I’m sorry, but the “stupid question of the year” contest ended last month. It’s too bad — your question would certainly have been a contender.

There are 19% of Tibetan residents in the earthquake epicenter in Sichuan. Do you care them? Do you even care them a little bit?

Please be awared, most of the Chinese people especially in US hate the government. But they love the nation and the people.

Hello, I’m Korean uni student who lives in seoul.

My english is not so good so I can’t read all of your writing. But I do know you are interested in human rights. So I just want to share with you what was happened in my country.

As you know there were torch seremony in Seoul, Korea. Almost 10,000 Chinese came to one place to watch it.

Thre were a few peoples who has a negetive opinion about chinese government. And chinese were very aggresive to them. Throw the stone, wrench, bottle,,,etc. One reporter was harmed seriously during the situation.

One of the best crazy moment was when chinese attacked one tibet man. So many chinese attaked the tibetan and korean police.

↑This is the video clips of the situation.

I just want to say chinese has to realize what they really doing now. This is not the right way to express their love to their country. And they need to know whay their government really doing to other country who doesn’t have power.

Hi, essential spirit. I’m Korean uni student lives in seoul. My english is not so good, especially reading, so I couldn’t read all of your writings. But I do know you are interseted in the right of the Tibet.

There were torch’s to Beijing olympic in Seoul today(27. april). There were over ten thounds of Chinese came to watch that ceremony.

And those chinese were very aggresive to the people who has negetive opinion abt China. I felt that it’s impossible to talk to them.

I link one video. Which shows many chinese attacks one tibetan. At that time he was doing ONE-PERSON-DEMONSTRATION. And chinese rushed into him and attack him and Korean police. Some of them are in hospital now

I just want to talk to the chinese: It is not the only solution act aggressive. Please listen what other people say to your government. About abused human rights from your government.

And after finish all these things. Please think again what you really did.

Thanx for all the information what I got from your website.

Bye.

Yue, we all hope it ends peacefully with no harm done to anyone.

You can read the U.S. State Department’s 2007 Report on Human Rights Practices in China — http://www.state.gov/g/drl/rls/hrrpt/2007/100518.htm — for specific recent examples of Chinese citizens jailed for expressing their opinions.

Also, see http://www.amnesty.org/en/news-and-updates/news/chinese-activist-gets-jail-sentence-20080403 for the story of Hu Jia, sentenced just this month to 3 1/2 years for expressing concerns about human rights abuses by the Beijing police force.
