INTRODUCTION 1.1 Context Huai River Basin (HRB) is located in the transitional climate zone between southern and northern China, and the climate conditions are complex and changeable with uneven temporal and spatial distribution of rainfall. Plains in this basin are extensive and the topography is low with many branch rivers. For a long time, it was affected by the Yellow River when it breached its dikes and switched its course into the lower reaches of the Huai River. As a result, water systems within the basin are disordered and flood disasters are serious. The topography in the project areas is low, existing drainage capacity is seriously insufficient, and flood disasters occur frequently. According to statistics, damages caused by floods were more than 2/3 of total disaster damages in 1991 and 2003. The Huai River Basin Commission (HRBC) of Ministry of Water Resources (MWR) prepared the Plan for Accelerating Construction of Huai River Basin Management Project (2003~2007)after the major flood in 2003, requiring to upgrade the management of key plains and depressions in the Huai River basin, and list this project (HFMDIP) as one of the three new projects to accelerate Huai River management. To broaden the financing channel of Huai River management projects and accelerate Huai River basin flood management

    Silencing Complaints Chinese Human Rights Defenders March 11, 2008 Chinese Human Rights Defenders (CHRD) Web: http://crd-net.org/ Email: [email protected] One World, One Dream: Universal Human Rights Silencing Complaints: Human Rights Abuses Against Petitioners in China A report by Chinese Human Rights Defenders In its Special Series on Human Rights and the Olympics Abstract As China prepares to host the Olympics, this report finds that illegal interception and arbitrary detention of petitioners bringing grievances to higher authorities have become more systematic and extensive, especially in the host city of the Olympic Games, Beijing. ―The most repressive mechanisms are now being employed to block the steady stream of petitioners from registering their grievances in Beijing. The Chinese government wants to erase the image of people protesting in front of government buildings, as it would ruin the meticulously cultivated impression of a contented, modern, prosperous China welcoming the world to the Olympics this summer,‖ said Liu Debo,1 who participated in the investigations and research for this report. Petitioners, officially estimated to be 10 million, are amongst those most vulnerable to human rights abuses in China today. As they bring complaints about lower levels of government to higher authorities, they face harassment and retaliation. Officially, the Chinese government encourages petitions and has an extensive governmental bureaucracy to handle them. In practice, however, officials at all levels of government have a vested interest in preventing petitioners from speaking up about the mistreatment and injustices they have suffered. The Chinese government has developed a complex extra-legal system to intercept, confine, and punish petitioners in order to control and silence them, often employing brutal means such as assault, surveillance, harassment of family members, kidnapping, and incarceration in secret detention centers, psychiatric institutions and Re-education through Labor camps.
