中國-一個月離開改進人權
星期二， 2008年7月8日 談論這個報告在RINF論壇 > 一個月，在開頭奧林匹克國際特赦組織今天送了一封公開信到胡錦濤之前，中華人民共和國的總統，敦促他交付在被許下的諾言改進國家的人權。 「如果中國在他們的海灘可能動員上千群眾清掃海藻及時奧林匹克，它可能也肯定清掃它的人權紀錄提供一份正面奧林匹克遺產，當它許諾了當授予比賽」，時國際特赦組織發言人說Margaret泰勒。 「中國在那些諾言仍然哀傷地看上去缺乏政治意願交付，是為什麼國際特赦組織今天請求胡錦濤做到以下推薦」，說泰勒。 五個推薦： 給如下胡錦濤特點的公開信。 –
給胡錦濤的公開信 胡錦濤 2008年7月8日 以一個月餘留，直到XXIX奧林匹克運動會的被期望的開始在北京， 2001年我要求您採取五個步驟往北京奧林匹克出價委員會」承諾的人權的「發展。 在去年國際特赦組織收集了世界各地隨聲附和這個電話的成千上萬的聲音。 我加入他們在敦促您利用這歷史的機會行動。 國際特赦組織認可中國政府的努力表達一些耐久人權關心。 我由在減少對死刑的用途獲得的明顯的進展特別鼓勵通過最高人民法院回顧過程。 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. Yours sincerely Discuss this report in the RINF forums > Have Your Say: China - One month left to improve human rights One Response to “China - One month left to improve human rights”

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
