M. Fan, les gens se mettent surtout a pratiquer quand ils tombent malades ou quils sont en difficulte. Il cite le cas dune paysanne quinquagenaire qui, une fois sa laryngite guerie, a abandonne tout lien avec leglise qui lavait accueillie. Ces gens font partie de ceux dont la foi nest pas inebranlable, observe en riant M. Fan. Les familles pauvres ne peuvent pas mettre dargent de cote en prevision deventuels problemes de sante. Or la maladie peut sabattre a tout moment sur nimporte qui. Fan Xiangqi explique : La Bible demande aux croyants de se rassembler frequemment. Nous passons souvent nous voir les uns les autres et rendons visite ensemble aux personnes agees isolees, afin de prier ensemble pour elles. Certains jeunes du village donnent dailleurs a leurs parents le conseil suivant : Comme je pars travailler en ville et que je ne serai plus a la maison, tu ferais mieux de pratiquer une religion ; ca toccupera lesprit !La chorale de leglise est presente des quil y a mariages ou enterrements dans une famille de fideles. Mais ce nest pas facile, car, dans les familles elargies, certains croient en Dieu, dautres non... Fan Xiangqi explique quauparavant, chaque fois quun deces survenait dans le village, il se rendait dans la famille du defunt pour la persuader dorganiser des funerailles chretiennes. Mais, un jour, il sest fait jeter dehors a coups de poing. En 2002, il a eu une bonne idee : il a construit de ses mains un corbillard a partir dun tricycle. Une fois pose dessus, le cercueil peut etre facilement tire par deux ou trois personnes. Son invention a eu beaucoup de succes, et les funerailles chretiennes sont devenues plus courantes. Mais personne nest oblige de se rallier a son eglise pour profiter de son invention. A lavenir, il va falloir que toute la famille du defunt se concerte et soit daccord pour proceder a des funerailles chretiennes avant que nous acceptions de presider la ceremonie, dit en souriant Fan Xiangqi. Dautant que les familles non croyantes peuvent utiliser son corbillard, a condition de payer 10 yuans [1 euro], ce qui correspondrait, selon lui, a une juste participation aux frais dentretien et de garage du vehicule. Une communaute semi-clandestine Le developpement de la communaute chretienne en Chine au cours des trente dernieres annees est un phenomene que la presse chinoise evite en general daborder, car il sagit dun sujet sensible. Mais la hausse du nombre de chretiens est observee par tous, et leur implication dans le champ de laction caritative les place au cur dune activite elle aussi en developpement en Chine. Des associations Caritas ont ainsi recemment vu le jour.Protestantisme et catholicisme font partie des cinq religions reconnues par les autorites (avec le bouddhisme, le taoisme et lislam). Une forte proportion de chretiens ne sont pas affilies aux associations religieuses dites patriotiques, cest-a-dire officielles. Ils pratiquent au sein deglises dites domestiques, les offices etant celebres chez des particuliers. Pasteurs et pretres officient alors dans une semi-clandestinite qui ne les met pas a labri de mesures de repression. Un nombre
indetermine de pretres catholiques sont incarceres en Chine en raison de leur fidelite au Vatican.Cette situation explique la difference entre les chiffres indiques par les differentes sources. Selon lagence officielle Xinhua, la Chine comptait 16 millions de protestants et 5,3 millions de catholiques en 2009 des chiffres en hausse depuis 1997, ou ils etaient respectivement 10 millions et 4 millions.Des chiffres proches de la realite en ce qui concerne les catholiques, selon Xinde, centre de recherche catholique du Hebei. Une etude citee par lagence Eglises dAsie estime en effet a 5,7 millions le nombre total de catholiques (Eglises officielle et non officielle). En revanche, des sources proches des Eglises non officielles estiment que le nombre de chretiens majoritairement protestants en Chine pourrait atteindre les 100 millions de personnes, selon The Times.

