The 'intellectuals' are used to be the conscience of the Chinese society. We need to bring back the self esteem and pride of being an intellectual, and we can only achieve that after we correct what we did wrong. We should no longer play the trick of being a sub-proletariat to get away from behaving like a sub-human. We also should no longer sit indifferently when one of us doing just that.

Dong Shuning of CCRI
Dong, Chair of the expert committee which was invited by the local government in Guangdong concluded a coal mine was safe for production, without going down the mine himself. Hours after the the final report was submitted to his sponsor, and even before the 'expert committee' could fly out the local airport, the mine was submerged by water, and 123 miners died. It was long known fact that those mines were not safe to be dug. They were closed by the provincial safety administration in 2001.
Although Dong is not as established or influential as his peer rotten intellectuals exposed by this log, he is one of the deadliest nonetheless. His priced-for-fast-order 'expert opinion' costs 123 lives.

Professor Jiao Guobiao of PKU
Professor Jiao Guobiao gave a talk at Yale University on China Media Control on Nov 18th, 2004
Professor Jiao is a shame of PKU, a shame of Henan people, and a shame of Chinese. Ht takes no difference between the country, the people, and the political party who's running the government. He attacks everything CCP does, regardless the nature and implications to the Chinese people. By the way, his literature skill and taste sucks.
He went to the US in late 2004.

Professor Li Yining of PKU
Professor Li Yining, Dean of Guanghua Management College, talked at the 7th Guanghua New Year Forum on Dec 25th, 2004
While many people are starving, many students have to drop out of school because of poverty, professor Li Yining claimed that Chinese people were so rich that most of them had second houses somewhere.
Professor Li claimed, if not all professors of PKU had their own cars and vacation houses, then the economic reform of China could be seen a failure.
In 2004, when the housing price in all major Chinese cities were already over priced, Li stated that there were no bubble in real estate market.
His 2005 study recommended that China should make policy to keep an low income population to maintain the low cost of labors.

Professor Li Xiguang of THU
Professor Li Xiguang, vice Dean of Mass Communication College of Tsinghua University, talked at a forum on Jan. 5th, 2005
Why does Professor Li deserve a place here?
1) He suggested to the CCP that they should force Chinese people to use their real names on the Internet. This practically shut down all the online BBS/forums in China, especially those campus based.
2) His double-faces career approach, in which he suggested harsher control to the Chinese government, and at the same time, criticizing the Chinese government over media control when he talked to the westerners.
Professor Li is the Director of Center for International communication studies at the School of Humanities and Social Sciences and Academic Dean of the Department of communications at Tsinghua University. His homepage is http://lass.calumet.purdue.edu/cca/gmm/Profiles/Li%20Xiguang.html.
The communist government was furious after the Nobel committee Nils Göran David Malmqvist gave the 2011 Nobel Peace Prize to political dissident Liu Xiaobo. Li wrote an article, in which he revealed one committee member took $600,000 bribe from a Chinese writer in exchange nomination for the Literature Prize. Li claimed his source was 'Chinese Broadcast Network', a Chinese equivalent of OK or STAR magazine. However, no such information could be found at the 'Chinese Broadcast Network'.

Why do I start this topic?
Intellectuals has been the spine upholding Chinese culture for thousands of years. Unfortunately, from time to time, we see some bad apples. These bad apples need to be picked out.
We don't have resources to get every corrupt professors in China, but we will make our best efforts to get those who make most damages.
To single out the worst, we skipped a lot bad ones. For an example on the Sina-Japan relationship, independent scholar Mao Yushi publicly denounced current anti-Japan movement and professor Liang Yuanxiang of PKU advocated for the security council seat for Japan. Both of them are shame of Chinese intellectuals. However Mao is a decent scholar with independent mind. Although I personally felt offended by his words, he did not belong to this list. On the other hand, Liang was little known to the extend it seems he created the incident to collect publicity. We will not reward him with a spot in this Hall of Shame.
An interesting and rather puzzling observation are that two groups of people suffered the most under the communists regime: the farmers and the intellectuals. However, so far the farmers has been seen as a solid ruling foundation of the regime, thanks to the excellent job of the intellectuals who tried their best to fool the people. Those 'intellectuals' who have been sleeping in bed with the communists party are in the least carrying the same guilt.
Readers may notice that many featured rotten intellectuals are of Beijing University and Qinghua University. The two schools gathered the most established and influential professors in China. Having most entries in this Hall was a shame for both, but nonetheless, they are still the two best universities in China.
