Foreign Correspondets Club of China on Haraassment of Reporters in Tibetan Areas

I am quite sure that the Chinese government has authority to do whatever they have done to journalists and their assistance anywhere in China. And, in China, having the authority means it is right, appropriate, ethical, moral and for the best of the Chinese people, if not the world.

Interesting, I do believe the Chinese government has the right to detain someone if she/he is considered to be doing something harmful and stuff. These reporters are on the Chinese soil after all.

Any other government would have done similarly I suppose. The only difference is maybe there's no such self-important "club" forcing that government to do this and that...Or, even if such club or organization do exist, TIME won't be that hyper-energetically reporting over such trivial incidents.

One more "five-jaio"!

Simon, thanks for what you are doing for Chinese people! Anyway, fighting the communism is the toughest task and the biggest duty of the whole human beings. Keep going! and all Chinese people will remember your efforts!

Insane!
Fighting communism is the toughest task and biggest duty of the entire human being?
Who the hell are you?
Why could some believe in capitalism (and I am one of them, to be clear) and others should not be prohibitted from believing in communism?
Is that what you CC believe what democracy is supposed to be?
Is that what you CC believe what freedome is supposed to be?
Get out!
And try to think (if possible) ... certainly with brain not toe ... before coming back!

Correction:

I tend to agree with the statement ... provided that the reporters behave professionally and report without bias.

One would have been afraid of a well rope for ten years if he was bit by a snake one day ... Our ancesters told us.

And if a snake happens to be a poisonous one, then he may not have the opportunity to be afraid.

畜生!!又跳出来了!!没人想看你在吠什么! 能看懂你的话,如同人能听懂狗语!!

大刀向五毛头上砍去!!

Hack the "five-jiaos"!!

Maybe a dozen of "five-jiao"'s usernames is just registered by one or perhaps a couple of guys wearing different coats, isn't it? That's not impossible! Such trick is often applied by the five-jiao to aggrandize their sounds.

That's the problem, johnsmith - the officials are mislead by Beijing to believe that cracking down and blacking out media is a good thing for China, when in fact it makes China look barely-more-advanced than Burma or North Korea. Irreparable damage has been done to China's reputation by this ridiculous, paranoid, old-fashioned approach to "embarrassing situations."

"I do believe the Chinese government has the right to detain someone if she/he is considered to be doing something harmful and stuff. These reporters are on the Chinese soil after all.

But there are countries that are stupid enough to required good reasons to detain, and must release after 24 hours if not charged with a crime and have court permission to continue the detention. And these governments will face public outcry from their own citizens if these detentions were not justified. China is much more clever than these backward and stupid countries.

"That's the problem, johnsmith - the officials are mislead by Beijing to believe that cracking down and blacking out media is a good thing for China, when in fact it makes China look barely-more-advanced than Burma or North Korea."

You are so wrong. 1.3 billion people would disagree with you. They will all think that this is a great move by the Chinese government, and think that any government not following the example of the Chinese government as stupid and crazy. And having a government that can ignore other peoples' right give Chinese face, and enhance their ego. And since the Chinese government only need to look good before Chinese people, this is a perfect system.

You've finally found a reason for your hoursly barking to every trees. You know what? In a dog's eyes, all human being look the same. lol!

The livestock "laohong":

You are the most idiotic one among all the five-jiaos(Wumaos, 五毛党). Why? Do you know the Chinese idiom "there's no silver but 300 lian(此地无银三百两)"? You admitted your identity so hurriedly and directly so that every one can look through you by just a glimpse. So, what have you barked here is meaningless. We are wondering whether you can get your jiao from your master.
