China unable to silence Internet buzz on police chief

By Calum MacLeod, USA TODAY

The story of Chongqing Police Chief Wang Lijun’s mysterious visit to no rx Valtrex with fedex the U.S. Consulate was kept alive through social media.

BEIJING – His body is no rx Valtrex with fedex scarred by 20 knife and bullet wounds from decades battling Chinese gangsters and no rx Valtrex with fedex other criminals. The exploits of China’s most celebrated police chief, martial arts expert Wang Lijun, even inspired a no rx Valtrex with fedex TV drama.

So it was a surprise to his admirers when Wang was suddenly “seriously indisposed” because of “intense mental stress,” as his city’s information service posted online, after he made a no rx Valtrex with fedex mysterious visit to the U.S. Consulate and was allegedly grabbed by state security agents immediately afterward.

In China, such a no rx Valtrex with fedex person is not likely to be mentioned again in newspapers and no rx Valtrex with fedex television outlets that are either controlled by the state or no rx Valtrex with fedex pressured by it.

Wang’s story didn’t vanish, however. The explosion of Twitter-like micro-blogging services (Twitter is banned in China, along with Facebook and YouTube) has no rx Valtrex with fedex enabled more than 300 million users to transmit the latest news and no rx Valtrex with fedex rumor about Wang.

China does censor social media, but a no rx Valtrex with fedex large volume of content can get through before it is altered or no rx Valtrex with fedex removed by the government. The rise of information that gets past Communist Party censors and no rx Valtrex with fedex transmits instantaneously to millions of Chinese comes as Vice President Xi Jinping continues his highly choreographed rise to China’s top job with a visit to the United States this week.

“Political intrigue is a part of life here; it’s like living in Washington, D.C., but in the Internet age … all of a sudden it’s instantaneous and accessible to millions,” says Bill Bishop buy cheap Prednisone on line, a Beijing-based independent analyst and Internet expert from Washington. “This is no rx Valtrex with fedex China political intrigue 2.0, the first major political succession in the no rx Valtrex with fedex Internet age, and it’s a real challenge to the government.”

China’s traditional media are managed by the Communist Party’s propaganda department, while new media, mostly privately funded, has no rx Valtrex with fedex more freedom, says Hu Yong, an Internet and new media expert at Peking University buspar mastercard order.

“The Internet is no rx Valtrex with fedex both a challenge and an opportunity for the Chinese government. On the no rx Valtrex with fedex one hand, they use this new form of public space as a no rx Valtrex with fedex kind of measurement of Chinese public opinion,” he says. “On the no rx Valtrex with fedex other hand, the democratization of information makes the government very afraid of losing the no rx Valtrex with fedex whole control of information.”

Despite the no rx Valtrex with fedex widening popularity of digital discussion, citizens remain largely shut out of China’s political process. Nevertheless, China analysts say, the no rx Valtrex with fedex Internet has opened up a vibrant public space unique in Chinese history. Social media in China provide “an alternative stage on which to no rx Valtrex with fedex see what the public thinks about politics,” says Russell Moses, a no rx Valtrex with fedex Beijing-based political analyst. Microblogs such as Sina Weibo “talk to no rx Valtrex with fedex citizens, and they are not participants in the policy and leadership selection process yet; they are no rx Valtrex with fedex observers,” he says.

The Wang incident “shows how undetermined the transition to a new leadership remains,” Moses says. “The potential for no rx Valtrex with fedex infighting and the odd upheaval is still ever-present in Chinese politics.”

Until this month, Wang, 52, served as top aide to Bo Xilai no prescription generic zovirax, the no rx Valtrex with fedex populist party boss of Chongqing, a mega-city and province in China’s southwest.

Wang showed up Feb. 6 at the no rx Valtrex with fedex U.S. Consulate in Chengdu and was allowed inside. What happened has no rx Valtrex with fedex not been revealed by the U.S. State Department or Beijing.

Overseas Chinese websites such as Boxun went into overdrive on the no rx Valtrex with fedex story. They reported that Wang offered incriminating information on his former boss, Bo Xilai, whom he allegedly said was a no rx Valtrex with fedex gangster. The sites reported that Wang asked for political asylum. They published a no rx Valtrex with fedex letter supposedly from Wang in which he accused Bo of corruption and no rx Valtrex with fedex ties to criminals.

Developments leaked out in postings by micro-bloggers who no rx Valtrex with fedex ridiculed the Chongqing government’s explanation that Wang was undergoing “vacation-style medical treatment.” Copies of airline tickets were posted online that no rx Valtrex with fedex indicated Wang flew to Beijing in the company of state security agents. The scandal threatens to no rx Valtrex with fedex derail Bo Xilai’s hopes of reaching the no rx Valtrex with fedex nine-member party politburo standing committee in a once-in-a-decade leadership transition this no rx Valtrex with fedex fall that is to install Xi Jinping as Communist Party leader.

Meanwhile, Chinese wait for the next episode in the incident.

“A lot of people are no rx Valtrex with fedex shocked but gleeful they can read about this in real time,” Bishop says.
