Chinese Defector Reveals Officials' Desire to Quit the Communist Party--UPDATED Back

Hong Kong—On the evening of Oct. 22, a technology official from Shanxi Province left his tour group upon arriving in Taiwan and sought political asylum. Four days later, he was deported and arrived in Hong Kong. He brings with him news of widespread discontent among Chinese Communist Party (CCP) officials and hopes for a democratic China.

Mr. Jia Jia is the Secretary General of the Science and Technology Experts Association of Shanxi. In an interview with The Epoch Times, he said that the primary purpose of his trip to Taiwan was to sever all ties with the CCP.

Jia added that while many CCP officials and Chinese people condemn and curse the CCP, they also fear it. He said, "Today I would like to be a model by severing ties with and quitting the CCP in public. I would also like to urge all the Chinese officials to quit the CCP using their real names. I would like to quit the CCP in public on behalf of a large number of members of the Science and Technology Experts' Association of Shanxi."

Jia emphasized, "If everyone quits the CCP in public, there will be no place for the CCP any longer. I want to be a model for people."

Jia told The Epoch Times that he has ways to overcome the CCP's Internet blockade, and so has been able to read a lot of overseas news, including news about the movement to quit the CCP and The Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party — The Epoch Times' uncensored history of the CCP that has inspired the withdrawals from the Party.

He said, "I am in charge of many experts. Every day I work with many high-level CCP cadres. Each and every CCP cadre lives in fear every day."

He added that many Party officials have been secretly passing among themselves the "Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party," and discussing the explosive movement in China to quit the CCP. Jia said jokingly that, if the Chinese people are allowed to quit the CCP freely and safely, two days later the only CCP member to remain would be Hu Jintao, China's paramount leader.

Jia will have a press conference on the afternoon of Oct. 27 (Hong Kong time). He intends to explain how government officials and the public in China condemn the CCP's tyranny and to discuss the movement in China to quit the CCP and his own declaration quitting the CCP. He wants to urge more CCP officials to quit the CCP and establish a new Chinese democratic government. He also hopes to express in public the unified wish of those members of the Science and Technology Experts' Association of Shanxi who wish to quit the CCP. Back

According to the fourth report by the Shanghai Working Group of Central Commission for Discipline Inspection submitted to the Central Government —"The Investigation in Shanghai"—high ranking officials of Shanghai municipal, district, bureau, and county levels opened 1322 bank accounts under pseudonyms and aliases. The total amount of money is 98.6 billion yuan (about US$12 billion). Chen Liangyu, former Shanghai City CCP Party Secretary, has 53 anonymous accounts, which have a total of nearly 300 million yuan (about US$ 35 million). It is reported that Chen is also very dissolute and immoral and has a total of eleven mistresses.

The Fourth Report of "The Investigation in Shanghai"

On September 26, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)'s central government transferred 260 people into Shanghai from the Central Committee of Political and Legislative Affairs, the Supreme People's Procuratorate, the Central Military Commission for Discipline Inspection, the Commission for Discipline Inspection of China's Central Bank, and the General Staff Protection Bureau.

On September 29, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection's Shanghai working group handed in the fourth report of "The Investigation in Shanghai" to the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CCP and Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the CCP.

Shanghai High Ranking Officials' Anonymous Accounts Hold Nearly 100 Billion Yuan

The fourth report pointed out that they have already investigated and frozen suspected anonymous bank accounts of spouses and close relatives of officials of different levels of Shanghai, the officials of the public security bureau, and officials of the political and legislative organizations. These bank accounts were opened in the local Bank of China, Industry and Commercial Bank of China, China Construction Bank, China Agriculture Bank, China Transportation Bank, Shanghai Pudong Development Bank, China Citic Bank, to name just a few. There are 1322 clandestine bank accounts (including 355 foreign currency accounts), with a total deposit of 98.643 billion yuan (about US$ 12 billion).

This report pointed out that from September 1990, when Chen was appointed as Vice CCP Party Secretary of the Huangpo District of Shanghai City, to October 2002, there were 523 letters reporting Chen's corruption and extravagance, his predilection for colleagues who violate the law, and his actions of obtaining illegal benefits for his relatives, and other corrupt acts.

