Professor Yang Yansui of Qinghua University

Professor Yang Yansui (born 1953) is Director of Social Politics Institute and Director of Social Security Research Center at Qinghua University. Yang received a J.D. from Universiteit Gent in Ghent, Belgium.

Professor Yang suggested to postpone retiring age in China, which has been more obviously inevitable given the pressure for one working couple to support one child and four retired grandparents thanks to One-child-per-family policy in China. However Yang suggested only postponing the time for seniors to start receiving their pension, but not the age they would retire. Yang argued people should retire at age 50 to make space for younger generations, but start receiving pension payment only after age 65. When inquired by reporters what would seniors do in the 15 year gap, Yang replied, male could do volunteer work as gardeners, and female could volunteer in the laundry rooms.

Yang's roadmap for Chinese social security is particularly damaging because of her job functions as the console for the Union General, Panelist for Labor and Social Security Ministry, etc. Rotten Index: ♣

Professor Zhou Xincheng of People's University of China

Professor Zhou Xincheng, former Dean of Graduate School at the People's University of China, proclaimed there was no universal value in the world. This is a direct rebuttal to the former Premier Wen Jiabao's advocate to political reform and pursuit of universal value, including individual's dignity. Professor argued that each country had its own values.

It is an irony by itself, in the sense that the CCP just declared that it held the ultimate truth of the universe.

Professor Li Keji of Beijing University

Professor Li made himself under the spot light after he made a statement at a public event sponsored by Maotai, a top Chinese liquor producer, affirming that additives such as Melamine and Plasticizer were safe for human consumption.

It's no secret that many Chinese liquor is blended by industrial material. However, it has been unthinkable to the public until recently that even top level brand, such as Maotai, and Jiugui (drunk ghost) did the same. Also it had been a secret on how to make a one year liquor taste like 60 years liquor, in other words, how to make the liquor taste 'rich (thinker and heavier)'. Both 'Jiugui' and 'Maotail' have been tested to contain unreasonably high volume of plasticizer.

Professor Li argued that tea, coffee and cell phone signals are all cancer causing sources, and that melamine and plasticizer are also cancer causing sources. If people can drink tea, than they can drink plasticizer. Professor Li also challenged the safety standard published by the Health Department on plasticizer in food. "All experiments so far were on rats, and the data were scaled to human," said Li, "before a human experiment on plasticizer, the standard was not usable."

Chen Junshi of Chinese CDC

Mr. Chen Junshi is the Director of the Nutrition and Food Safety Institute of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and prevention. Chen is a member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering. Chen has been involved in almost every food related scandal:

• Chen is the main advocate of iron-fortified soy sauce. In reality, the method carries potential elevated risk of cancer, and the entire campaign has been driven by business interests. Without adequate study on side effects of iron-fortified soy sauce, Chen cited practice of iron-fortified flour as scientific proof. As a matter of fact, long term effect of food fortification is still a controversy in academia.
• Chen is the main advocate of genetic engineered (GE) Golden Rice in China. In a meeting organized by the Chinese CDC Fortification Office, but sponsored by BASF in 2009, Chen employed dated, totally meaningless, figures (11% Chinese children suffers from VDA) to steer public opinion by creating fear, uncertainty and doubts.
• In the wake of melamine poisoned milk, Chen commented: 'although thousands [note by blogger, millions were impacted, thousands were hostilities to surgically remove kidney stones. Chen lied here] children were impacted, only a few actually died. It's really not a big situation warrants response from the regulatory agencies [headed by Chen himself].' When many infants died after using fake milk in Fuyang, Anhui, Chen stated, 'it's not poisoned milk, just fake milk without enough nutrition, therefore not a food safety issue.'
• When some reporters and experts alerted the society of sewage oil (recollected cooking oil from sewage system) in the food industry, Chen disputed it that it was technically impossible to mass manufacture cooking oil from the sewage. Now it is proved that such mass manufacture existed and is traceable in almost all cooking oil retailed in China, not only small restaurants, but also upscale restaurants and major household brands.
• When there is no business interests, Chen opposes government regulation in general. Talking about consumers's food safety awareness, Chen commented that as long as they stick to products of good international brand name, there is little to be worried. The comment itself is not far from the reality in China. However, it is a disservice to ordinary Chinese people who can't afford brand name products, and an irresponsible attitude as a chief government official in food safety in China.

Chen Junshi's title includes Director of National Food Safety and Risk Assessment Expert Committee, and Director of National Food Supplement Academic Committee (a industrial association), which is a clear conflict of interest.

Professor Chen Xingliang of Beijing University

Professor Chen Xingliang is the Chair of the Academic Committee of the Law School of Beijing University. Vice Chair of Chinese Criminal Law Association, Vice Chair of Chinese Judicial Procedure Association.

As a full time tenured professor in a public university, and not a practicing lawyer, Chen took bribe from criminal organization and offer obviously biased opinion in the form of amicus curiae in the Changshu migrant farmer self-defense case. The act was uncovered when an article authored by Chen was published by the Post of People's Court.

Professor Chen's act is particularly egregious in this case because he knowingly put a few innocent defenseless migrant workers behind bars. Professor Chen must have strong hearts, to frame people with names, faces, families and kids, who walk and talk in such a splendid way. Pocketing from bad policy aside, not even every corrupt officials are willing to put harms on real people.

Professor Fan Chongyi of CUPL

Professor Fan Chongyi (b. 1940) is the Director Procedure Law Center at the China University of Political Science and Law.

