【禁闻】中国暂停稀土生产 引发国际问题

【禁闻】中国暂停稀土生产 引发国际问题

【新唐人2011年10月28日讯】稀土是现代许多科技产品的关键原材料,中国稀土总产量
占世界稀土产量的95%。近几个月,国际市场上稀土价格下跌了约20%。中国稀土产量占
统治地位的两大公司决定暂停生产,意图提高十七种稀土的市场价格,这引起很多国家
感到不满。

中共前领导人邓小平1992年时曾经说�中东有石油,中国有稀土�。自从那时以来,中
国大力开发稀土资源。

不过世界稀土行业颓势已经引发中国大陆南北稀土停产潮。

继10月19号,中国最大的稀土生产商包钢稀土宣布暂停一个月后,10月25号,南方稀土
龙头五矿赣州稀土矿业公司也宣布自20号开始全面停产。这次停产预计维持3到5个月。

对此,英国《金融时报》表示,中共政府整治稀土行业,引起了全球稀土市场的动荡。

《美国之音》中文网26号报导,世界上很多国家因为受制于中国,正在采取措施。日本
丰田和美国通用等汽车公司已经研究如何尽可能少使用稀土元素。而美国、俄罗斯和澳
大利亚都在计画开发新矿。

英国地质调查局负责人布拉德沃斯说,�长期以来,中国采用低成本分离稀土矿石,使
得中国稀土价格不断下降,造成其他国家的稀土企业纷纷倒闭,随着许多高科技产品对
稀土的需求越来越大。�他认为,只要新开发两个新的稀土矿,就能改变依赖于中国的
局面。

《华尔街日报》也报导说,五角大楼新近提交给国会的一份报告表示,美国应开辟中国
以外的稀土供应源。报告显示,五角大楼已开始着手找出哪些美国公司有可能会将稀土
氧化物加工成稀土金属,并研究了如果稀土供应中断会造成哪些风险。

印度新德里政策研究中心教授布拉马.切拉尼也在《金融时报》撰稿指出,中国将稀土
资源的垄断当成一种贸易手段,并阻止解决南中国海争端的多边努力,这已引起了国际
社会的警觉。而中国谋求把水资源作为一种政治武器的做法,令邻国深感忧虑。

中国在2008年已经采取限制稀土产量、以操纵价格的措施。此外,在中国2010年跟日本
陷入领土纠纷时,还曾经停止对日本出口稀土,把稀土作为一种政治外交手段。

耐人寻味的是,日本大约 83%稀土来自中国,但日本并不急于使用,而是将这些足够使
用20 年的资源贮存在海底,作为未来能源战略的规划。

不过,1997―2010年间,中国稀土资源储量占全球总储量的比重已从43%降到30%。按
照目前的开采速度,只能维持15―20年。

而,中国对稀土的控制在国内也遇到巨大的阻力。

据《中国青年报》报导,由于稀土开采涉及到利益,�禁采�会直接面对地方政府的阻
力。很多地区的地方经济已经形成了对稀土生产、特别是对稀土出口的依赖。国家对稀
土产量和出口量的控制,将直接影响地方经济利益,同时还有来自稀土企业的阻力。

据调查,在过去10多年里,中国稀土企业只是出口初级产品,不但利润非常低,开采稀
土所付出的环境成本极为高昂。据介绍,普遍采用的草酸这种池浸工艺,每开采1吨稀
土就要破坏200平方米的地表植被,剥离300平方米的地表土层,产生2000立方米尾矿。
目前开采稀土一吨赚几十万,未来花在环境污染治理上的可能要几千万。

The Suspension of Rare Earth Production From China Causes International
Concerns

Rare earth minerals are crucial in manufacturing manymodern technological
products.Currently, China produces 95% of the world'srare earth minerals.In
recent months, the price of rare earthsdropped by around 20%.To raise the
market price, the largest two rare earthproducers in China have announced
the suspension of production, which causeddissatisfaction in many countries.

The former leader of the CCP government, Deng Xiaoping,said in 1992, "China
could produce rare earth minerals, just as the Middle Eastproduces
oil."Following his words, China has since quickly developed itsrare earth
production.

However, the recent rare earth industry recession hascaused many Chinese
producers to halt business.

On Oct 19th, the largest rare earth producer in China,Inner Mongolia Baotou
Steel Rare-Earth (Group),announced it would suspend production for one
month.Following Oct 25th, another rare earth giant in southern
China,Minerals Ganzhou Rare Earth, also announced suspension ofproduction
for 3 to 5 months.

The UK-based newspaper, Financial Times,wrote an article stating thatthe
CCP government's regulation of rare earth production,has caused turbulence
in the global rare earth market.

The VOA Chinese website reported on Oct 26th that manycountries are trying
to countermeasure China's control over rare earth materials.For example,
Toyota and General Motors are carrying outresearch on reduction of rare
earth elements usage as muchas possible, and The United States, Russia and
Australia areplanning to develop alternative rare earth mines.

Andrew Bloodworth, Head of Science Minerals & Waste atBritish Geological
Survey stated, "For a long time, Chinesecompanies have separated rare earth
elementsfrom minerals at a relatively low cost.This continuously reduces
the price for Chinese rare earthproducers, resulting in the widespread
closure of foreign producers.On the other hand, the market demand is also
increasing,since rare earths are necessary in making more and more
high-tech products."Bloodworth believes that if as few as two new
minesoutside China could be developed,the current dependence on Chineserare
earth producers would be greatly relaxed.

The Wall Street Journal also reported that the Pentagonrecently submitted a
report to Congress suggesting thatthe United States should develop rare
earth sourcesoutside China.The report reveals that the Pentagon has already
begun toresearch companies which could possibly separate rare earth
elements from theiroxides.Studies are underway regarding the possible risk
of suspensionfrom rare earths sources.

