China unhappy about Liu's award

The Chinese Foreign Ministry has expressed strong displeasure over the choice of Liu Xiaobo as this year's Nobel Peace Prize laureate.

Spokesperson Ma Zhaoxu issued a statement about one hour after the announcement by the Nobel committee in Norway.

Ma said the prize should be awarded to people who contribute to world peace through such acts as promoting ethnic reconciliation and friendship among countries.

Ma reiterated that Liu is serving a prison term for violating Chinese laws, adding that making him a Nobel laureate damages the prize's prestige.

He warned the decision to award Liu the prize will damage relations between China and Norway.

When i stay in China i say Liuxiaobo and his fellowers have done to damage the public setups, pushdown the historic statues, burn the traffic cars and also kill the innocents. However the west media seems do not interested in these truth because their intention is not to report the truth but to something else. So you can see that Liuxiaobo was granted the Nobel Peace Prize due to these non-truth media reports. The western ideology is the main reason for this.
