【禁聞】兩會前 民間吶喊聲四起

【新唐人2012年3月1日訊】中共的「兩會」將於3月初在北京召開,北京官方一貫的嚴厲維穩措施,早已不再是新聞;兩會上那些作秀的所謂議題,也早已不再為民眾所關心。不過,兩會前夕,依然有民間人士通過不同方式發出自己的聲音。

2月29號,代表「六四」事件死難者家屬的「天安門母親」群體,在《中國人權網》上發表公開信,要求政府「公開、公正」解決六四問題。信中說:「二十二年前的那場六四屠殺,致使數以千計的家庭失去了親人,數以萬計的民眾致傷、致殘,是中國百年來和平時期發生的最殘忍的暴行。」 她們要求「政治問題法律解決」。

同一天,大陸維權律師劉曉原再次在社交網絡上發文,呼籲人大代表們公開聯繫方式。他說,按照《代表法》第七條規定,代表在出席本級人民代表大會會議前,應當聽取人民群眾的意見和建議,為會議期間執行代表職務做好準備。設想一下,代表們連聯繫方式都不公開,那些被他們所代表的人民又該如何來反映意見和建議?

除了書面呼籲表達意見外,還有更多的人選擇以行動表達訴求。大陸近期頻頻傳出罷工、罷課消息。

在北方,除了連續兩天的北京出租車司機罷工,緊鄰北京的河北也傳出了五千多教師罷課的消息。

2月27號,河北保定高碑店市的中小學老師共五千多名,全部罷課,抗議工資太低和被長期剋扣。罷課教師在「致廣大學生家長的一封信」中表示,他們現在「真的是走投無路了。」信中還提出8點訴求,教師們表示,若得不到正面回應,他們將會不斷抗爭,甚至遊行、上訪等。 28號,罷課已經漫延到了鄉鎮的中小學。

與此同時,南方的東莞也出現超過千人的罷工。

2月28號下午,東莞大嶺山鎮「臺升傢俱公司」有超過千人的員工,因為不滿假期工資被扣,發起罷工抗議。據了解,「臺升傢俱」是全球知名的傢俱製造商,約有員工2千人。2010年2月,也曾發生過數千員工停產要求加薪事件。

Citizens Protest Before The National People's Congress

The Chinese Communist Party』s (CCP) "Two Meetings"

will start in early March in Beijing.

Before the meetings, the authority which is normally strict

on maintaining so–called "stability" is not surprised by people anymore.

People disregard the meetings' proposals, which are

like a showcase.

However, before the meeting, activists speak out via

various channels.

On Feb.29, Tiananmen Mothers, who represent victims

of the Tiananmen massacre of June 4, 1989, posted an

open letter on Human Rights in China online , calling for

the authorities to "openly and fairly" resolve the June 4 issue.

A letter said, "The massacre that happened 22 years ago,

caused thousands of families to lose their loved ones.

Tens of thousands of people were injured and

many were disabled.

It was the most brutal atrocity of the past century in China."

Mothers urge the "legal settlement of political issues."

On the same day, human rights lawyer Liu Xiaoyuan

posted an article on the internet.

He urged National Congress representatives to publicise their

contact details.

He said that according to Article 7 of the Representative Act,

before attending congress, they should listen to people's

comments and suggestions.

This is the appropriate preparation for the meeting and

fulfils their role obligations.

Without publication of contact details, how can a

constituency make comments and suggestions?

Instead of writing, many express their views by direct action.

Such as workers going on strike, schools being closed,

such news items come out one after another.

In the North, Beijing taxi drivers have protested for two days,

Sources said that 5000 teachers went on strike in Hebei.

On Feb.27, over 5000 teachers in Gaobeidian of Baoding,

Hebei Province, protested against low wages and embezzlement of wages .

They wrote an open letter to all the parents, which said that

they are all "really desperate".

In the Letter they mentioned 8 issues, they said that if they

didn』t get positive answers, they would continue to protest to demonstrate and to petition.

On Feb.28, town and county secondary school teachers

joined in the protest.

Meanwhile, In the South, in Dongguan there are also

several thousand people protesting.

On the afternoon of Feb.28, over 1000 workers of the

Taisheng furniture factory in Dalingshan, Dongguan were on strike due to their wages being withheld.

Sources said, this furniture company is well-known in the

world, having 2000 employees.

A similar protest happened in Feb, 2010, when this factory

stopped operating , and workers demanded a pay rise.
