Xianbin to 13 years in prison, the harshest sentence meted out since that imposed on Xu Wenli in December 1998. Facing the serious charge of "conspiracy to overthrow state power," Liu was unable to find defense counsel as a series of lawyers withdrew from the case following pressure from the authorities.

WSWS Chinese government backs development of Linux operating system By Mike Ingram 15 July 2000 Use this version to print An article in the New York Times July 7 reports that the Chinese government is developing a version of the open source computer operating system Linux, as a counterweight to the country's growing dependence on Microsoft Windows. Similar reports have emerged several times this year. In January, Jon Hall, Linux International executive director, said that it was government policy in China to use the operating system across all ministries. Speaking at the Linux World Asia conference, Hall said Wu Jichuan, China's Minister of Information Industries, had told him this during a visit to Beijing in July 1999. The issue has been revived by the Times Security concerns no doubt play a big part in the considerations of the Beijing regime. Last year a cryptographer for a Canadian software firm working in the US said he found a feature in Windows called an NSAKey. This heightened speculation over whether Microsoft software contains a back-door key that could be operated by the National Security Agency, which gathers intelligence for the US government from around the world. Though Microsoft said the key was innocuous and no evidence has been found of its use, the discovery has left many in China and elsewhere suspicious.

Text: Chinese Government Still Jams VOA and RFA Broadcasts (China's media practices seen as unfair) (1130) "Beijing is working hard to prevent the news we report from getting through to the Chinese people" says Joan Mower, communications coordinator for the Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG), the agency that oversees Voice of America (VOA) and Radio Free Asia (RFA). Speaking before the Congressional-Executive Commission on China on December 9, she reported that the Chinese government jams not only VOA and RFA broadcasts but blocks access to their websites as well. "By controlling outside media, the Chinese government has manipulated the news and stopped the United States from telling its side of the story," Mower said. A majority of Chinese people views the United States as their "number one enemy," she said, adding that they remain ill informed of U.S. policy, culture and society. Mower called the Chinese government policies "unfair." She noted that the U.S. government allows over forty journalists from Chinese state media to operate freely in the United States and gives the Chinese state media access to American cable television. In contrast, the Chinese government allows only two U.S. correspondents to work in China for U.S. international broadcasting; other American journalists work under stringent restrictions. VOA and RFA spend millions of dollars every year to broadcast into Asia, Mower said. Costs would be greatly reduced if the Chinese government did not jam the broadcasts, she said.

The electronic forum on the New Wave Net was closed on February 1, 1998, four days after the Procuratorate Daily criticized it on January 27. Earlier reports of the Information Centre and other new agencies said the Chinese government has decided to stamp the dissemination of pro-democracy opinions on the Internet through the following measures: censuring the BBS, setting up computer task force units in the public security offices to search private e-mail accounts, and blocking websites that the government considered to be undesirable. Shanghai computer software engineer Lin Hai has been sentenced to two-year imprisonment for providing mainland e-mail addresses to overseas dissident electronic magazine. Court transcripts show that Lin Hai's private e-mail communication had been read by the police.

CURRENT ISSUE HONG KONG LIBRARY May 2002 CHINESE GOVERNMENT POLICY SHUTS OUT POOREST MIGRANT CHILDREN FROM URBAN SCHOOLS, NEW STUDY SHOWS - Hong Kong Voice of Democracy 7 May, 2002 HUMAN RIGHTS IN CHINA PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 7, 2002 For more information, contact: Nicolas Becquelin (852) 2710 8021 (office) (852) 9805 9120 (mobile) CHINESE GOVERNMENT POLICY SHUTS OUT POOREST MIGRANT CHILDREN FROM URBAN SCHOOLS, NEW STUDY SHOWS Human Rights in China (HRIC) today charges that some of the poorest and most disadvantaged children in China's major cities are being systematically deprived of their right to education because their migrant parents do not hold the sheaf of permits that would make their stay in the urban areas legal. China has created a bureaucratic obstacle course for migrant children that denies them the education to which they are clearly entitled, declared Nicolas Becquelin, Senior Researcher at HRIC. According to available statistics, upwards of 1.8 million children are losing out on their right to education for this reason. In part this exclusion is part of a conscious strategy: municipal governments continue to see limiting access to schooling as a way of deterring further in-migration.
