China - um mês saiu para melhorar direitas humanas
Terça-feira, julho 8o, 2008 Discuta este relatório nos forums de RINF > Um mês antes que a abertura do internacional de Amnesty dos Olympics emitir hoje uma letra aberta a Hu Jintao, presidente da República Popular da China, incitando o entregar nas promessas feitas para melhorar as direitas humanas do país. “Se China pode mobilise milhares de povos para limpar a tempo acima das algas em suas praias para os Olympics, certamente pode também limpar acima de seu registro das direitas humanas para fornecer um legacy positivo dos Olympics enquanto prometeu quando concedido os jogos,” diz o alfaiate de Margaret, spokesperson internacional do Amnesty. “China sadly parece ainda faltar a vontade política para entregar naquelas promessas, que é porque internacional de Amnesty tem convidado hoje Hu Jintao para cometer às seguintes recomendações,” diz o alfaiate. Cinco recomendações: A letra aberta às características de Hu Jintao abaixo. –
Abra a letra a Hu Jintao Hu Jintao 8 julho 2008 Com um mês restante até que o começo muito-antecipado do Olympiad XXIX em Beijing, mim pedir que você faça exame de cinco etapas para o “desenvolvimento das direitas humanas” prometidas pelo comitê da oferta dos Olympics de Beijing em 2001. Sobre o ano passado o internacional de Amnesty coletou centenas dos milhares das vozes em torno do mundo que ecoa esta chamada. Eu junto-os em incitá-lo fazer exame desta oportunidade historic de agir. Internacional de Amnesty reconhece os esforços do governo chinês dirigir-se a alguns interesses longstanding das direitas humanas. Eu sou incentivado particularmente pelo progresso aparente feito em reduzir o uso da penalidade de morte com o processo supremo da revisão da corte de povos. I also appreciate recent statements by a number of Chinese officials, including Chief Justice Xiao Yang, that China is following the global trend towards abolishing the death penalty. Amnesty International also welcomes the news that 1,157 people held in connection with the protests in Tibetan-populated areas of China last March have been released. The official commitment to “full media freedom” and regulations for foreign journalists represents another step towards realising greater freedom of expression for journalists. These developments notwithstanding, the preparation for the Olympics has actually had a negative impact in some areas of human rights. Official persecution of human rights activists continues, particularly those making connections between ongoing human rights violations and China’s hosting of the Olympics, including Ye Guozhu, Hu Jia and Yang Chunlin who are serving prison sentences solely for having expressed their views peacefully. The “clean-up” of Beijing through the extended use of Re-education Through Labour is a worrying development, particularly as it ignores domestic calls for reform of this arbitrary system of detention. Amnesty International calls on you to grasp the opportunity of the Olympic Games to implement the following five recommendations—supported by many inside and outside China—before the Games begin: * Release all prisoners of conscience - including Ye Guozhu, Hu Jia, Yang Chunlin and any others detained in connection with the hosting of the Olympics solely for expressing their views peacefully; * Prevent the police from arbitrarily detaining petitioners, human rights activists and others as part of a pre-Olympics “clean-up”; * Publish full national statistics on the death penalty, commit to a reduction in the number of capital crimes – especially those for non-violent offences – and introduce a moratorium on executions in line with UN General Assembly resolution 62/149 adopted on 18 December 2007; * Allow full access and freedom of reporting for both Chinese and international journalists in all parts of China in line with promises of “complete media freedom” in the run-up to the Games; * Account for all those killed or detained in the wake of the March 2008 protests in Tibet, particularly 116 people officially acknowledged to still be in custody, and ensure that those detained for their involvement in peaceful protests are released and that others receive a fair trial. I believe that delivering on these five points will go a long way towards the Games being remembered not only for positive achievements on the sports field but in the field of human rights as well.

One month to do what? To recognize that the first human right is the right to live?
Each year, 1,710,000 baby girls disappear in China. This major human rights abuse seems to be an accepted travesty as no one speaks of this horrific gendercide (the singling out of baby girls for death).
By the time population growth in China will reach a plateau, 133 million females would have been “missed” since infancy!!!!
For a more comprehensive analysis of infanticide in China, please view my presentation for the U.N. last year, accessed from the left bar on my home page at http://www.TaliaCarner.com
