Enough Is Enough
After Nanjing, the PRC government continues to put the brakes on anti-Japanese demonstrations, arresting 42 protesters for acts of violence in the 16 April Shanghai rally. In fact, the state media in Shanghai has been acting in curious ways, leading up to today's operation. Whether what the police is doing complements or conflicts with what the newspapers are doing is anyone's guess. In a related story, the China Federation for Defending Diaoyutai Islands have announced that they will not apply for a rally on 4 May, in light of “the big picture” as the Hu and Koizumi governments seek diplomatic means out of the current impasse. See the extended entry for translations of the news articles. AFTER THE PASSION OF ANTI-JAPANESE PROTESTS, CHINA ARRESTS 42 IN SHANGHAI FOR VIOLENCE IN DEMONSTRATIONS CFDD CANCELS MAY FOURTH RALLY Personal spam: please visit my website at http://www.plum-blossom.net/, if you're not offended by my shameless self-promotion. posted by Kelvin on 04.27.05 at 02:03 AM in the China politics category.

While we should have the right to protest what we may not like, but this sort of behavior any where in the world may not accomplish much. There are better ways (e.g. diplomacy) to get things done. posted by: MYNIPPON on 04.27.05 at 02:54 AM [permalink] |