Brahma Chellaney, Professor of New Delhi-based Centre forPolicy Research,
wrote in Financial Times that China regardsits monopoly on rare earth
materials as a trade weapon,which has played an important role in
inhibiting any solution to South China Seadisputes despite multilateral
efforts.Similarly, the CCP government also tries to use waterresources as a
political weapon.Such behavior patterns have worried its neighbors and
drawnthe awareness of the international society.

In 2008, the CCP government once restricted its productionof rare earths to
control prices in the global market.It also halted rare earth export to
Japan when territorialconflicts between two countries broke out in
2010.Clearly, the CCP aims to take advantage of its monopoly onrare earths
in politics and foreign affairs.

An intriguing fact is that though 83% of Japan's rare earthsare imported
from China, the government of Japan hasdeposited these resources in the
seabed for future use,rather than deplete supplies immediately.As part of
future natural resources strategy planning, thesedeposits could support
20-year usage in Japan.

However, the reserve ratio of rare earths in China hasdecreased from 43% to
30% between 1997 and 2010.At the current rate, the resources would be
depleted in15 to 20 years.

At the same time, the CCP government also encountersdomestic resistance
when it tries to control the production of rare earthmaterials.

The China Youth Daily reported that since huge benefits areinvolved in the
rare earth industry,the central government will face resistance ofrare
earth production from local governments..Local economics usually greatly
depend onproduction of rare earths, especially the export of these
materials.Therefore national control of rare earth export would causedirect
hazard to local economics and rare earth companies themselves.

According to an investigation, in the past 10 years,the Chinese rare earth
industry is only exporting primary productswith poor profits due to very
high environmental costs.For example, under the widely used techniques in
Chinawhich use oxalic acid to erode the earth, 200-square-meter vegetation
would bedestroyed,a 300-square-meter soil layer would be stripped,and
2000-cubic-meter tailing materials would be generated to produce only one
tonof rare earth materials.For each dollar of economic benefits, hundreds
of dollarsmay be spent to deal with environmental problems in the future.

【禁闻】美国民众抛弃高福利共产主义

【新唐人2011年10月29日讯】10月27号晚,俄勒冈波特兰独立民间机构――U-CHOOSE在波
特兰大学又一次向社会召开研讨会,来自社会各界的民众表示,高福利、高税收是美国社
会问题的根源。

U-ChOOSE 成立于2008年,据主席Debra Mervyn介绍,U- CHOOSE有上千成员,她表
示,很多美国人还不知道社会问题产生的原因。

Dedra:�今年我们的讨论焦点集中在马克思主义者,我们看到这个国家的人的根源是人
们不了解到底发生了什么,.那就是马克思主义,共产主义。那是与我们的自由共和国建
立时的原则完全相反的,我们根本不是马克思主义者。我研究了很多的历史它给人带来
的影响。人们应当了解共产主义对大众, 个人, 国家,经济带来的负面影响。�

哥伦比亚大学博士Chana B. Cox女士是路易斯和克拉克学院(Lewis and Clark
College)的高级讲师,她着有《上帝给人类的恩赐》God'sGift to Humanity,《良好的
逻辑思考》Reflections on the Logic of the Good 等多部著作。

Chana B.Cox:�只有魔鬼能保持住这个系统,它们们需要精神病院,它们需要秘密警
察,他们需要死亡集中营,他们为了使人恐惧维护这个系统,最后使价格变得悲剧性的
昂贵,不管以前许诺了什么,共产主义已经成为现实。�

盲人听众Joseph先生表示,他享受政府的福利实际上来自大家的税收,其实是共产主
义,他决定第二天搬出福利公寓。

Joseph:�我要从你、你、你……那里拿,每个有工作的人都要付,就因为你有工作你要
为每个没有工作的人付帐……就因为我是个残障人,我就可以坐在家里永远坐享其成,就
因为我有这个权利,是吗?那是?那是?�

在场学生不清楚,为什么社会会变成这样,与会者提出邪恶轴心学说,中共将中国人当
作奴隶,用廉价的劳动力吸收国外资产,再用这些钱在国内迫害好人,在国外阻止国际
社会关心中国人权。

来自大陆的法轮功学员刘女士,讲述了她家四代遭到共产党迫害,却由于从小被共产党
洗脑,直到自己也被严重迫害,才相信法轮功真相传单内容。

刘女士:�监狱长揪起我的长发,把我摔倒在地,用两根警棍疯狂的打我,用电棍电我,直
到我再也不能动弹,这个时候我明白了,大法弟子就是被这样迫害死的,才相信真相传单
上的死亡案例。�

Ethan Epstein是 �华尔街日报��标准周刊�和英文�大纪元�等多家报纸的记者和
作家,长期从事大陆和台湾文化制度对比研究。他表示,台湾和大陆同是中国人,但差异
很大,大陆人因为长期受共产党控制,比较好斗而不关心他人。

Ethan Epstein:�台湾比中国大陆的人要富裕五六倍,实际上在台湾,以前也是独裁,但
不是共产主义的独裁。直到1987年,形成另一个独立政党,造成了改变,问题是目前在中
国没有人能真正成立另一个政党。�

刘女士呼吁人们不要被共产党的谎言欺骗,不要像她那样迫害落到自己头上才相信共产
党的残暴。

Debra Mervyn:�最糟糕的是中共掩盖着,世界上其他的人们不知道发生了什么,除非你
自己去研究它。当人权问题,迫害这样发生的情况下,美国中共的生意关系密切,这是不
对的。�

与会者表示不学习历史,不了解共产国家以前发生了什么,为什么发生,如果不注意的
话,以前发生的可能再发生。

U.S. Civilians Abandon Communism

On October 27, U-CHOOSE Organization held a seminarin Portland, Oregon,
attendees said that high welfare andhigh taxes are the root of the social
problems in the U.S.

