Chinese Government Blogging?


People's Representatives in China are starting to blog.

As the Danwei blog says, it's unlikely anything too inflammatory would stay up, but still, here's a translation of one comment:
Representative Ye, you are a National People's Representative, did you know that ten years ago, the Chinese government signed the UN's International Convention on Civil and Political Rights? 



Without democracy we cannot unite, this is the common understanding of the Democratic Progressive Party's unification policy. How do you see democratic peaceful unification? When do you think the People's Congress will consider the International Convention on Civil and Political Rights, and even better, protect and safeguard human rights to promote peaceful unification?
