.@,U!y*b#W#o$V8P BEIJING — Thousands of people have rioted in a county in southwest China, setting fire to government buildings and overturning cars in angry protests over the official handling of the death of a local teenage girl, according to a human rights group, state news media and videotapes of the events.
$@ Q)uE)Y/Vn-Z R:l~!U [
The protests in the county of Weng’an in Guizhou Province are another reminder of how quickly public anger can ignite in China over cases of perceived official corruption and malfeasance. For the past few years, public discontent has erupted into small demonstrations and violence across the country.

@/A7Lx8rJy"J The protests in Weng’an on Saturday appear to have been larger, reportedly involving thousands of residents, including children. News agencies reported that protesters clashed with paramilitary police officers sent to the county. JN2h M b

By Saturday, the human rights group reported, about 500 middle school students had gone to protest at the public security bureau. But the students were turned away and beaten, a move that immediately roused an angry mob of thousands of people who began setting fire to buildings and overturning cars.

By Sunday morning, a local resident told The Associated Press that the police were using megaphones to urge the crowds to leave while local television channels were calling on people involved in the protests to surrender to the authorities.0j ^zE A4| s;ni

“Thick black smoke billowed everywhere,” one resident told The Associated Press. “The incident shows that the social order around here is not stable.” Vp U sz

Y+m ^)wcs0AA The state-run news agency Xinhua confirmed the violence in a brief article and said the situation had stabilized. Referring to the investigation into the girl’s death, the news agency reported, “Some people who did not know about the exact context of what had happened were instigated to mob the police station and the office buildings of the county government and Communist Party committee.” PIEk4]*['px9j

The demonstrations were less than six weeks before Beijing hosts the Olympic Games, and security officials are deeply worried about potential outbreaks of unrest across China.

many policemen are more concern about how to make more money than anything else,

The corruption is really exist and we can see,but the most important thing is seeking some way to solve but not complaining

i've touched some news from Tianya forum,however, i never expected things went such a mess.Maybe the people has been unrevealed there anger a long time,and the death of the girl just lighted up the fire as repoted,which led to such a tragedy. `twNs/ee8q.N

!@uA$Lh I am sure such tradegy will be followed one after another before of corruption and malfeasance ended;there is something terrible wrong with the system of local government,maybe the whole governemt ststem.It is really a sarcastic humor to imprint"serve for people" on the government door.

I'd liket to share  the event in our city,that CCIB(Chinsese central inspection bureau) published a new principle,which every model with different circuit should be tested very year,which means for electrical goods,every model should sent for test in two specification 220-240V 50Hz/110-120V 60Hz,the factories should pay 1500yuan/1900yuan for each test, the test usual lasts 15 work days,it is not allowed to delivery the goods except the first time.you can image how terrible for the factories,if he has 20 models(in fact,most factories has much more than 20 models),he should pay at least 20x2x1500=60,000 money on the test.What's the worse,it totally affect the step of good delivery,in fact, many factory has mountains of goods and put where it has space,which,of course,make the factories in totally trouble,especailly for such difficult period." What's the hell of the government,is he playing fire himself?b KV^1s U

xp,d I2c'[%y If I were in there, there is no doubt that I gonna be one of the riotors,to the fuck hell,bird man.that's what i am crying in my deep heartV.{l7X"j-l LeC