U-CHOOSE, a NGO organization, was established in 2008,The Chairman, Debra
Mervyn, said that U-CHOOSE hasover one thousand members, many of whom are
Americanswho didn't realise the causes of social problems.

Senior Lecturer Dr. Chana Cox at Lewis and Clark Collegealso earned a
doctorate from Columbia University,and is the author of the publications
Liberty,God's Gift to Humanity,Reflections on the Logic of the Good and
other books.She expressed her opinion.

Blind audience member Joseph understoodthat the benefits he enjoys actually
come from government taxes,this in fact is communism,he decided to move out
of the council house.

The audience wasn't clear how communism had turned out ,the attendees
raised the issue of the axis of evil doctrine,the CCP (Chinese Communist
Party) treats people as slaves,achieves the absorption of foreign assets
with cheap labour,using this money to persecute good people andpreventing
the overseas society's concern aboutChina's human rights.

Falun Gong Practitioner, Ms Liu from mainland China,told us that four
generations in her familyhad been persecuted by CCP.The CCP had brainwashed
her since childhood,she believes the true story on the Falun Gong flyers,
as sheherself has been severely persecuted.

Reporter and writer, Ethan Epstein, whoworks for a number of newspapers,
has completed long-term studies ofthe contrast between culture systems of
Mainland China and Taiwan.He stated that both Taiwan and Mainland people
are Chinese, but thatunder the control of the CCP, Mainland Chinese are
more aggressiveand care less about others.

Ms Liu calls on people not to be deceived by the CCP's lies,andnot to wait
like she did, until she became a victim of the persecution,afterwhichshe
was able to recognise the brutal character of the CCP.

The audience said that, without having learned from history,they didn't
know what had happened in communist countries,orwhy it had happened, and
that the same things could happen again ifnobody paid any attention to it.

【禁闻】陆军警训练 对付访民 机密视频泄漏

【新唐人2011年10月29日讯】中国百姓到底有没有人权?�中国武警部队针对访民处理
训练�的视频被不经意泄漏出来之后,中国访民了解自己面对的是一个什么处境,那就
是中共�将访民当敌人、敷衍后镇压�。有关人士认为,在中国,警察、武警部队早已
是政府官员行使权利的工具,中国百姓没有人权可言。下面请看本台记者报导。

名为《武警部队参谋长集训演示科目》的视频,全场约27分钟,是一次内部集训用的演
示片。讲的是武警部队参谋长模拟训练哨兵的工作要领。

要领包括:加强部署及对单个上访人员拦车的方式处置;以及如何对付群体性上访人员
的情况处置。

�请问你在这有什么事情吗?有啊!我想找部长给我解决问题,上这边讲话。此时,领
导乘坐车驶出大门,上访人员突然掏出横幅,冲向车辆。拦!警卫人员迅速夺下横
幅,副哨协助控制上访人员......�

中国冤民大同盟总干事张兆林表示,警察、武警是政府官员行使权利的工具。

张兆林:�就是靠警察在治理这个国家,你看我们国家为什么到现在这个劳动教养还不
取消呢,很简单的道理,就是一个警察、公安局就可以判你这个人,限制你这个人的自
由,不是说10天、15天,甚至1年、2年、3年都可以的。就是我们国家把权力已经下放
到警察哪里了,都把权力下放了。就是说,这个很明显就是说我们国家的老百姓肯定是
没有人权的,就是我们国家的人权状况不能好,就是这个道理。�

张兆林指出,政府不让老百姓的诉求得到应有的合法权益,老百姓肯定要抗议,要维
权,那么政府就要动用警察,训练警察来镇压老百姓。所以,很多访民都被劳动教
养,有的甚至关到精神病医院里面。

今年10月10号,长沙拆迁访民,因拆迁问题,不断上访,问题在没有得到解决的情况
下,21位访民同时遭地方政府劳教,部分访民家属失去生活保障。

上海冤民邵满根:�他们这样利用高压手段来,就是要访民要怕他们,因为他们不让讲
心里话,其实我们访民有好多心里话要讲的,都是实质的问题。但是他们就是要通过这
样的事情,来要我们老百姓不要动政治,不要去反抗他们。要做一个顺民、良民。他们
要想怎么样就怎么样。0042―0046他们不是说一个人对付你一个人,他们有可能是株连
九族的啦。�

邵满根指出,由于中共的历次运动,中国好多老百姓也怕,心有顾忌,面临着精神和生
活的双重压力,致使好多问题不敢讲。邵满根形容,中国老百姓现在是无奈,而中共是
无赖,中国目前正在走向悲哀的边缘。

10月15号,中共十七届六中全会在北京召开,全国各地大批访民陆续前往北京,希望能
够向当局反映冤情。但是,当局派出大批警察,沿途设卡,对行人严加盘查,搜出上访
材料,强行抓走。送往专门羁押访民的�久敬庄�。访民反映,当天至少有30辆装满访
民的公交车开到�久敬庄�。

浙江民主人士邹巍:�在现实当中,(中共当局)动用包括是警察、武警对付老百姓
呢,实际上已经不是新鲜的事情了。特别是动用对付老百姓上访。�

邹巍表示,武力是不应该用来对付老百姓的诉求的,中共不断的这样做了,最终会产生
爆炸性的局面。但最后肯定是和平民主战胜暴力。

Police Training on Dealing with Petitioners

Do Chinese people have human rights?

A video of China's Armed Police Force TrainingOn How To Deal With
Petitioners wasinadvertently leaked to the public,which helped Chinese
petitionersunderstand what they are up against.That is, the Chinese
Communist Party (CCP)treats petitioners as enemies, and represses
them.Chinese people believe that police andarmed forces have become the
main tools used by govt. officialsto enforce the laws they enact,and thus
the Chinese people have no human rights at all.

The 27-minute video, China's Armed Police Force TrainingOn How To Deal With
Petitioners, is an internal training video.in which the chief of the armed
forcesdemonstrates the essentials of guard training.

