【禁闻】中国面临农民工积怨大爆发危险

【新唐人2011年6月22日讯】英国《金融时报》6月19号发表英文社论说，中国农民工因
受到不公平的待遇，而发生群体性抗议事件不断增加，中国正面临农民工积怨大爆发的
危险。海内外学者指出，农民工处在社会的最底层，他们的权益不断被剥夺，与中共利
益集团的冲突越来越尖锐。

《金融时报》的社论举例说，中国东部城市制造葬礼用铝箔纸的农民工，举行要求铅中
毒赔偿的抗议；在广东，当地治安人员推搡一名怀孕的外地摊贩，导致数千农民工暴动
3天；在广东的另一起事件中，一名讨薪的农民工被刺伤，引发农民工与警方的冲突。

社论说，这只是每年数以万计的群体性事件中的3个例子。尽管当局尽了最大的努力阻
止此类消息的传播，但是仍然能通过互联网和手机流传到全国各地。中共非常担心地方
事件引发全国动乱。

国务院发展研究中心的一份报告，把社会动荡的原因归咎于：约1亿5千万农民工被边缘
化和受歧视，而他们却是过去30年中国快速发展的苦力。报告说，如果处理不当，这种
情况可能变成对国家稳定的巨大威胁。

原美国中文网刊《大参考》主编李洪宽分析说：

李洪宽（《大参考》主编）【录音】「就其根本的原因还是中国的社会制度非常不合理
造成的。中国的社会转型是在一种完全没有公平正义基础上匆匆忙忙实现的，现在大饼
已经分割完毕。农民工基本上孩子上不起学，得病看不起，自己工作当中正常的权利完
全得不到保障。而同时经济高速发展，高楼大厦、灯红酒绿，繁荣的非常繁荣，贫穷的
接近赤贫。」【声音来源：自由亚洲电台】

《金融时报》的社论说，中国近年来通货膨胀加速，食品价格一年上涨10%以上，房地
产泡沫面临破灭的危险。其次是对土地的征用，在拆迁和赔偿金问题上，地方官员普遍
中饱私囊，都引起了农民工和失地农民的怨恨。

6月16号，安徽省合肥市失地农民王本华，驾驶三轮车营运，遭到交警用警车野蛮驱
赶，以致三轮车损坏、王本华当场瘫倒，引发数千民众与警察大规模冲突，数十人被抓
捕，上千民众连续4天堵路抗议。当地市民表示，这次交警野蛮执法只是导火线，引爆
失地农民未获合理补偿的积怨。

中国社科院农村所「社会问题研究中心」主任于建嵘教授表示，社会不公平，民众不满
情绪在增加，导致�愤事件发生频率增加，以及暴力化趋势增强。他指出，在处置方
面，不能乱镇压，问题没有得到解决，会产生新的怨恨。

纽约城市大学政治学教授夏明分析了，近期接连发生的群体性事件和爆炸事件的原因。

夏明（纽约城市大学政治学教授）：【录音】「因为利益集团的形成，利益集团而且获
利是越来越多，而不想做任何让步。相反在过去的30年，中国有一部分人，尤其是工农
阶层，他们的利益不断遭受损害，或者在被剥夺的情况下，跟现在既得利益集团，也就
是现在以党政权力为中心的利益集团的冲突越来越尖锐。」【声音来源：ABC(澳洲广播
电台)】

《金融时报》的社论建议，应该取消导致城乡不平等的「户口制度」，让农民工和城市
人口享受平等的权利，比如教育、医疗和住房等。

社论最后警告说，目前，中共当局对付抗议事件的办法，还是本能的动用警方力量。但
是，镇压只能起到短期作用，如果不解决真正的深层矛盾，中国就会面临民愤大爆发的
危险。

Migrant Workers vs. Authorities

A UK Financial Times' (FT) editorial on June 19said that due to unfair
treatment of migrant workers,mass protests are on the rise in China.China
risks an explosion of nation-wide unrest.Chinese and foreign scholars
pointed out thatworkers' rights are continuously deprived.The conflict of
interests between the workers and CCP(Chinese Communist Party) is becoming
acute.

The UK editorial gave examples of mass protests.Migrant workers making foil
papers for funeral ritesdemand compensation for lead poisoning.The
mistreatment of a pregnant vendor by localauthorities in Guangdong resulted
in a riot of thousands.Another worker was stabbed for asking for his
wages.This caused a clash between workers and the police.

These are only 3 of tens of thousands riots yearly.Despite the authorities'
best efforts to concealthis information, the news spread via the
Internetand mobile phones. CCP is worriedabout local incidents triggering
nation-wide unrest.

A State Council Development Research Center reportattributed the cause of
social unrests to labor issues.Around 150 million migrant workers are
marginalizedand discriminated against.However, in the past three decades,
they have beenthe reason for the rapid economic development of China.If
handled improperly, stability would be threatened.

Ex-editor-in-chief Li Hongkuan of Big Newsa Chinese-language magazine based
in US, said:

"The fundamental reason is the irrationalityof China's social system.
China's social shiftis not achieved on the basis of fairness and justice.By
now, the pie's distribution has been completed.Migrant workers' children
cannot afford schooling.They have no money for medical treatment.Their
basic rights are not protected.Meanwhile, the rich are enjoying their
wealth.The wealth gap between the rich and poor is still growing."

FT stated China's inflation has been accelerating,with food prices rising
more than 10% a year.The real estate bubble is in danger of bursting.With
land acquisitions and forced house demolitions,local officials across China
continue to fill their pockets.This has built resentment in landless
farmers.

On June 16, landless farmer Wang Benhua in Hefei,Anhui Province, had his
tricycle damaged by police.This triggered a large-scale clashbetween the
police and thousands of people.Dozens were arrested. Thousands protestedby
blocking roads for 4 days.Locals said that police brutality was only a
fuse,which detonated the landless farmers' grievances.

Chinese Academy of Social Sciences Social IssuesResearch Center director
Professor Yu Jianrongbelieves that social injustice andpublic discontent
are on the rise.These lead to more frequent and violent incidents.He said
the solution is not suppression.If the issues remain unresolved,new
resentment will be generated.

NYC University political science Professor, Xia Ming,analyzed the
underlying reasons of recent riots.

Professor Xia Ming: "They are due to the formationof interest groups, who
profit but don't want to makeany concessions. In the past 3 decades, in
China,some people, particularly the workers and farmers,have their
interests damaged and rights deprived.Between them and interest groups
backed by CCP,the conflicts are becoming more and more acute."

FT suggested to abolished the "Hukou system,"which breeds the rural-urban
inequality,so migrant workers can enjoy the same rightsas the urban
residents, like health care.

The editorial warned at the end that, at present,authorities use
suppression to deal with protests.Suppression can only work for a while.If
the underlying causes are not addressed,China risks an explosion of
nation-wide unrest.
