![]() Will he change anything in China - No. ![]() ![]() [The the man may have travelled to the capital to petition for a particular social cause. This is looking like a tragic story really. There are a lot of people in China who call themselves 'petitioners'. "Every now and again they go a little bit further and it's a very much more extreme form of petitioning and that I think, is what this appears to be." Stone said most petitioners complain of local corruption, land grabs and beatings. He added that a blog purporting to have been written by the man contains claims he was beaten and paralysed by Chinese police in 2005. This has not been verified. Terminal 3, which opened in 2008 just ahead of the Beijing Olympics, is the airport's hub for international flights. United Airlines and American Airlines operate out of the terminal.] http://news.sky.com/story/1118293/be...heelchair-user Last edited by arista; 21-07-2013 at 07:47 AM. |