The essentials include: strengthening deployment,methods of dealing with
individual petitioners' blocked cars,and how to deal with groups of
petitioners."Do you have any business to take care, here?""Yes! I'm looking
for ministers to solve a problem for me.I've come here to speak
out."Leaders in the car didn't ask to stopped them,but petitioners suddenly
took out a banner,and rushed to the vehicle.Stop that! Leaders said.
Security personnel snatched the banner,and deputy guard helps to control
the petitioners.

Zhang Zhaolin, director of the Chinese Petitioners Alliance,said the police
and armed forces are power tools of the CCP.

Zhang Zhaolin: "The CCP relies on the police tocontrol the country.

Why doesn't our country abolish forced labor camps?

It is very simple, police and public security bureau agentscan use the
labor camps to sentence you and limit your freedom.Not just for 10 days or
15 days, but maybe for 1 to 3 years.

In our country, the power has been given to the police.

It is obvious that our people have no human rights.The human rights
situation in our country is not goodand this is the reason."

Zhang Zhaolin said the CCP regime won't allow ordinary peopleto have
legitimate aspirations because if they were allowed,people would definitely
protest when their rights were violated.However, the regime uses the
police, and specially train policeto suppress the Chinese people.Therefore,
many petitioners were sent to forced labor camps,and some were even sent to
psychiatric hospitals.

On October 10, petitioner Changsha constantly petitionedagainst unlawful
demolitions by the state.As a result, 21 petitioners were sentenced to
forced labor campsby the local government, without having their issues
resolved.and some petitioners' family members could not make a living.

Shao Mangen, a Shanghai petitioner: "They exerteda lot of pressure on the
petitioners so that they would be afraid.Petitioners are concerned about
many critical issues but the CCPwarns people not to be involved in
politics,and not to resist the CCP, but instead be docileand innocent
civilians.The CCP can do whatever it wants to do.They not only punish you,
but also your whole clan."

Shao Mangen pointed out that due to the CCP's previous campaigns,a lot of
people are afraid, but they are clever, too.They do not dare to speak out
about the problems they are facing.

Shao described the Chinese people as "helpless."

He described the CCP as a "rogue regime," and said that Chinais moving
toward the edge of sorrow.

On October 15, the Sixth Plenary Session of the CCPwas held in Beijing
where a large number of petitioners gathered,hoping to make voice their
grievances to the authorities.However, the authorities sent a large number
of police there,set up checkpoints along the way,and strictly questioned
pedestrians.If they found petition materials on anyone,they would forcibly
take them awayand send them to a special detention center in
Jiujingzhuang.At least 30 buses full of petitioners were sent there.

Zou Wei, a Zhejiang democrat: "In reality, Chinese authoritiesuse of police
and armed police to deal with people,is not a new thing, especially in
regard to petitioners."

Zou Wei said that force should not be used against peoplewho are voicing
their demands, but the CCP continues to do so.This will eventually produce
an extremely volatile situation.But in the end, peace and democracy will
prevail over violence.

【禁闻】中国的法律体系 能保障人民自由?

【新唐人2011年10月29日讯】近来中国大陆民怨沸腾,盲人维权人士陈光诚夫妇被当局
暴力殴打消息流出;武警部队针对访民的演练视频也被曝光,中国人权遭到中共国家机
器的践踏、法律被用作权力的工具。正当此时,中共国务院新闻办公室发表《中国特色
社会主义法律体系》白皮书,白皮书声称中国的法律制度能够最好的保障中国公民的权
利。下面请看中国律师的看法:

白皮书指出,中国依法保障公民的生存权和发展权,公民的人身权、财产权和宗教信仰
自由、言论出版自由、集会结社自由、游行示威自由以及社会保障权、受教育权等经
济、政治、社会、文化权利得到切实维护。

中国维权律师唐荆陵:�这个就是很清楚的,在中国这些基本自由,可以讲都没有得到
保障,当然像这个国经办他自己做为说谎机构,一个职业说谎的机构,他们历来是在这
方面说谎的,他们也不是第一次这样做了,发布类似这种的谎言,他也不是第一次了。


中国近来社会事件频发,山东维权人士陈光诚被非法软禁甚至暴力殴打,广东两岁小女
孩被车子碾过后,得不到路人的救助,公民的生存权和发展权不被保障;而北京当局强
力镇压、骚扰和拘禁参与�茉莉花革命�人士,人民没有集会结社和游行示威的自
由;另外,广电总局大幅度限制卫星频道的娱乐节目播出量,言论出版自由遭限制;上
海讨房团的维权活动仍在继续,人民财产权被政府抢夺。

中国维权律师唐荆陵:�有大量的法轮功或者其他宗教信仰者被关押的事实,这是一直
存在的,而且像最近的话,基督教的家庭教会也受到很残酷的打压,这个事情也都在国
内已经传的很广了,不要说是在国际社会了,他这个(白皮书)完全是说谎的。�

唐荆陵说,中共所谓宗教自由是指:他们所控制的教会才可以公开举行宗教仪式。

中国维权律师唐荆陵:�但是显然就是说,不是这样子,首先你如果不接受共产党的
话,不接受无神论的信仰,你就不可能有宗教信仰,因为在我们这里,他宪法里面规定
无神论的信仰,是高过一切宗教信仰的,有这样一个基本内容在的话,你要讲有宗教信
仰自由那是不可能的。�

白皮书还指出,反对西方的政治和法律概念,不会采用西方三权分立的做法。

对此唐荆陵表示,中共既然有所谓的完善社会主义法律体系,为什么有那么多的官
员,他们的子女都加入了西方国家的国籍,他们的财产也都放在西方国家。

中国维权律师唐荆陵:�所以他们都已经用他们的钱用他们的子女都做出投票了,用他
们自己的脚都做出投票了,就像以前耶稣基督曾经说过,你的财宝在哪里你的心就在哪
里,他们的子女他们的财宝都在美国、在欧洲,不是在他们所主张的朝鲜那里,他怎么
能说他们的心在中国呢,怎么能说这个法律制度很好呢,能提供保障呢,他们为什么不
待在一个他们自己认为能够给他们提供保障的地方,就要去一个他们绝对反对的地方
呢,所以这个是很荒谬的,这样的笑话我想是没有人能够相信的。�

长期以来中国社会矛盾多元突出,面对错综复杂的社会矛盾,中共如何以一党专政的法
律解决这些问题?《新唐人》将持续追踪报导。

Can CCP's Legal System Protect People?

