Protect China - Not Only Against SARS What are the new statistics from Beijing today? |

Protect China - Not Only Against SARS Luo, I think you are a bit naive. A jump from 877 to 1119 is increadible. If that percentage growth continues for a few more days, this will be a major catastrophe. |

Protect China - Not Only Against SARS From my office, I am not restricted by the great firewall and can see the laogai website. Some of it looks like pure propaganda, but some things are not. I think a major problem with Chinese media is that there is never debate. Whenever news items that are critical of China are published, they are never in turn critiqued by chinese media. The US Report on Human Rights abuses is a perfect example. Chinese media did not go through the report and refute the data that was presented but rather criticized the US for trying once again to interfere in Chinese domestics issues. In my opinion, every chinese person should know exactly what is in the report and Chinese media should be investigating to determine what is true. The biggest item in the report is that 2000 people are still jailed from the tianamen square event and none of them have ever had any sort of trial. Chinese State media won't touch that one because it is true. I would estimate (purely based on personal knowledge and general feelings) that about half of the information on that website (laogai) is pure BS. The issue for the Chinese government is that they cannot debate the detail of what is shown on the website because some of it is true, just as Tom explained above. The Chinese response is to hide it from the Chinese public. Lujiaxi, I think if you want to publish information like that you should at least provide us a source (a weblink or at least the media source). Maybe I am wrong, but I think you just posted an unsubstantiated rumor. In this situation of panic and fear, you should be extremely careful about do such a thing. |

Protect China - Not Only Against SARS Tom, that is the most ridiculous thing that's been posted yet on this website. US and most other international media companies are free to present the news as they feel is correct. If the fabricate stories or incorrectly report news, they lose credibility, and no one believes them. I am not saying that mistakes are never made, but major foreign news media strives to bring you the truth. CNN, The South China Morning Post, The BBC etc would all lose their credibility and go out of business if they did not strive to tell the true. BTW, I would also included Time Magazine in that group. Currently, I am a bit disappointed in coverage by some news companies like CNN, the BBC & SCMP. I feel that these companies are under-reporting the situation in China because they are well aware that if their reporting of China is too out of line with what is reported by Chinese government controlled media, they will be blocked by "The Great Firewall" of China. Time Magazine's website is blocked for just this reason, and not for bad reporting of the current situation. |

Shanghai SARS: Situation Severe 10,000 people under quarrantine in our neighbor city, Nanjing. That doesn't make me feel comfortable at all. Anybody have news on the number of actual cases in Nanjing? |

Shanghai SARS: Situation Severe One issue in China is that the provincial government has a lot of power. Even if the CP government in Beijing instructs the Provincial governments to be honest about reporting, it is unlikely that they will do so just because Beijing tells them to. |
