The Overseas Chinese Democracy Coalition Presents a Briefing to the UN on the

Worsening Human Rights Condition in China

 

 

On the afternoon of April 11, 2005 during the 61st UN Human Rights Commission sessions, the Overseas Chinese Democracy Coalition presented a briefing on the worsening human rights condition in China in the United Nations' Palais des Nations' room XXVII in Geneva, Switzerland.  The briefing lasted for two hours.  It was sponsored by the Transnational Radical Party, and introduced by its delegation leader, Ms. Marina Szikora.

 

The briefing was moderated by Ms. HUANG Ciping, the Secretary-General of the Overseas Chinese Democracy Coalition, with final remarks and statement made by Mr. WEI Jingsheng, Chairman of the Overseas Chinese Democracy Coalition.  Over a dozen Overseas Chinese Democracy Coalition members attended the briefing in support of the others who gave the presentations.

 

The highlights of the briefing were the two leading witnesses on human rights abuse tragedies conducted by the Chinese government.  One was Ms. XIA Ze, who spoke on behalf of the June 4 victims and families.  Ms. XIA Ze's cousin, WANG Nan, was shot to death on June 4, 1989 while he was merely a teenage.  Yet, after more than 15 years, the Chinese government still continues its persecutions, while Chinese people are still seeking justice.

 

The other witness was Ms. FANG Xiaosheng.  Due to different political viewpoints, she was repeatedly sent to prisons and even to psychic hospitals, despite being a French citizen.  Putting people in psychic hospitals has been a widespread practice of the Chinese government for use against religious believers and political dissidents, including June 4 1989 democracy movement supporters.  However, unlike most of the others who might be stuck in the psychic hospital forever, Ms. FANG was one of the very few who came out and became able to tell of her experience there.

 

Dr. ZHANG Yu, director for the Writers in Prison Committee from the Independent Chinese Pen, gave a theme talk on "China - a country having no free speech; a country having no free press".  Mr. Enver Can, the vice president of the World Uyghur Congress, spoke of continued violations of human rights and discrimination of the Uyghurs in China.  Mr. ZHANG Jian, a student leader and survivor of the June 4, 1989 massacre, presented horrific and graphic evidences detailing Chinese persecution against religious believers and their families, as well as cruelty against unborn and newborn children.  Dr. CHEN Shizhong, detailed the situation of many millions Chinese forced into internal displacement in China.

 

Several news media, including TV, radio stations and newspapers reported this briefing.  Radio Radicale of the Transnational Party recorded the whole two hours long session.  (Its website is: www.radicalparty.org.)  Several people were interviewed afterwards.  Other handouts including materials and booklets related to the Chinese government's suppression of human rights and Chinese democratic progress were distributed to the participants and audience as well.

中国民主运动海外联席会议在联合国内举行有关中国人权的报告会

 

 

2005411日下午,中国民主运动海外联席会议在正在召开的联合国第61届人权年会的联合国大厦内举行有关中国人权报告会。报告会由跨国界激进党支持,其代表团团长玛丽娜斯蔻拉女士(Ms. Marina Szikora)作介绍。

 

这场报告会由中国民主运动海外联席会议秘书长黄慈萍女士主持。由中国民主运动海外联席会议主席魏京生先生做结语。十多位中国民主运动海外联席会议成员亦与会。

 

报告会的两位证人最为引人注目。一位是代表六四难属的夏泽女士。她的年仅十九岁的表弟王楠在198964日凌晨遇害。十五年过去了,中共的迫害还在继续,但也压制不了要求公正的声音。

 

另一位证人是因持不同政见而被中共关押多次乃至被无辜关押于精神病医院的法国公民方晓声女士。尽管中共以精神病院来变相迫害持异议者及宗教信仰者是人人皆知的事实,然而,方女士却是少有的几位幸以逃离苦海并能亲身叙述其不幸遭遇的活证人。

 

报告会上还有:

中国独立作家笔会的张钰博士做有关中国缺乏言论与新闻自由的报告;

维吾尔世界大会的肯先生谈中共对维吾尔人民犯下的罪行;

1989民运中的学生领袖张健以活生生的图片,数据与案例展示中共对宗教人士的迫害;及

陈师众博士有关中国政府所造成的数以千万计民众流离失所的现况。

 

报告会还散发了其它的有关中国的人权状况及民主进程的资料。包括电台,电视,报纸在内的多家媒体报道了计时两小时的报告会,并在其后进行了更多的采访。
