BBC China Service Editor Yuwen Wu explains how necessary her broadcast is for regular Chinese and the constant obstacles the regime keeps putting in front of it to impede the vital flow of information.
Yuwen, congratulations, this is very good. If you would like to get in touch you'll find my email through Google or the U of T directory. I am going to China with my son Daniel for a brief vacation. Best, Ivan (your former teacher at Guangzhou and U of T prof).
I marvel that BBC John Sweeney still finds wrongs in China's handling of Sichuan earthquake. His news focuses solely on the negative -- from a Tiananmen victim to a wife of a political prisoner. Then Mr. Sweeney continently concludes that China is a Commy threat. I am sure Mr. Sweeney knows that the current Chinese government has more than 80% supporting rate. But he chooses to ignore it. Why?
Hmm, it seems Hilary Anderson has found Chinese trucks in Sudan; and she has concluded that these are the reason of "massacres" in Darfur! Obviously, because the British is angry at China's support to African self-determination. Of course, she would not consider the British killings in Iraq and Afghanistan "massacres". Lol. Is this the so-called free media of the West? With an increasing number of young Chinese living in the UK, I can see the light at the end -- when the UK lose all credibility!