Recently, in China, discontentment among people is high.

The exposure of the authorities' assault and battery onblind activist Chen
Guangcheng and wife, as well as theexposure of the armed forces' training
videos targetingpetitioners are just a few reasons why.China's human rights
have been trampled on by Chinese state apparatus.China's law has been used
as a tool of power.Meanwhile, the CCP's State Council Information Office
issuedthe White Paper "The Socialist System of Laws with Chinese
Characteristics." Thepaper claimed that China's legal system can best
protectthe rights of Chinese citizens.Chinese lawyers have different views.

The White Paper claims according to the laws, Beijing protectsthe rights of
the citizens, including Subsistence Right,Development Right, Personal
Right, Property Right, Freedom of Religion, Freedomof Speech, Freedom of
Assembly and Association,Freedom of Demonstration, Social Security Right,
and Education Right.Thus, the citizens' economic, political, social, and
culturalrights have been effectively maintained.

Chinese human rights lawyer Tang Jingling said, "It isvery clear that in
China these basic rights are not protected.Of course, as the state agency
itself is a professional liars'organization, they have grown accustomed to
lying in many aspects.It's not their first time to issue this kind of lie"

Recently, China's social incidents are frequent.

Shandong human rights activist Chen Guangcheng wasbeaten violently and
placed under house arrest.A little girl from Guangdong was run over by two
cars andeighteen people turned a blind eye.Chinese citizens' Subsistence
and Development Right hasnot been protected.Beijing authorities strongly
repressed, harassed and detained thepeople who took part in the "Jasmine
Revolution," showing thatpeople don't have Freedom of Assembly and
Association andFreedom of Demonstration.Moreover, the SARFT(State
Administration of Radio Film andTelevision) drastically limits the amount
of entertainmentprograms broadcasted by satellite channels.Freedom of
Speech has been restricted.

Shanghai's activists for protecting housing rights continue tofight as
people's Property Rights are snatched by the government.

Chinese human rights lawyer Tang Jingling said, "In fact, alarge number of
Falun Gong practitioners and other religiousbelievers are imprisoned.Those
things have happened.

Recently, the Christian house churches have also beensuppressed
brutally.Those things are widespread in China, not to mention in the
internationalcommunities.The CCP's White Paper is totally a lie."

Tang Jingling said that the CCP's so-called Freedom of Religion means:
underCCP's controls, the churches can hold ceremonies in public.

Chinese human rights lawyer Tang Jingling said, "But obviously,it's not
like that.First of all, if you do not accept the CCP and do not
acceptatheism, you can not believe in other religions.Because here in China
the constitution orders that atheism ishigher than any other religion, it's
impossible to talk aboutFreedom of Religion based on this."

The White Paper also points out the anti-Western political andlegal
concepts and that it is against Western ways ofseparationof the executive,
legislative and judicial powers.

For this, Tang Jingling questioned why, when the CCP has the
so-calledperfect socialism law system, do so many officials and
theirchildren join Western countries' nationalities and send theirproperty
to those countries.

Chinese human rights lawyer Tang Jingling stated,"So they have used their
money, their children, and their ownfeet to make a vote.Just as Jesus once
said, 'where your treasure is where your heart belongs.' Theirchildren and
treasure are in the US and Europe, but not in North Korea, wherethey stand
for (the government there).Why don't they stay in the place where they say
they could getprotection; instead, they go the places where they are
absolutelyagainst?Thus it's really ridiculous.I think no one would believe
this kind of joke."

The multiple contradictions in Chinese society have long been prominent.

Facing the complex social conflicts, how can one-partydictatorship CCP use
law to solve these problems?NTD will continue reporting on this.

上海一家在几天前被砸的售楼处10月25号深夜11点开盘,引来市民排队抢购。据介
绍,这次开盘共400套,开盘房价由原来的每平米23500元直降6000元。与此同时,在得
知深夜选房的消息后,老业主们也动身前往售楼处取证。

在此之前,上海多个大型开发商突然大幅减价促销楼盘,楼价急跌近1/3,使许多业主
高价买进的房产瞬间缩水几十万。

上百名业主在嘉定区的�秋霞坊�售楼处抗议,他们的横幅上写着:�抵制无良开发商
��黑心�、�还我血汗钱�等。

房屋代理屈敏女士:�他们辛辛苦苦赚了钱买房子,才买没多久,一下子跌那么多,心
里肯定是不舒服的了。�

中国大陆这一波楼市降价退房潮在几个月前就开始了,至今已经逐渐蔓延到整个大陆。

5月,�首开股份�旗下的北京"常青藤"最新开盘的楼盘,通过折扣等优惠措施暗降10%以
上。6月底,位于江苏淮安的�恒大名都�,突然从均价5300左右直接降到每平方米
3900元起。7月初,济南�大盘鲁能领秀城�继一周前推出限时特价房后,再推200多套
88折特价房。8月初,通州楼盘�华业东方玫瑰�推出60套特价房,和优惠前每平方米
16500元相比,降幅达到10%以上。

继去年年底疯狂降价7000元之后,通州�京贸国际城�再降6000元,这让上千户老业主一
夜之间蒸发百万。上个月底,毗邻上海的江苏太仓市楼盘�景瑞荣御蓝湾�,原价每平
方米8500元的楼盘,直降23%,降幅高达每平米2000元。

