Dear friends:
	Recently the Chinese government has launched a campaign to single
out politically active students in the U.S. and Canada.  We have got
an official document and a meeting summary from reliable sources.
	In those documents the IFCSS in US and the FCSSC in Canada were
established as main targets to strike at by the Chinese government and
its Embassies and Consulates.
	We now publicize these documents for your reference.
	Because it is too long to send in one news release we will send
them out in next three releases.
	Please be patient.

Yesterday, I got a phone call  from my wife  in  Wuhan, China.  When I
asked if she  knew Bush's new  executive order,  the line was suddenly
disconneted.  After a while, the  Chinese operator asked me: 'Have you
finished calling?'  I could say nothing but hang up the phone.

I've heard a news from a friend of mine. He said he got a mail from 
China yesterday. In the letter, he said, Chinese Authority didn't
allow any kind of family union(Tan4 Qin1), except the family member(s)
had already been granted P.R or citizenship aboard.

Letters from the mainland China told me that high-school graduates
will have to wait at least five (5) years before they are assigned
jobs.  Assuming that everyone gets a job after this waiting period, the
unemployment rate is still staggering.  In the darkest years of dying
Mao, the average "waiting for job" period was less than 5 years.  His
disciples have certainly surpassed him in every aspect.

    According to Hong Kong media, CCP has recently instructed its
embassies and consulates that overseas Chinese students from
the mainland are already divided into five categories and will be treated
differently according to which class they belong to.  The criteria of
division are based on there attitudes toward the democracy movement in
mainland China.
    Class number 5 is to be treated the most harshly and has several
hundred names including Wuer Kaixi.  No passport renewal will be
allowed for students in this category.
    (Therefore, it is easy to find out whether you are in class number
five if your passport is due for renewal).

          Migration fight with China likely(by: Peter Logue)
            << Source: Syndey Telegraph Newspaper, May 6>>

   The Federal Government will be forced to grant permanent residency(PR) 
to thousands of Chinese students living in Australia, senior government
officials believe.
   They are bracing themselves for a diplomatic row with China and problems
with other Australian ethnic communities.
   How to deal with the more than 10,000 students who were in Australia 
legally before the Tienanmen Square massacre in June last year is proving a 
big headache for the Government and the new Immigration Minister Gerry Hand.
   Immediately after the massacre the Government provided a special entry
permit to allow Chinese students to stay until January 31 next year.
   Since that time thousand of them have applied for change of status to
gain PR in Australia.
   Government sources said it was unlikely that any of the students who
were here before June last year would be forced to leave.
   Cabinet must decide when and how PR can be granted without sparking a
racist backlash and without upsetting other communities here.
   Giving thousands of students PR would allow them to gain citizenship
after two years with consequent family-reunion entitlements.
   Government sourses said they also expected China to react angrily to
any decision to allow thousands of its brightest students and academics
to stay here.
   This would happen at a time when the Government and the business community
are trying to rebuild important trade links with the huge Chinese market
which were disrupted during the political oppression last year.
   One Government source said the Government was aware that about 90 per cent 
would be able to return to China without any political problems.
   However, perhaps 10 per cent would face retaliation in China for their
outspoken support of the pro-democracy movement during their stay in
Australia.
   If even one Chinese student was imprisoned or punished after being sent
back from Australia, there would be a public outcry from human-rights
activists round the world.
