President-Elect William J. Clinton
Vice President-Elect Albert Gore Jr.
112 West 3rd St.
Little Rock, Arkansas 72201

Dear President-Elect Clinton and Vice President-Elect Gore:

We were very pleased to learn that you had been elected President
and Vice President of the United States and would like to extend,
on behalf of the 50,000 Chinese students currently studying in this
country, our warm congratulations.

Your election reflected the general sentiment of the American
people for change and progress, which we believe will come soon
under your capable leadership. A strong, prosperous America is in
the interests of all the peace-loving people of the world.

We are well aware and deeply thankful of the concern you have shown
over the human rights situation in China and will continue to look
up to you for support in our pursuit of democracy and freedom. We
are convinced that pressure from the world community, particularly
the United States, will help effect positive changes in China's
political structure and ultimately bring about a democratic
government in the world's most populous country.

Sincerely,

Xiao Geng, President

Baoping He, Vice President