中共当局此前出台了一系列包括限制购买第二套住房、提高购房首付金额,以及在一些
城市试点征收物业税等措施。楼市的需求量也随着这些措施的出台呈现出下降的趋势。

与此同时,北京政府为了抑制通货膨胀,上调利率并收紧贷款发放,也都造成房地产开
发商面临资金周转难的问题。

目前,汹涌的楼市降价潮席卷整个大陆,导致更多人持币观望。美国南卡罗来纳大学艾
肯商学院教授谢田认为,交易量降低会使房地产公司的资金链断裂,会有更多人为求资
金回笼继续降价,直到房产泡沫完全破灭。

谢田:�中国卖的房子是毛坯房,在国外看来,都是不能住人的,只是一个空架子,自
己还得装修,在美国或其他社会,你今天买的房子,上午签约下午就可以搬进去,所以
最后降得很可能就是一个建筑的成本,我们可以想见涉及更大的银行的破产,因为大量
银行的钱都卷入押在房地产里面。�

谢田认为,中共当局用虚假的基建建设数字顶替GDP发展,造成虚假的经济繁荣,而这
个虚假的经济繁荣推动了房地产市场,老百姓的钱也被全部榨干净。

谢田表示,民众的存款不要进入房产市场,最好兑换为硬通货,因为中国经济本身就是
一个泡沫,一旦破灭,人民币也会大幅贬值。

A tide of house returns in China, home owners smash sales offices

Anchor:Since September, house prices in some cities ofmainland China have
gone down significantly.Those who bought their houses early are now very
unhappywith the instant shrinkage in the value of their properties.They
have collectively denounced the developers,seeking to return their houses
or seek compensation.They have smashed the sales offices of housing agent's
firms.

Reporter:The sales office of a housing company in Shanghai,which was
smashed a few days ago, carried out an opening in the evening of
Oct25th .It attracted some buyers.It was said that there were 400 sets of
apartments on offer.The opening price went down by RMB6000 fromthe original
RMB23500 per square meter.Meanwhile, upon hearing the news ofbuyers
choosing apartments late at night,the previous buyers also came to the
sales officesin order to collect evidence.

Prior to this, some large housing companies in Shanghaisuddenly cut prices
for house-sale promotions.The housing price plummeted by nearly one third.

This made the value of many original owners' apartmentsshrink by hundreds
of thousand RMB within moments.

The owners protested in front of Qiu-Xia Fang sales officein Jiading
District.Written on their banners are "Boycott unscrupulous
developers,""Black Heart", "Return my hard-earned money" and so on.

Ms. Qu Min, a house agent, said:"They worked hard to make money to buy the
house.Not long after their purchase, the price has fallen so muchthey
definitely feel uncomfortable."

The tide of returning houses with falling prices happeneda few months ago
in mainland China.It has been gradually spreading to the entire country.

In May, the newly opened real estate ofShoukai Share's Chang Qingteng in
Beijing potentially cut price by over 10%through discounts and other
incentives.

At the end of June, the apartment price ofHengdaMingdu real estate in
Huai'an, Jiangsu suddenlydropped from RMB5300 per square meter on
averagedirectly to RMB3900 as a starting point.In early July, one week
after releasing time-limited apartmentswith a special price, real estate of
Dapan Luneng Lingxiu Chengreleased 200 sets of apartments with a discount
price of 12%.In early August, the real estate development ofHuaye Dongfang
Meigui in Tongzhou released 60 sets ofapartments at a special price.The
price before discount was RMB16500,and the cut was more than 10%.

Following a price cut of RMB7000 at the end of last year,the real estate
development of Jingmao Guojicheng in Tongzhou cut the price againby RMB6000.

This made the previous owners lose 1 million RMB overnight.At the end of
last month, the real estate development ofJingrui Rongyu Lanwan near
Shanghai,with an original price RMB8500 per square meter,cut the price
immediately by 23%,with a discount of RMB2000 per square meter.

The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) regime previouslyreleased a series of
measures, including restriction onthe purchase of a second
apartment,raising the initial payment deposit when buying a house,the levy
of property taxes in some cities and so on.The house demand showed a
downward trend withthe release of these measures.

At the same time, in order to curb inflation,the Beijing government raised
interest rates and tightened the release of loans.This made the real estate
developersface difficult cash flow issues.

Currently, the surging tide of falling house priceis sweeping the whole
country.It has lead to many people's holding onto their money andwaiting
rather than buying.Xie Tian, a professor from the Business School ofSouth
Carolina Aiken University in America,believes that the reduction of
transactions will breakthe housing developers' money chain,and more and
more companies will reduce the house price torecover funds, until the
housing bubble completely bursts.

Xie Tian: "The houses sold in China are rough.In the view of foreigners,
it's not habitable, just an empty frame.It needs renovating.

In America or in other societies, if you buy a house today,when you sign
the contract in the morning, you can move in it in the afternoon.So in the
end, it's very likely to drop to the cost of building.We can imagine that
there will be bankruptcy of many ofthe large banks involved, because a lot
of bank money is involved in real estate."

Xie believes that the CCP authorities take false figures ofinfrastructure
construction to replace the development of GDP.This results in a false
prosperity in the economy.

This false economic prosperity promotes the housing market,and citizen's
money is also squeezed out.

Xie also believes that it's better for the citizens not toput their
deposits into the housing market.The best idea would be to convert into
their money intohard currency, because China's economy itself is a bubble,
and once bursting, theRMB will also be significantly devalued.