A new revision of the Chinese Criminal Procedure Law was passed by the National People's Congress on March 14, 2012. The law granted police authority to detain suspects without notifying their families. Many legal experts and civil right activists opposed this revision because it essentially make secret detention a lawful practice. Secret detention in name of national security has been a common practice to lock away anyone the police do not like. Last year, artist Ai Weiwei was secretly detained for several month because of his opinion on the construction quality of some public schools. A Beijing resident was secretly detained for several months because her son killed police in revenge after being abused by police. She was not released until her son was executed.

Fan argued that secret detention does not take place in China. Fan further said it was necessary to secretly detain enemies of the State. Rotten Index: ♣♣

Professor Yu Qiuyu of MUST

Dean of the College of Humanity Arts of the Macau University of Science and Technology, Professor Yu Qiuyu had been flying out of the radar of this blog, mostly because of the presumption that writers do not have virtue. But increasingly so, Professor Yu managed to make himself standing out high above almost other writers alive in China, thus this entry.

Around the time of the Great Cultural Revolution, Yu's father was jailed, and his uncle was forced suicide. Yu, however, devoted himself and embraced the 'revolution' with full heart, as a major writer advocating for the revolution. Yu is a red guard and a key member of the group 'Shi Yi Ge (a song of the rock)' which was responsible for numerous articles that had been used in propaganda campaign for the revolution. Yu had been linked directly to persecution of intelligentsia with conscious and value. Yu is also a key editorial member of journal 'Morning Cloud', which is an important vehicle of the spreading of 'cultural revolution'.

Yu had been criticized for having no clue of history while writing about history, along plagiarism and other unethical behavior and academic misconduct. However, those were not the concern of this blog.

What enraged us, the normal people, are Yu's aggressive accusations on anyone who do not fully agree with the communism ideology and the ruling of the communist party. After the Sichuan Earthquake, when tens of thousands of people were killed, and disproportional school buildings collapsed, people demand the government to investigate the building quality of school buildings. Yu jumped out, and threatened parents who had their children killed should remind silence, otherwise their act could be exploited by anti-government movement. Yu encouraged them to 'act like the ruling class of this country', and collaborate to keep the mood of the country. Yu, has been a iconic figure of shamelessness, and a living proof that a person with knowledge have the capacity to dive deeper below moral bottom line.

The 220 Clan

The revision of article 220 of the Criminal Procedure Law granted the police unlimited power to secretly detain human rights activists and political dissidents alike. They could be put into confinement without legal proceedings and without informing their families. The revision was made after the international society called foul when the authority secretly detained artist Ai Weiwei and his entire team, including accountants, drivers, interns for months without telling any of their families members their whereabouts. Ai Weiwei was last seen at Beijing Airport before taken away from public eyes. Therefore, his family could figure he must be detained although the authority never admitted. For his team members, they were taken separately so for a long period their families could not figure out what had happened to them.

Following scholars and professors endorsed the revision, which was a.k.a. Article 220.

Also according to data log, traffic signal at the area were showing green all the way. Also according to data log, ground based blocking system was not functioning at the time.

On the contrary, the driver of D301 stayed on his stand to the last second, and was stuck to death by the emergency brake handle. The driver, Mr. Pan, probably saved hundreds of people's life. Throwing a hero under the bus, just to sell more ill designed rail systems were nothing short of murder.

Few lawyers are brave enough to speak for framed lawyer Li Zhuang, but Wu Danhong is the only one from academia who is bold enough to defend the illegal maneuvers of the Chongqing authority in the trail.

Coincidentally, in another high-profile case, murder of Qian Yunhui, Wu was the only one jumped out to question legality of revealing evidence of torture of witness by the police. Wu claimed police entitled the rights to torture, and that lawyer were not allowed by law to reveal.

After the 7/23 bulletin train accident, Wu set up a self-labelled grass root 'Anti-Rumor' Alliance organization, which closely collaborated with the central propaganda department and CCP controlled media to 'clarify' rumors spread on the Internet. 'Rumors' targeted by Wu's Alliance were later proved to be facts. Documents leaked from Wu's Alliance showed pro-Democratic activists were specifically targeted.

Wu endorsed the revision of the Criminal Procedure Law to allow the government unlimited secret detention power over human rights activists and political dissidents.

The driver noticed she was still alive, he then drew a knife and killer her. The driver was subdued by witnesses who saw the case. Professor Li argued, the driver did not intend to kill. Because the driver studied piano, he must be repeating what he used to do, pressing the keys - an obsessive-compulsive disorder, when he struck the knife 8 times into the young woman's body. Professor Li equates the murder with playing piano. Genius! Readers should not be surprised. Professor was among few who agreed with Professor Sun Dongdong of Beijing University when he said 99% of people who appeal official decisions were mentally ill.

It would be classified as a mis-step in academic research, which happens all the time, if Professor Xu had not confessed to the media that his group intentionally hide the side-effect when introducing the toxic material to be used in animal feed in China. In 2009, he explained to the media that, while at the time of 1990s the government was promoting lean pig, they felt they "shouldn't tell the other side of the story. Had they wrote about the side-effect of CLB, they wouldn't be able to publish their papers".

After exposed by the Consumer Day event on March 15, 2011, CLB usages had fomented in the last 2 weeks to a national scandal, and amounted to the largest food safety incident following the melamine milk of 2008. The incident brought to light how a big meat producer along government officials ignored obvious signs of safety violations. Alike the Sanlun melamine milk case, when the New Zealand based Fonterra owns 43% of Sunlun Diary, this time the meat producer Shuanghui (Shineway Group) of Henan Province was heavily invested and held by the Goldman Sachs of the US. The common traits of the worst public safety incidents are scientist, government, and a foreign company.