Global Post, 03/02/10:http://www.globalpo st.com/dispatch/ south-korea/ 100122/english- teachers- seoul-racism Animosity against English teachers in Seoul As South Korea climbs the economic ladder, the presence of foreigners is growing and so are complicated reactions to them. By Jiyeon Lee - SEOUL, South Korea It all started with a Halloween party at a bar in 2004. Most everyone was wearing a risque costume; the women were showing a lot of skin. Many foreign English teachers attended. When the photographs made their way to the internet, the English teachers were blamed. Critics objected to the revealing costumes, worn by both foreigners and locals, saying they undermined Korean women. At around the same time, news reports were circulating in Korea about foreign English teachers getting involved in drugs and sexual crimes, stirring up concern among parents and the public. An upswing in animosity toward foreign English teachers ensued, during which the group, "Citizens of Right Education" was formed. Citizens of Right Education has taken it upon itself to rid the country of foreign, unqualified English teachers. The group now has more than 17,000 members. Many of the more than 22,000 English teachers in South Korea find the movement disturbing, and say they are coming up against racism in their adopted home. Racism hasnt been a huge issue for South Korea in the past. But as the country continues to climb the economic ladder, the presence of foreigners is growing as is the multitude of cultural problems that come along with them. The number of migrant workers, English teachers and bi-racial marriages is on the rise, with the total number of registered foreigners in South Korea at more than 854,000 in 2008 nearly double the roughly 437,000 from five years ago, according to the Korean Statistical Information Service. The Association for Teachers of English in Korea (ATEK), founded in 2009 to be an advocate for foreign English teachers in the country, believes the Citizens of Right Education is distorting the image of foreign teachers. It is a vocal group of Koreans who are very xenophobic and really focused on English teachers, ATEKs Vice President Darren Bean said. The police are currently investigating a written death threat sent to ATEKs president, which the association believes was sent by the Korean online group, Bean said. The head of Citizens of Right Education strongly denies the allegation. We have said that we will catch the person behind everything and alert the police, but instead theyre saying I did it, said Yi Eun-ung, the head of the online group. Yi said he is baffled at the accusations and emphasizes that his group is not targeting legitimate teachers who are doing good jobs. Korea first saw a rise in animosity against English-speaking foreigners more than five years ago when two middle-school girls were killed in an accident caused by U.S. troops stationed in the country. Anti-American sentiments sparked at the time and led to scuffles in bars and in some cases the barring of foreigners from certain facilities. However, discrimination has been more of an issue for migrant workers from Southeast Asian countries
or Chinese ethnic Koreans working in the country. Amnesty International last year called on the country to protect migrant workers saying that they are exposed to abusive work conditions including discrimination, verbal and physical abuse, according to a statement posted to their website. Last year, the country saw its first citizen convicted for making racist comments to a professor from India, while using public transportation. The offender was slapped with a fine for hurling slurs such as Arabs are dirty, at the scholar. Lawmakers have since drafted legislation related to racial discrimination but have yet to pass the bill. Analysts point out that deeply embedded in the Korean psyche is the belief that all Koreans are from a single bloodline something that could become problematic for a country with a rising foreign population. ATEKs Bean believes the local press coverage is biased when it comes to news related to English teachers. Drug use, sexual crimes and violence are some of the dominant issues that have made headlines in the country about foreign English teachers. The number of arrested English teachers who are on employer-sponsored visas was at 114 in 2007 and 99 in 2008, according to local Yonhap News Agency, citing data provided by lawmaker Lee Koon-hyon from the ruling Grand National Party. However, these numbers are merely near the 0.5 percent range of the sponsored teachers in the country. It is still those small numbers that Yis online group is after. Were not trying to say all those with English-teaching- visas are criminals, Yi said. When asked whether his activities, which include tailing teachers in question to find evidence, could be seen as invasive, Yi said his group is simply addressing blind spots in the law enforcement. Postings from the past on the Citizens of Right Education, Yi admits, have contained racist remarks. However, the leader said inappropriate content has been removed and that he consistently monitors postings to ensure they dont include racist content. Yi said that most of the members of Citizens of Right Education are concerned parents, and he asks foreign teachers to try to see things from their point of view. His group will try to do the same, he added.