【禁闻】浙抗税民众指武警打死人 当局否认

【新唐人2011年10月29日讯】浙江爆发抗议政府加税的群体性事件,湖州市织里镇一名
安徽籍女厂商,遭到税收官员暴打,激起民愤,引发上万人围堵政府机关,爆发严重的
警民流血冲突,民众砸毁数百车辆、焚烧警车。当地居民指证有多人被打死,当局则公
开否认,并抓捕了28人,调集大批军警进驻。

湖州市吴兴区织里镇是全国最大的儿童服装生产基地,全镇三分之二是外来人口,多数
加工作坊是安徽人办的。当地政府今年只对外地人疯狂加税,征收金额比去年激增一
倍。

10月26号,一名安徽籍童装城女厂商,拒绝在加税一倍的文件上签字,遭到多名税收官
员毒打,随后有5人被捕。数百名业主和员工前往镇政府门口要求放人,再次遭到警察
殴打,引发上万人上街游行。

织里镇一童装厂业主张先生表示,民间传织里镇镇长声称,安徽人就是我们的奴隶,这
句话激怒了安徽人。

织里镇居民周先生28号指出,官民长期矛盾造成的积怨是事件的主因。

周先生:�真正矛盾的原因应该是平时积累起来的,是民怨的爆发,无非昨天这个事件
是个导火线而已。其实,真正加入的远远不止安

愤怒的民众砸毁政府车辆,一辆奥迪车逃串时,当场撞飞了十几人,导致事态激化,更
多的民众砸车�愤,焚烧警车,大量武警强行驱散人群。

27号抗税冲突升级,数千民众游行前往政府大楼,他们高呼�安徽人联合起来�的口
号,掀翻砸毁至少500辆车,并焚烧20多辆警车,与武警爆发流血冲突,有武警大
喊:�抵抗者当场击毙。�

当晚织里镇戒严,当局从外地增调数千武警特警,并从南京军区调来大量军车部队。全
镇已停课,店铺关门,上街需携带身份证。

周先生:�武警在用警棍打人的过程当中,是有人被打死的,这是可靠的消息,应该
是,据我所知是可靠的消息。打死的肯定是抗议的人嘛,肯定是那些安徽的人,那是被
那些武警打死的。�

《中国茉莉花革命》网站引述安徽民工的话说,两天共死了十几人,死者绝大部分是安
徽人,也有警员被烧死、打死。织里镇居民谭先生也这么说。

谭先生:�有十几人被打死了吧,然后昨天下午的时候又有1、2个人,应该都是民
众,好像讲有一个是武警。�

据《博讯网》消息,抗税事件造成100人受伤、8人死亡。香港《苹果日报》引述织里镇
居民王先生的的话说,打死了好几个人。香港《人权民运信息中心》的消息说有两人死
亡。

织里镇一童装厂安徽籍业者28号也向《新唐人》证实,有民众和警察被打死。

织里镇安徽籍业者:�打死一个警察,两个伤了,而且,暴乱的也打死几个,民众也有
啊,那暴乱的也有死的,那警察车都被烧了。�

湖州市吴兴区政府发布声明否认有人死亡,只承认奥迪车造成10人住院治疗。《新华社
》报导,目前事态基本得到控制,织里镇政府已暂停税收征收,事件相关的税收员已被
解聘。

《21世纪网》总编辑助理周斌指出,纵观各地政策,常是向底层横征暴敛,补贴金字塔
顶端,这种劫贫济富的财税政策,只能称之为�弱智政策�。

湖州市异议人士范子良:�中国的财政那么重,主要是养的吃�饭的人太多了,他的工
资从哪里开支呢?只有从老百姓头上刮。从表面上看起来平息了,但是从心里面平
息,要彻底改变制度,如果由老百姓投票选举的话,你不会这样对待老百姓了。�

《福布斯》�税负痛苦指数�排行榜,中国位居全球第二,难怪有网友讥讽�共产党万
税�。安徽籍学者叶匡政指出,湖州织里抗税事件只是一个讯号,表明民众已不堪高额
税负,极有可能成蔓延之势。

China's High Tax Burdens Unbearable

Anchor:A mass incident broke out in Zhejiang province whenthe local
authorities hiked taxes on factory owners.A factory owner of Anhui domicile
was beaten by tax officers,sparking public fury and thousands of people
surroundedlocal authorities' office building, triggering a severe
bloodyclash with armed police.Civilians smashed cars and burned police cars.

Local residents confirmed that many people were killed.The local
authorities denied the news, arrested 28 people,and mobilized massive
military police forces.

Reporter:Zhili Town of Wuxing District in Huzhou City is the
largestproduction base of childrens clothing.Two-thirds of the town's
population are migrants from otherplaces in China.Most workshops are owned
by Anhui people.

This year, the local authorities only hiked taxes on migrants.The levied
amount surged, doubling last year's figure.

On October 26th, a manufacturer of Anhui domicilerefused to sign on the
document that doubled taxes.She was beaten by several tax officials, and
afterwards,five people were arrested.Hundreds of owners and employees went
to the townauthorities demanding release of detainees, but were beaten
again by the police.The incident caused tens of thousands of people totake
their demonstration onto the street.

Mr. Zhang, a factory owner, said that the town mayor claimed,"Anhui people
are our slaves."The remarks incited Anhui migrants' fury.

On October 28th, local resident Mr. Zhou said that long-term
hostilitycaused by conflicts between officials and the public is the root
cause.

Mr. Zhou: "The root cause of the conflicts deepened day by day.It is just
an outbreak of the masses' discontent, fused by the incident.In fact,
besides the Anhui people, participants also includedmigrants from various
places.The majority are Anhui people."

Angry masses smashed local authorities' vehicles.

An Audi car hit and knocked down over a dozen peoplewhen it fled, making
the situation tense.More people got involved in car smashing tovent their
resentment.Police cars were burned.Massive armed police forcibly dispersed
the crowd.

The clash escalated on October 27th, when thousands ofcivilians marched
towards the authorities' building.They shouted "Anhui people unite
together", destroyed andoverturned at least 500 cars, and burned over 20
police cars.A bloody conflict ensued with armed police.Armed police
shouted, "Resisters will be shot on the spot."

