History Repeats Itself In China

Few thousands years ago, the Chinese in China were subjected to cruel treatments by officials of feudal system. They were beaten, cheated , raped or forced to be slaves by the corrupt officials. They had no means to get their redress. So many of them went to the imperial capital to lodge complaints about the ill treatments they received. But the corrupt officers prevented them from doing so. They bribed their "big brothers" in the capital to turn down the appeals made by the peasants. The poor peasants lost their appeals. Not only that , they were jailed, beaten and even sentenced to death.

Today, the same thing happens in China. Many peasants and ordinary people who are bullied by the local officers go to Beijing to lodge a complaint of ill treatments they get from the local officers.But instead of listening to the complaints , the officials in Beijing put them in psychiatric wards, inject some medcines into their bodies and force them to sign an agreement that they would not complain again in order for them to be released. This is a sad thing.The world must condemn this type of cruel thing happening in China.
