China's Great Wall of Silence

Received the following email from China today which I publish under the above title since it relates to the PRC's congenital lying to its people and the world. I do apologize to the writer and to non-Chinese speakers (like me) for the atrocious Google translation. One can still get the gist though. 


Huang Lianhua, Huang Xiao branches raw cold, dry glass put Moin life & the past year, the official repeated recently under the pressure of public opinion, and finally try to cover the Sichuan earthquake to publish a number of students in 5335 death of the missing. However, the authorities claimed, "After repeated  checking, "the number one came out, that line of people had beenwidely questioned. In the nearly hundreds of thousands ofearthquake victims in number, "including primary and secondary schools, kindergarten children and colleges students, " how could account for only 5%? Is it possible? Beijing artist Ai Weiwei, said the Sichuan earthquake killed more than 5,335 students, is far from complete official figures. Ai Weiwei that the Government is very reluctant to publish a list of the students killed in the earthquake, which released the list but forced by the great socialand international public opinion pressure. Mr. Tan Zuoren peoplewho Sichuan earthquake 64 primary schools on the statistics is that teachers and students for the 5781 death of people.According to the Sichuan Education Minister Tu Wentao, May 21 last year, the provincial education system in the internal meeting,informed the education system in Wenchuan earthquake killed 6581 people in total, of which 6376 students were killed, 1274missing, 1107 people were buried. Authorities realized that the earthquake death toll in the primary and secondary students in China and around the world have become the focus of attention, so they put it as "state secrets. " Because of this, independent investigation of the earthquake of civil and human rights activistHuang Qi Tan Zuoren, of course, violated the confidentiality of thebottom line was on suspicion of "subversion of state power"charges framed prison. & to know more, you can see I give you a zip file, inside a whole variety of top-secret information, an eye-opener. 


黄莲华,黄菊枝头生晓寒,人生莫放酒杯干 &一年来,官方最近在民间舆论的一再压力下,终于遮遮掩掩地公布出四川地 震学生死亡失踪人数为5335名。但是,这个当局声称“经过反复核对”的数字 一出笼,即遭到线民的广泛质疑。在地震中遇难的近十万人数中,“包括中小 学生、幼稚园孩子及大中专院校学生”,怎么可能只占5%?这可能吗?北京艺 术家艾未未表示,川震死亡学生人数不止5335,官方公布的远不是完整的数字 。艾未未认为政府非常不情愿地公布地震中遇难学生的名单,其公布这个名单 乃是迫于巨大的社会和国际舆论的压力。四川民间人士谭作人先生对震区64所小学的统计是,死亡师生为5781人。据四 川省教育厅长涂文涛在去年5月21日在省教育系统内部会议上通报,汶川地震中 教育系统总共死亡6581人,其中学生死亡6376人,1274人失踪,1107人被埋。 当局意识到,地震中中小学生的死亡人数已成为全中国甚至全世界注目的焦点 ,所以他们把它作为“国家机密”。正因为如此,对汶川地震进行独立调查的 民间维权人士黄琦和谭作人,当然就触犯了当局的保密底线而被以涉嫌“颠覆 国家政权”的罪名构陷入狱。&要知道更多,可以看我给您发的压缩档,里边 各种绝密资料具全,大开眼界。&
