As a regular Red Cross donor, I could only hope the British Red Cross could do a better job. Otherwise I have to seriously be thinking if my money is being used properly.
Has this campaign ever respected the human right of 1.3 billion Chinese people who are expecting a successful Olympics which should not be mixed by politics?
BTW, to add a little bit knowledge to this campaign. Tibetan Chinese has distinct features of their look. The 'victims' on picture no.3 & 4 are by no means Tibetan Chinese. And those out-of-context pictures are very suspicious of being staged or simply taken on any of the training grounds. The haircut and the vest of the guy on the ground are very much of a feature of normal member of the Chinese army.
you can't answer it, can you?
Being in the UK, I don't trust the propaganda from China. But the propaganda from the western media is also appalling. They use Human Right as a tool to promote their own agenda. They simply discredit the human Right movement a lot.
Do you know who the winner is? It's the Chinese government. In the past many Chinese think only the Chinese media did the propaganda. Now they know the western media do exactly the same thing.
To foster a discussion? Fair enough.
But
How can you carry out a meaningful discussion without knowing the truth?
How can you carry out a meaningful discussion about China and Tibet looking at some pictures from Nepal?
This campaign is simply groundless. It uses five pictures in their ad. Three of them were taken in Nepal and on the other two there was not even a single Tibetan person!
How on earth can Chinese government hold responsibility for what Nepalese police were doing? How can you demonstrate anything using a picture taken without any context?
People in the west outcries a crackdown in Tibet in March. For goodness’s sake, after four months we could not even get a decent picture to show it. Yes, there was media restriction from the Chinese government. But thousands of western tourists were actually in Tibet when the riot happened and this is 21st century, would you believe with all those mobile phone cameras and camcorders, no one, yes, not a single person has ever made one shot? How ridiculous!

i don't agree big phew's approach, although i totally understand why he's so angry.
the swedisn youth red cross's die hard stance is unexcused. they can't say one thing and do another, especially under the name of red cross. what kind of education will the swedish kids get from them?
btw, if you read simon's comments on facebook, you would find his words are no better than big phew's. and big phew is not working for red cross, but simon is.
