Overseas Chinese Democracy Groups Hold International Conference "Great Changes in China" in Copenhagen, Denmark

-- by Radio Free Asia, August 16, 2012

 

 

A number of overseas pro-democracy groups will be holding an international conference "Great Changes in China" in Copenhagen, Denmark, from August 18 to 19.  Wei Jingsheng and Pan Qing, who came from the United States and Australia, and other overseas democracy activists and scholars from various countries in Europe will be participating this conference.

 

As the overseas media focus on the possible development of Gu Kailai's trial and Bo Xilai's case, as well as how the Chinese Communist Party will hold its 18th Congress, this reporter has learned that a major conference "Great Changes in China", is being held this weekend on the 18th and 19th in Copenhagen, Denmark.  This conference was initiated by Wei Jingsheng, the famous dissident from modern China.  The RFA reporter interviewed Mr. Wang Guoxing of Netherlands, who is the chairman of the Chinese Democratic Front.  Wang is in charge of preparing this conference.  Regarding the conference, Wang introduces: "This conference was organized by the Overseas Chinese Democracy Coalition and the Chinese Democratic Front.  The chair of the Overseas Chinese Democracy Coalition is Mr. Wei Jingsheng.  I am the person in charge of its preparation."

 

Regarding the purpose and content of the conference, Mr. Wang Guoxing said: "The purpose of our conference is due to a series of things happening in China this year which affect all of us.  First was the case of Wang Lijun and Bo Xilai in Chongqing, then there was Chen Guangcheng who broke out from confinement and fled China.  More recently were the events related to Li Wangyang, and the cases of Qidong and Shifang.  From this series of events, we can see that a variety of changes will happen in China during the power transfer of the Chinese Communist Party."

 

Mr. Wang Guoxing said: "These phenomena are showing that the authoritarian China has been undergoing comprehensive and fundamental changes from the bottom to top, from inside of China to overseas.  Currently, there are various human rights abuses in China, resulting in continuous mass unrests.  The harsh realities of social conflict, ethnic conflict, ruler conflict, and environmental catastrophe have become increasingly prominent.  All of these events compose a systemic crisis due to the one-party dictatorship, which has already become a major obstacle for China in developing a sustainable future.  Thus we wanted to call for this conference to have some experts and scholars from the United States and Europe come together to adjust and strengthen the democratic forces overseas so as to contribute to a democratic future in China."

 

Regarding who will attend the meeting, Mr. Wang Guoxing said,  "We have invited a lot of people to come.  Some who will be here are Mr. Wei Jingsheng; Dilshat Rexit, the spokesman of the World Uighur Congress, Dr. Qian Yuejun from Germany, Dr. Zhang Yu of Chinese Pen, and Mr. Pan Qing from far away Australia.  In Denmark, we have the local leader of our Chinese Democratic Front, Dr. Liu Gang, and Mr. Zhang Guoting, who has done a lot of Internet campaigns.  We also have Mr. Liu Hao from Sweden.  They all have done a lot of work to prepare for the conference."

 

The above is a report by Tian Yi, a special correspondent of Radio Free Asia from Germany.

海外民运团体将在哥本哈根召开《变化的中国》 国际研讨会(自由亚洲电台报道)

2012-08-16

 

 

多个海外民运团体八月十八号到十九号将在欧洲丹麦哥本哈根召开《变化的中国》国际研讨会。魏京生、潘晴等来自美国、澳大利亚,以及欧洲各国的海外民运人士、学者将参加这个会议。

 

正当海内外媒体聚焦于谷开来的审判、薄熙来事件可能发展的结果,中国共产党十八大如何召开等问题的时候,记者获悉,由当代中国著名的异议人 士魏京生发起的一个大型研讨会《变化的中国》,本周末,十八号、十九号将会在丹麦的哥本哈根举行。为此,十六号记者采访了负责筹备研讨会的在荷兰的民阵主 席王国兴先生。关于这个会议,王国兴先生介绍说,"发起这个会议的组织是'中国民主化运动海外联席会议'以及'民主中国阵线'这两个组织。联席会议的主席 是魏京生先生,我是会议的负责筹备的人。"

 

关于会议的宗旨和内容,王国兴先生介绍说,"我们这个会议的宗旨就是,鉴于今年,二零一二年 以来中国国内出现了一系列各种牵动人心的事情,先是重庆王立军、薄熙来事件,然后又有陈光诚突破封锁,逃离中国,直到最近又有李旺阳事件,启东和什邡事 件。从这一系列事件看到中国十八大权力交接前后中国会出现各种各样的变化。"

 

王国兴先生说,这些现象已经显示出,专制中国从底层和顶 端、从国内和海外,都发生了全面的根本的变化。"现在中国各种人权迫害,以及由此引发的群体事件此起彼伏。社会矛盾,民族矛盾,还有统治者的危机以及环境 的灾难,严酷性日益凸显。也就是由一党独裁造成的制度性的危机。已经成为中国将来是否能够持续性发展的一个很主要的障碍。所以我们想召集会议,请欧洲和美 国的一些专家和学者就中国现在民主化的前途重新汇集和调整一下海外的民主化的力量。"

 

关于有哪些人会出席此次会议,王国兴先生介绍说, "我们邀请了很多人,能够来的人主要有魏京生先生,世界维吾尔族大会的发言人迪里夏提先生,德国的钱跃君先生,还有笔会的张裕先生,远道从澳大利亚来的潘 晴先生,丹麦当地的主要是我们民阵在当地的负责人刘刚先生,在网上搞了很多宣传工作的张国亭先生,还有瑞典的刘浩先生。他们都为会议的筹备做了很多工 作。"

 

以上是自由亚洲电台特约记者天溢由德国发来的报道。
