70% of Chinese Petitioners Beaten
I got a piece of information on poor people in China.
A large number of poor farmers and workers in local areas have come to, and are staying in, the capital of China, Beijing, to appeal directly to the central Government.
They are suffering from injustice and unjust transactions by local authorities in tie-ups with gangsters.
Their farm lands have been abused, contaminated, or confiscated illegally; a budget of a village or a local town is being usurped; and their human rights are being suppressed by violence.
But, more significantly, 70% of those petitioners to the central Government is beaten and violated as retaliation by local officers when they have returned home, according to a special survey.

Even when they are waiting for a chance to file a petition to a concerned public office, it usually takes several months; and some of them become homeless in Beijing.
Now, there are several thousands of such farmers in Beijing, though the number would increase to tens of thousands, when a big conference is held in the capital.
Anyway, the world should more carefully examine reports from China which is going to host the 2008 Summer Olympic Games in Beijing.

China was traditionally a country of Taoism, Confucianism, and Buddhism. But, since the Chinese Communist Party won the civil war after WWII, Marxism has been adopted and applied, wiping out some important traditions.
Though Chinese people can individually rely on its long history and traditions, especially nowadays in the era of market-oriented economy, the social system is still based on the philosophy which was devised in the European Christian Civilization.
(Marxism is regarded as anti-religion, but it is in fact anti-Christian-Civilization. Karl Marx was born in an Israelite family; and thus though he later converted to Protestantism and atheism, he might have wanted to challenge the Christian civilization, which was then not beneficial to poor Europeans, no matter if consciously or unconsciously.
Adolf Hitler must have taken Marxism as anti-Christian-Civilization philosophy. Hitler must have partly believed that he was doing a right thing by attacking Israelites, one of whom had come up with the philosophy, so as to defend the Christian Civilization in Germany.
Hitler's attacks on Israelites and the Soviet Union were carried out from the same motivation no matter if it was just a veneer one to mobilize German citizens: defending the Christian Civilization in Germany from Marxism, the anti-Christian-Civilization philosophy, and from Israelites, one of whom thought up the philosophy [probably according to Hitler's interpretation, with a dangerous intention deeply hidden inside against Christian society].
In any kind of way, I do not defend Adolf Hitler, who distressed Japan even after WWII due to its coalition with Germany during the war, at all. I love to see "The Great Dictator" Charles Chaplin produced.
But, as Hitler had hit the crucial point, "Defense of European Christian Civilization," even ordinary and sensible German people were tragically induced to follow him; consequently they attacked Israelites with religious justification internally for which each Christian system in Europe should be liable, at least, to a certain degree.
Finally and most importantly, Chinese ministers and high-ranking officers of their Party and Government should not, in any circumstances, blame a Japanese Prime Minister as being "another Hitler" in this era of peace in the Far East.)

In extreme argument, Chinese are apt to pursue materialism, while Japanese adore spiritualism.
Of course, God is spirit as well known in the Christian Civilization.
(A human relationship should be also spiritual. Spirit can send message beyond time and space. But, a human body cannot)
