HONG KONG -- At a press conference today, Amnesty International called on businesses and governments investing in China not to put money before lives, but to live up to their responsibility to promote and protect human rights. Pierre Sané, Secretary General of Amnesty International, also condemned attempts to silence the organization's message on China. This followed the detention of Amnesty International delegates in Bangkok to launch a worldwide campaign on human rights in China. “As Amnesty members around Asia and the world take up this campaign, there may be other attempts to silence us,” Pierre Sané warned. “Other governments may help to shelter China from international criticism, but they will not stop us.” Amnesty International dispelled a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman's comments that the organization's findings were “not even worth refutation”, and that it harboured deep prejudices against China. “We are not interested in rhetoric from the Chinese government -- we are interested in dialogue,” Pierre Sané said. Amnesty International said that it holds no prejudice against the Chinese people. It is campaigning against the human rights violations reported by Chinese people themselves and pressing for reforms that will benefit all of China's citizens. The Chinese authorities' response to Amnesty International's campaign is typical of China's stonewalling on its human rights record, Amnesty International said.
