China's temporary media laws - designed to give greater, freedoms to foreign journalists during the Olympics, are due to expire on Friday.

The Chinese government has given no indication that it plans to renew the law.

That could see reporters once again having to seek permission every time they want to leave Beijing.

Melissa Chan reports.

  • LOL! AL Jazeera plays innocent and naive here.

    IT IS A WELL KNOWN FACT that American CIA has been recuiting jounalists, including non-US foreign jounalists to work for them.

    More information, Google "CIA recuiting Jounalists"

  • BTW, the "professionalism" of some reporters in China are highly questionable if they don't have any hidden agenda.

    Tony Cheng of Al Jazeera reported the inflation rate in China is "about 20%" in the video clip "China's widening wealth gap - 17 Oct 07" (v=v=L-G5KiYAly4 at time mark 2:04) while the actual inflation rate is only 6.5%.

    Al Jazeera has never explained why he made such huge gross mistake.

  • China is fascist

  • yeah china is "free"

    i can smell it right here...

  • i am agree with you

    only fool people think that muslim = terrorist

    but as you mentioned it is just motive of economy. if it wasnt that how con a person who wested his weekend in Discos at night become a muslim leader(Osama).

  • It is going to get worse.

    I dont hate Americans, I dont hate Muslims. Every person is equal. The only difference is that they were born in different places.

    The real evil is the government that uses this fact to make people think they are better. That all muslims are fearsome terrorists. And because they are better, they have to do something about it. Thats what the government makes people think. While they know terrorist threats arent that big, their motives are pure economic.

  • what do you mean?

  • just wait

  • people who hate Americans are just jealous because they live in shitty countries. Take China for example.

  • The law has been renewed....this is late

  • who ever become president in the USA, it will not change much, becouse in background are others who take decisions.

    secondly there is just needed that USA focus on the mistake they did(supporting taliban against USSR and than they bacom a big danger & shit for my country) so USA is responsible for creating this shit.

    thirdly america with its allies has to come out of my country otherwise there situetion will soon be worse than the Sowjets in Afghanistan.

  • you're afghan? so that means you're muslim. i'm muslim too. we shouldn't be fighting bro. and don't worry, as soon as barack becomes president, he will focus on killing the taliban network and everything will be good
