Olympic torch in town 10:30am on 19 Jun 2008 I watch BBC World News day by day. James is one of my favourite reports on BBC. It is quite difficult to criticize China while living in China. Because all journalists are heavily forced to write positive(pro-Chinese Government) articles on Chinese iuuses, including controversial Olympic.

But I am really against Beijing olympic on the basis of human rights and freedom. Why does China hold Olympic? Olympic Games can't be more important to ordinary people's everyday lives and liberty. China still oppresses Tibet and other minorities in China. Why must international community look forward to celebrating their torch relay?

On the other hand, Chinese human rights violations are without doubt severe. Not a few organs of death penalty prisoners have been on sale at black market. Even the perprtrator who killed a tiger was executed in China. This kind of accident cannot be imagined in Holland.