CCP's Sixth Plenary Session Is Full of Pessimism Back

The Sixth Plenary Session of the Sixteenth Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) ended on October 11. This year's meetings centered on the objective of "building a harmonious society." The opinions expressed and proposals submitted reflected pessimism and disappointments of the delegates in attendance. Representatives at the meeting listed a total of 579 issues and internal problems that currently hinder their objective.

'Resistance Rises To The Level Of Demanding Changes In Political Power

Many representatives were pessimistic during discussions surrounding "new" ideas for resolving China's internal problems. Several delegates were ready to fight when discussions grew heated. The following lists some of the discussion points:
- After 20 years of economic reforms the economy has moved forward. During this same 20 years, the foundation on which to build a stable social system and society has essentially disintegrated.
- The CCP claims as its foundation the worker and peasant classes. In reality, the worker and peasant classes are at the bottom of Chinese society. They bear the heaviest burden with respect to earning a living and have gained the least from recent economic reforms. The tendency toward dissent from these two classes is quite obvious.
- The Chinese version of a socialist society has failed.
- A capitalist style privileged class has established itself at the top of the new economic system of China. This new upper class controls the government and makes the decisions that determine China's future direction. This increasing dichotomy between rich and poor has caused conflicts among social classes and turbulence in society as a whole.
- Worker and peasant classes are demanding a change in political leadership as resistance against the new social order increases.
- Cadres of the CCP have betrayed the social basis for their rule, the original objectives of CCP rule, the ideology of CCP membership, and their own responsibilities and missions.
- The CCP is at a critical turning point with respect to future directions.

'Five Black Classes' Survivor Denounces the CCP Back

Unjustly Labeled as "Counter-Revolutionary" — I want to use my personal experiences to detail how the CCP persecuted my whole family physically and mentally. The mental damage can never be erased and is beyond description in any language.

When the CCP launched the "Three Anti Campaign and Five Anti Campaign," and my father was condemned for his "reactionary history," he served a two-year sentence at home and two years under police surveillance. My family was defamed as "puppet officials," labeled as "counter-revolutionary" and held in contempt by people.

In 1957 the CCP launched an anti-rightist campaign. The evil party started by consulting the non-party member intellectuals, which included my father, about possible reforms. In reality, it was intended to eliminate political dissidents labeled as anti-party or rightists.

I will never forget October 8, 1958. On that afternoon when I arrived home from school, and my father was taken away. All our relatives and friends distanced themselves from us.

Mother swept streets for 10 years after father was gone. My mother started the most difficult times of her life with five kids. She asked her friend to help her find a job at the Sanitation Bureau as a street sweeper because there was a little more grain ration.

The people from mainland China can all remember the year 1960. The CCP deceived people by calling the three years of the Great Famine as "Three Years of Natural Disaster." We survived by eating tree leaves and picking edible wild herbs.

The Cultural Revolution became more and more intense. Mother burned all of our books. Because of the CCP's category theory, we were not allowed to go to college, even though we passed the tests. Nobody dared to marry us. I eventually agreed to marry a worker.

In 1969, the CCP claimed the cities were too crowded. Since we were "anti-revolutionary," and my mother and my brother couldn't work, she was too old and he was too young, my family had to move to the countryside and became peasants.

In 1973, we suddenly received the release notice of my father. It was great news for our entire family. He was released due to his failing medical condition, he had been imprisoned for 15 years. I did not recognize him. He died in 1976.

The evil CCP not only persecuted our physical bodies, but devastated our spirits as well. It has deprived us of dignity, self-esteem, and youth, and thrown us to the very bottom of society. Just like what was said in the Nine Commentaries, it is an evil specter. We must disintegrate it completely. I believe that one day, it will be brought to justice in the trial of history, and this day is not far off! Back

'I Witnessed the Massacre in Tibet'

COPENHAGEN—Pierre Maina sat in a restaurant at Copenhagen Airport. He gently fiddled with his coffee cup as he searched for the words to describe his Tibet trip. "We went to Tibet on August 27 and retuned to Denmark on October 12. This was my first time going to China and joining a mountain climbing tour in Tibet," said Maina.