complicated Chinas relations with Turkey, a country with which China seeks closer relations but where public and official sentiment is highly critical of Chinas treatment of the ethnically-related Uighurs. To control this potentially chaotic situation and to manage Sino-Russian competition for influence, China launched the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), which includes Russia, China, the Central Asian republics, and a growing number of observers from around the region. China has pushed hard to keep the focus of the SCO on cooperative activities against the three evils of separatism, fundamentalism, and terrorism, a fear all the member states have in common. Along some of Xinjiangs most remote and sensitive borders are Tibet, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the disputed state of Kashmir any one of which could quickly embroil China in an international crisis. China also tested its all-weather friendship with Pakistan pressuring Islamabad to crackdown on Uighur militants seeking refuge in Pakistan. Pakistan reportedly has responded by sending a number of Uighur militants to China for prosecution. Its recent stepped up attacks on terrorist groups and especially the killing of Abdul Haq and more than a dozen other Uighur militants has among other things assuaged relations with China. The US intervention in Afghanistan in October 2001 introduced another variable of vulnerability for China with regard to Xinjiang. In the conflict that followed, global support for Al Qaeda drew in more militants to the region, including some Uighurs (as Abdul Haqs death proved) but it also changed the strategic landscape for China. The introduction of massive US forces into the region, and especially the use of bases such as Manas in Kyrgyzstan, raised visceral and long-standing fears of encirclement by a hostile US intent on dividing and Westernizing China. Beijing has put pressure on Central Asian neighbors to expel or severely limit any US military presence and has refused to allow US forces to use Chinese territory for staging or overflights in the war in Afghanistan. China is also working hard to enhance cooperation with its neighbors on energy exploration, exploitation, and transportation as a way of keeping the US and Russia from monopolizing Central Asias voluminous oil and natural gas resources. These competing interests, and the residual worry that the US and Russia seek to supplant or minimize Chinese influence in Central Asia will continue to contribute to Beijings neuralgia about assuring stability in its far Western extremity, even if the real terrorist threat to China has diminished. * Beijing is some 1,500 miles from Xinjiangs capital, Urumqi; Urumqi is nearly another 700 miles from Kashgar on the far Western border. By contrast, Kashgar is only 250 miles from Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan and 500 miles from Kabul.------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- ------ Dr. Clarke is an independent China consultant.

sont justement des bastions ou la reforme du hukou est indispensable. Des 2001, les petites villes, confrontees a la pression dun exode rural sans precedent, ont commence a modifier leurs methodes denregistrement des menages [en accordant des permis de residence temporaires, puis permanents]. Mais la reforme a plus de mal a se mettre en place dans les villes plus importantes [malgre des assouplissements] . Les pouvoirs publics redoutent en effet de declencher un afflux massif de population rurale dans des metropoles comme Pekin, Shanghai ou Canton. Le hukou ne sert a rien, sauf a creer des tracas Or les faits demontrent que le modele actuel de controle administratif de la population, fonde sur lenregistrement obligatoire du lieu de residence, nest daucune utilite. En dehors dopposer des obstacles aux generations futures et de leguer des tracas sans fin aux villes, le hukou na quasiment aucun effet [il nempeche plus les residents ruraux daller travailler en ville]. Il nuit meme a la bonne gestion des informations demographiques par la securite publique. En effet, il introduit de nombreuses erreurs dans la collecte des donnees [dans les statistiques, les migrants sont toujours decomptes comme population rurale]. Lexperience montre quil est souvent vain de se fixer des objectifs en matiere demographique. A Pekin, aucun des objectifs successifs de limitation de la population 8, 10, puis 18 millions na ete atteint. Lurbanisation, la creation de grandes metropoles et lintegration des villes et des campagnes tombent sous le sens. En 2006, laugmentation nette de la population pekinoise etait de 430 000 personnes (alors que laccroissement naturel de la population officiellement domiciliee dans la capitale est nul depuis plusieurs annees). En 2009, ce chiffre est passe a 650 000 habitants supplementaires. Leffet daimant de la metropole pekinoise va saccroitre. Cest une regle de lhistoire sociale que la seule volonte humaine ne peut inverser. Lurbanisation nest pas un fardeau pour les grandes cites chinoises. Cest au contraire un extraordinaire moteur de developpement economique et social pour lensemble du pays. Cest aussi une occasion historique exceptionnelle de democratisation et daccroissement des libertes individuelles. Pourquoi, face a la crise financiere mondiale, leconomie chinoise a-t-elle reussi a se singulariser, et meme a etre la premiere a donner des signes de sortie de crise, alors que sa structure economique, elle-meme en crise, na pas ete modifiee ? Ce nest pas grace a laction de certaines personnes ou organisations. Ce nest pas non plus parce que les Chinois sont particulierement doues. Non, cest parce que lurbanisation a fourni a la Chine une formidable occasion historique ! Les responsabilite s historiques doivent etre assumees. La liberalisation des conditions de domiciliation ne peut que permettre a la Chine de progresser davantage vers plus degalite et plus dharmonie. La tendance inverse aurait des consequences graves.

