Fearing their loss of power and control over peoples lives, China Communist thinkers are warning Beijing to nail down the runaway growth of the Internet otherwise it could destroy the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) control over the great nation.

These sentiments reflect CCP fears about the possible impact of peoples rebellion seen in Arab countries where Twitter & Facebook played key rolls.

After news spread in China last week that Beijing would be closing and demolishing a number of Migrant Schools, many Chinese expressed anger at the inequalities  facing migrant families.

On the 17 August, I wrote here China abandons more than 5,000 migrant school children providing them with no place to go.

That same day, QQ.com hosted an online chat (Chinese) with well known Chinese Academy of Social Sciences Professor Yu Jianrong, providing China Netizens and opportunity to express their views and ask Yu, about his views on education, property demolition and migrant’s rights.

The interview here in English, presents an interesting illustration of how Internet portals, which are prevented under China Regime Regulations from news reporting, employ other means topics of interest to their audience.

A 10 year old girl calling herself “Helpless Yuan Yuan” pleading for justice subsequent to her father’s suspicious death while in Police custody, reverberated among China Netizens earlier this month, drawing tens of thousands of sympathetic responses.

The young girl posted an online message Sunday afternoon 14 August,  asking readers to forward her message chronicling  her father’s journey from a wildlife reserve to the morgue and to pressure authorities into revealing the details surrounding his death.

On the 05 May, I wrote here that China Police detained female petitioner Xu Jincui, ripping off her clothes in front of her children, leaving her naked during her visit to the State Bureau of Letters and Calls.

“On the morning of the 12 August, Huang Guohui accidentally trespassed  onto the Datian Nature Reserve in Hainan Province,” Helpless Yuan Yuan wrote, “After a quarrel , he was taken to a police station, two hours later he died in the interrogation room, covered with wounds.”

Helpless Yuan Yuan post immediately stirred strong concern from other Netizens and her message was reposted by more than 200,000 users but just a few hours later, her blog account and its messages were deleted  in a likely act of censorship to quell discourse over ‘alleged’ police brutality.