That evening, a curfew was imposed on Zhili Town.Thousands of armed police
and ranger police weredispatched from other places to reinforce the local
force.A large number of military vehicles weremobilized from the Nanjing
Military Region.Schools are closed town-wide.Shops are shut.People who go
out should carry their ID card.

Mr. Zhou: "Someone was beaten to death by the armedpolice with batons.The
news is reliable, as far as I know.The deceased are certainly those who
protested, definitelythose Anhui people who were killed by armed police."

Molihua.org quoted a migrant worker from Anhui, as sayingthat over a dozen
people were killed within two days.Most of them are Anhui people, but there
are policemenwho died from burning or beatings.Local resident Mr. Tan said
that again.

Mr. Tan: "Over a dozen people were killed.Yesterday afternoon, one or two
more were killed.

All the deaths should be civilians, but sources saythat it seems one of
them is an armed police."

Boxun.com reported that the tax resistance incidentinjured 100 people, and
caused eight deaths.Hong Kong's Apple Dailyquoted local resident Mr. Wangas
saying that several people were killed.Hong Kong-based Information center
forHuman Rights & Democracy said that two people died.

On October 28th, an Anhui factory owner in Zhili Townconfirmed to NTD that
civilians and policeman were killed.

An Anhui factory owner: "A policeman was killed, two injured.A few rioters
were killed as well as civilians.The police cars were burned."

Wuxing District authorities issued a statementdenying any death in the
conflict.The claims said that the Audi car caused 10 people to be
hospitalized.According to Xinhua News Agency reports, currentlythe
situation is basically stabilized.Zhili Town authorities have suspended tax
collection, and dismissedconcerned tax staff.

Zhou Bin, assistant Chief Editor, pointed out thatafter reviewing the
policies all across China, it iscommonplace to extort excessive taxes and
leviesfrom civilians to subsidize the top of the pyramid.Such a policy of
robbing the poor to benefit the richcan only be labeled as a "mentally
retarded policy."

Fan Ziliang (Huzhou-based dissident): "China's publicfinance expenditure is
so large, mainly because too manyuseless mouths were fed by the
authorities.Where does his salary come from?Only at the expense of
civilians.It is seemingly quiet.

But for the real inner quiet,there needs a thoroughchange of the
institution.If it were elected by the masses, it will nottreat civilians in
that way. "

On the Forbes Tax Misery Index, China ranked second.No wonder a netizen
satirized online, saying,"The CCP ten thousand taxes" (sounds similar toten
thousand years in Chinese).Anhui-based scholar Ye Kuangzheng, believed that
Huzhoutax resistance incident is only a signal warning thatcivilians cannot
further bear high tax burdens,the situation is very likely to spread.

【禁闻】中国一胎政策少生4亿人?遭抨击

【禁闻】中国一胎政策少生4亿人?遭抨击

【新唐人2011年10月29日讯】联合国人口基金会公布,全球人口10月底将达70亿。中共
媒体说,由于中国计划生育政策的努力,少生了4亿人,使得世界70亿人口日的到达推
迟了5年时间,不过专家认为:中国的独生子女政策是对基本人权的一种侵害,也是经济
灾难。

联合国人口基金会在2011年世界人口状况报告指出,到10月31号,世界人口将会达到
70亿。新华社的报导声称,中国实行计划生育30多年来少生4亿人,使世界70亿人口日
推迟5年到来。

深圳当代社会观察研究所所长刘开明博士指出,计划生育造成的社会问题危害更大。

刘开明:�中国以人口多为藉口强制实行一胎化的政策,我觉得只看到了人口对资源的
消耗,没有看到人口对社会发展的贡献,对财富创造的贡献。强制性计划生育它的危害
已经显现出来,国家还没富裕,老龄化已经非常的突出,现在劳动力短缺的问题已经凸
现出来。社会保障体系没有建立起来,养老的问题,包括未来婚姻的问题,都会成为很
严重的社会问题,都会对未来社会稳定构成大的冲击。�

美国鼓励人口生育的研究机构�人口政策研究所�,所长毛思迪(StevenMosher)说:�
我相信中国共产党通过独生子女政策可能使中国的人口减少了4亿,那些没出生的人也
包括那些在3个月、6个月或者是9个月的时候被堕掉的婴儿,以及在出生后被杀死的婴
儿,还包括那些因为妇女在堕胎后做绝育手术失去生育能力而避免生出来的人。�

毛思迪表示,美国人口政策研究所统计表明,中国生出来的每个婴儿对国民生产总值的
贡献比他们的消耗多出几千美元。他认为,�中国人口中每减少一个会使中国更穷一
点,而消灭掉4亿全世界最勤劳、最智慧和最有效率的人使得中国更穷。�

毛思迪指出,尽管全球人口增加到70亿,但是人类的繁荣程度增加得更快,人们的平均
寿命、生活水平、食品的供应和医疗保健水平都比以前大大提高了。

刘开明:�要求只生一个孩子而且对超生挺严厉的处罚,都有背人口生长的这种自然规
律。很多人因为违反计划生育政策,他的家庭的财产被强制没收,他的银行存款被强制
划走,都是对基本人权的一种侵害,特别是对一些已经大龄的妇女强制引产,倒致了很
多悲剧。应该是通过完善社会保障,鼓励人们有计划的生育,而不是一种粗暴简单的办
法来强制人们只生一个孩子。�

美国人权组织�女权无疆界�的创办人瑞洁(ReggieLittlejohn)律师认为,中国的计
划生育政策是赤裸裸的人权践踏:�强行堕胎、杀死新生儿等种种手段,证明中国政府
就是想完全控制民众。�

瑞洁要求中国政府停止强制堕胎的野蛮手段,尊重女性权利,尊重公民权利。
