【禁聞】「罷免官員」中國公民維權新臺階

【新唐人2011年4月6日訊】中國最近發生多起民眾要求罷免當地官員的事件，指控官員對民眾的訴求「不作為」。法律人士認為，從民眾上訪到要求罷免地方官員，顯示中國公民維權的新層次。

重慶萬名失地農民代表，4月1號到市人大遞交罷免市長的動議書。重慶失地村民從06年開始維權上訪，沒有任何結果，還遭打壓，許多村民被多次毆打，也被多次非法關押和拘留。他們認為，這是當地政府上下腐敗造成的，市領導官商勾結欺壓民眾、無視法律、不為人民做主，所以要求罷免市長。

而，就在「兩會」前後，上海和哈爾濱的公民，也因失去土地問題得不到合理、合法的解決，哈爾濱市5000公民，上海數萬市民的代表，已經啟動了罷免區長，市人大主任、市長和省長的活動。

另外，早在去年（2010年）的下半年，陝西省山林木業的股東們因法院、公安胡為，大家找省長告狀沒有成效的情況下，四萬人要求罷免省長等官員。

要求罷免上海市人大等官員的組織者代表瀋佩蘭對《美國之音》表示，上訪的路走不通，他們就啟動罷免程序。

瀋佩蘭（上海市民）：「我們上訪要受到打壓，到現在也沒有人來解決我們的問題。現在我們是按照法律，國家的憲法，他們不給我們解決，我們就啟動我們的公民權利罷免他們。」

對此，大陸民間網站權利運動負責人張建平，4號對《自由亞洲電臺》說：

張建平（權利運動網站工作者）：「我覺得很有意思，給力，對行政長官濫徵農民耕地這種現象，應該進行彈劾，我們應該行使公民的權利，我們不應該…共產黨不讓我們行使自己的權力就放棄這個權力，我們應該表達自己的訴求，我們有法律依據這樣做。」

北京法律工作者郝勁松則對《美國之音》表示，以前民眾遇到冤屈，他就上訪，一遍一遍哭訴自己的事情，但不能解決問題。他經過思考：

郝勁松（北京法律工作者）：「他發現，原來基層的官員腐敗也好，侵犯自己的權益也好，是由於上面的不作為造成的。 所以這個時候他就希望罷免這些官員。」

郝勁松認為，目前中國公民依法要求罷免地方官員的行動，是一種進步，把維權行動躍進了一個層次。

報導說，香港大學經濟系教授許成鋼認為，土地私有產權問題成了中國政治、經濟的中心問題，中共不還地於民，社會矛盾只會越演越烈。

北京學者、著名翻譯家彭定鼎也對《大紀元》新聞網表示：中國土地私有化，客觀上是勢在必行。但是中共不會還地於民，因為目前中共政權就靠利益集團支撐，不可能把土地私有化，即使社會矛盾再尖銳。

海外媒體人云中劍也認為：中共為了維護它的強權統治，需要龐大的政權體系及財力支撐，離開了土地財政，中共就會土崩瓦解。因此，他認為：「中共貪婪獨裁的本性注定它在土地問題上，也會選擇一條背離人類普世價值的絕路，最終走向解體。」

Landless Villagers Dismiss Officials

Recent events in China have spurred demands

for the dismissal of officials who were accused

of “doing nothing” in addressing issues.

Legal professionals believe petitions that ask

for the removal of local officials is the only way

for Chinese citizens to defend their rights.

On April 1, representatives of tens of thousands

of landless farmers went to Chongqing Municipal

People's Congress to submit a proposal

to remove the mayor. Chongqing landless villagers

have been petitioning for rights since 2006.

Villagers are repeatedly beaten and illegally detained.

City officials and land developers joined

to illegally oppress people.

Since officials don』t serve the people,

people request to remove the mayor.

During the regime』s 『two meetings』 in March,

5000 Harbin citizens and representatives

of tens of thousands of Shanghai citizens launched

a recall of the district leader, the Municipal People's

Congress director, the mayor and the governor,

due to the lack of reasonable

and lawful settlement over their land loss.

Moreover, as early as the 2nd half of 2010,

40,000 shareholders of Sha』anxi Province

mountain and forestry enterprises went

to the Sha』anxi』s governor to launch a lawsuit

against the corruption between the Sha』anxi Court

and the Public Security Bureau. Not getting result,

they requested the removal of the governor

and other officials from their positions.

Shen Peilan, representative of organizers to remove

Shanghai People's Congress』 and other officials

told Voice of America, since petition does not work,

they started the process to dismissing officials.

Shen Peilan: “We are suppressed for appealing

for our rights. Until now, no one helped us.

What we are doing now is according to the law,

the country』s constitution. They do not resolve

our issues, so we launch our rights to recall them.”

Regarding this trend, mainland China

non-government Internet rights movement leader,

Zhang Jianping, told Radio Free Asia on April 4:

“This is very interesting and encouraging.

Officials abuse their power and steal land.

They should be impeached. We should exercise

our rights as citizens. We should not give up

our rights because the regime does not allow us to.

We have a legal basis to express our request.”

Beijing lawyer Hao Jinsong told Voice of America,

that in the past when someone faced injustice,

he would petition, talk and cry over and over again

about the injustice, but that doesn』t solve anything.

Then he thought it over:

“He found out that the cause of officials』 corruption

and their rights being violated is high-level officials』

negligence. Therefore he hopes to dismiss them.”

Hao Jinsong thinks Chinese citizens』 requests

to remove officials from their positions,

according to the law,

is a leap to the next level to defend their rights.

Professor of Finance at University of Hong Kong,

Chenggang Xu, thinks land privatization

is a key political and economic issue in China.

The social conflicts will be more and will intensify

until the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)

returns the land to its people.

Renowned Beijing scholar Peng Dingding,

told The Epoch Times: “Land privatization in China

is imperative, but the government will not return

the land to people, as the current regime

is supported by those who benefit from it.

Land privatization is impossible,

no matter how intense social conflicts become.”

Overseas media professional Yu Zhongjian thinks:

“To maintain its power, CCP needs a huge political

structure and a large amount of money.

Without the money from land, CCP will collapse.”

He believes that the communist party』s greed

and totalitarian nature has automatically taken

the path against universal principles.

This will inevitably lead CCP to its disintegration.
