Time for a democratic China

By Chin Jin - posted Thursday, 28 May 2009


As long as Chinese communist despotism continues to exist, it will continue to be the cause of more human rights tragedies in the China, in Taiwan and Tibet, and will pose potential threats to peace in the Asia Pacific region.

We believe that the world should become acutely aware of this alarming crisis and pay more attention to how they respond to China with regards to the long term global implications.

It is impossible for China, a super-nation, to experience a systematic transition to a democratic society without the aid and participation of the broader international community. The fate of China is more and more intertwined with the rest of the world in this rapidly developing contemporary globalisation.

Therefore, China’s future represents a massive influence on the future of mankind, changing China is changing the world, and the key to this process is the promotion and awareness of the priorities of the Chinese democratic movement.

It is essential for the Chinese democratic movement, the Free Tibet movement, democratic Taiwan and all forces of justice, liberty and democracy in the rest of the world to co-operate sincerely and effectively, to form a robust political alliance to restrain the global expansion of the Communist China. It is crucial for international society to realise that only by supporting and accelerating China’s democratisation and promoting its political reform can the situation of China be changed to improve global peace and stability.

We expect that in the near future, that is, around the 100th anniversary of the Revolution of 1911, China, the land which has endured under communism, will have a democratic and federated new China. Perhaps a new historical chapter is to be initiated here. Chinese history and world history will be written by our generation. Only if China changes from insulation to openness, autocracy to democracy, will the future world be secure and peaceful.
