A Partial Record of Wei Jingsheng's Awards and Honors

 

 

In this Thanksgiving season, we list a partial record of awards and honors Mr. Wei Jingsheng has received, both from the Chinese community and the International society.  We want to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to people and organizations who have been supportive to Mr. Wei and our foundation, for as Mr. Wei always said, he took these honors and awards as if they were given to all the Chinese people who took the courage and sacrifice to fight for human rights and democracy.

 

In case that you have noticed that we failed to list some award and honor to Mr. Wei Jingsheng, please let me know.  I could be reached at: hcp@WeiJingSheng.org and HCP0411WJS@aol.com.