seus clientes nos Estados Unidos haviam parado totalmente de comprar. E ela ainda nao pode receber os produtos do vilarejo uma vez que seus estoques estao lotados com toalhas de mesa, guardanapos e fronhas com desenhos florais delicados, peixes multicoloridos e padroes geometricos elaborados."Quando as pessoas nao compram em Nova York, sentimos os efeitos no vilarejo aqui", disse Huong."Mesmo o maior e mais bem sucedido dos vilarejos artesaos esta sofrendo", disse Dan, como o vilarejo de Bat Trang, que e famoso por suas tigelas e vasos, simples e lustrosos. Esse vilarejo, proximo a Hanoi, que ja empregou 8.200 trabalhadores em 800 pequenos negocios, perdeu milhares de empregos, disse ela.Muitos outros estao com dificuldades por causa de uma falta de experiencia em manufatura ou marketing, da reducao de capital e tecnologia e das diferentes exigencias de importacao das nacoes consumidoras, disse Dan.Lien Mihn, funcionario senior do Ministerio da Agricultura, disse em junho que por causa do desenvolvimento descuidado e sem planejamento, 80% dos vilarejos artesaos nao tinham dinheiro para comprar o equipamento que precisavam.De certa forma, essas dificuldades refletem os desafios mais amplos que o Vietna enfrenta a medida que se adapta ao mercado internacional. Sua taxa de crescimento, que estava em media de 8% por ano, caiu este ano para cerca de 4,5% segundo algumas estimativas, a mais baixa em quase duas decadas.O Vietna sofreu bem menos durante a crise da economia asiatica de 1997, quando ainda era em grande parte isolado da economia mundial.Depois de anos de debate interno, o Vietna se juntou a Organizacao Mundial do Comercio em janeiro de 2007, um passo que exigiu revisoes de sua infraestrutura legal, sistema bancario e regulacoes que ainda estao causando problemas quando sao aplicadas.O Vietna ainda esta formulando sua identidade pos-guerra, e ha uma luta de forcas constante entre suas raizes culturais e a excitacao em relacao a um futuro moderno.Numa visita a Thuong Tin ha 13 anos, quando o capitalismo ainda era jovem no Vietna, Huong disse: "Eu explico para eles e explico para eles, deixem as plantacoes e trabalhem so no bordado. E la que voces ficarao ricos. Mas eles dizem: 'Somos fazendeiros. As plantacoes vem primeiro'."Embora seduzidos pela riqueza potencial, a maioria dos fazendeiros aqui continuaram a trabalhar em suas plantacoes, mesmo durante os anos de bonanca, e o ritmo das agulhas as vezes dava lugar as demandas sazonais do plantio e da colheita."A lavoura e a sobrevivencia, e como eu alimento minha familia", disse Truong. "Se voce trabalha na lavoura, tem comida suficiente para se alimentar."O bordado deu a ele uma mobilidade na escala social que se compara a emergencia do pais que deixou a pobreza da guerra e dos anos do pos-guerra.Quando ele sobe no patio sobre o telhado de sua nova casa de quatro andares, ele olha para uma selva urbana em miniatura que inclui tres casas grandes construidas por seus filhos, que tambem sao artesaos do bordado.Logo alem delas, os campos de arroz se estendem ate o horizonte, vicosos e imoveis enquanto os graos crescem. Logo estarao prontos, e as pessoas de Thuong Tin irao
