Free Tibet
On Monday, "...five pro-Tibet activists unfurled a banner spelling out "Free Tibet" in English and Chinese in blue LED "throwie" lights in Beijing's Olympic Park tonight. The five were detained by security personnel after displaying the banner for about 20 seconds at 11:48 pm August 19th. Their whereabouts are unknown."Their whereabouts are unknown. I think that says a lot about the state of political freedom in China. China is high tech when it comes to electronics and backwards when it comes to political freedom. Not a surprise.