Forty-seven-year-old Maina is the doctor in charge of surgery at the Slagelse Sygehus Hospital in Denmark, as well as a member of the Mountaineering Association. They planned to climb Cho Oyu Mountain in Tibet, which has an elevation of 8,000 meters. According to Maina, this mountaineering trip left an indelible mark on his psyche.

"On Saturday morning, September 30, I was sleeping in the tent and suddenly was woken up by the sounds of shooting. At first I didn't realize that the sounds were gunshots. The first thing I saw is that some 50 meters from our tent, some Tibetans tried to run fast, and they all seemed like children. Many Chinese soldiers began shooting at them. I saw the person at the very front of this group shot and fall down," Maina recalled.

Maina didn't know what happened at that time, so he walked to another tent of the encampment. It appeared that a group of Tibetans was trying to across the border to go to India to find their spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama, for shelter. In order to stop them, the Chinese border guards shot them.

Maina, after witnessing the shooting was shocked. "At that time I could not comprehend what had happened. Everything just seemed so unbelievable."

After his return to Denmark, Maina saw on TV that the Chinese regime claimed that the incident was one of self-defense, ostensibly because Chinese soldiers were under attack. "But, the Romanian Sergiu Matei who was with me at the time was a photographer for a Romanian TV company. He photographed the whole shooting event. A Danish TV station purchased that video and it was broadcasted on TV2 and DR. These videos tell the full story on how the crime was committed, and disprove the Chinese government's claim of so-called 'self-defense by the border security,'" said Maina.

"Everybody can view the video clip on the web at www.mounteverest.net or www.protv.ro/filme/exclusive-footage-of-chinese-soldiers-shooting-at-tibetan-pilgrims.html," Pierre suggested.

Maina didn't hesitate and chose to tell his own experience to the public. He said, "The West still doesn't know what is happening in China. People must know the truth. If I can do a little bit, I will do it." After Maina exposed the shooting, not only did he obtain encouragement and support from his wife, but many supportive messages from friends. "I have heard many people discussing whether to boycott 2008 Olympic games in Beijing." Back

Man Sues Chinese Hospitals for Tricking and Killing His Mother Back

Tongji University Affiliated Shanghai East Hospital
Chinese media has recently been widely reporting about a prominent medical malpractice lawsuit. According to the reports, doctors from hospitals in Shanghai and Zhenjiang, in Jiangsu province, convinced healthy people to accept joint heart and lung transplantation surgeries so that surgeons could practice their skills.

Southern Metropolitan News claimed Huang Ling, the son of deceased Chen Fengying, filed the litigation. Huang accuses two hospitals of deceiving his mother by offering a free operation, and performing an organ transplant on a person who did not need it so that the surgeon could learn transplantation techniques.

The doctor in charge assured Huang that his mother's operation was 100 percent safe and that the success rate was 98 percent guaranteed. Huang said that before the operation, a woman named Xu Xiaoping convinced Chen that she had received a successful heart and lung transplant. Huang later discovered that Xu had been incorrectly diagnosed with cardiopulmonary disease and was then offered heart and lung transplant surgery for free. She was left unable to work and the hospital was thus paying her to entice other transplant patients.

On September 25, Huang received a phone call from the First People's Hospital telling him that his mother had died. Chen was 49.

Huang raised several questions in the lawsuit about the way his mother had been treated: Was it necessary for her to have a cardiopulmonary transplant? Was donor tissue matching performed prior to the transplant? Were the two hospitals in question equipped to perform transplants? Had Hospital President Liu Zhongmin ever performed transplant surgery before? In March 2003, Liu claimed that Mrs Chen would not live more than three months if the transplants were not performed, but the operation did not occur until September 2003. How could she have lived for six months without the transplants?

Huang requested that the court conduct a judicial evaluation of Liu's diagnosis and the decision to perform the heart and lung transplants. Huang also requested that the hospital provide the donor tissue typing results, but the hospital refused to comply.
Huang, who had published his mother's experience on many popular Chinese Websites, said that after the first court hearing, the Shanghai East Hospital was prepared to settle the case out of court by paying 80,000 yuan (approximately US$10,000). Huang said he rejected the offer because he wanted to discover the truth and to stop hospitals from harming other patients. The case is still in progress. Back
