MU5735 co-pilot suicide note leak

Professor Yuan Hongbing, a jurist living in Australia, revealed the inside story of the crash of China Eastern flight MU5735: According to information from people with conscience in civil aviation and in the public security system of civil aviation, the direct cause of the air crash was the suicide dive of co-pilot Zhang Zhengping.

Guangzhou and Kunming Airport air traffic control tower staff know about the whole process. 

Zhang Zhengping controlled the plane to dive straight down when the plane was cruising. Captain Yang Hongda may have hit the glass and fell into a coma. He woke up and regained the joystick to pull up the plane.

During the dive, Zhang Zhengping also shouted, "I'm going down, don't know if it's hell? Or heaven?"

The news also revealed that the internal public security of China Eastern Airlines found a suicide note from Zhang Zhengping. There are two main contents in the suicide note: 

Firstly, Zhang Zhengping accused China Eastern Airlines of being unfair to him. The pilots who had been meritorious for many years should have been treated at the highest level among the pilots, but were suppressed as co-pilots.

Secondly, Zhang Zhengping held the investment through relatives. Evergrande and other financial investment projects have all returned to zero due to the CCP’s economic downturn. The suicide note also mentioned that because Xi Jinping, a person who did not understand the economy at all, had corrupted the foundation of reform and opening up, he made the Chinese economy worse and worse. 

The news also said that the suicide note is currently listed as the highest confidentiality level by Wang Xiaohong. The first deputy director of CAAC and dozens of people who knew about the suicide note were warned by the police not to leak it. 

Zhang Zhengping, the co-pilot of the accident, was one of the earliest pilots of Yunnan Airlines. His original position was the highest level of Chinese passenger pilots, but now, due to various reasons, he was demoted to a junior pilot when he was about to retire.

The information about the Wuzhou air crash disclosed by conscientious people inside the civil aviation industry cannot be verified by the outside world at present. 

According to the surveillance video of the mine near the crash, the plane was almost head-down and plunged to the ground at a vertical angle. Aviation experts said that this was not in line with the general air trajectory after the plane crash. If the power is lost, the plane will also have a gliding angle, and it will not go straight down at this vertical angle. Experts say that this angle and posture should be artificially controlled.

Wearing a protective suit in Shanghai can take a Shanghai child away from parent

Image : Web Screenshot

Shanghai has set up a children's epidemic isolation camp. It is reported that the children in isolation and treatment ranged in age from a few months to two or three years old, and several children were placed in a hospital bed. 

The relevant hospital beds are welded by stainless steel pipes, and some children can stand independently on the stainless steel fence. There should be no loose bedding and pillows in the crib. Especially for low-month-old babies who cannot turn over by themselves, once they are covered with these textiles for a long time, it may cause suffocation and endanger their lives.

Multiple children in the same bed may form pressure on each other, which doubles the possibility of suffocation accidents. 

There are also children over two or three years old at the isolation and treatment site. These children have strong mobility and cannot be restrained by the fenced hospital beds. They may run around in the ward and harm those younger children. 

In addition to accidental injuries, prolonged separation of infants and young children from their caregivers can also have an impact on a baby's mental health. 

During the isolation and admission period, the original rhythms of infants and young children, such as coaxing to sleep, playing with company, and feeding with complementary foods, are disrupted, which may cause the child to have difficulty falling asleep and crying. 

For those babies who can already identify their parents, being separated from their parents can also cause them to have extreme fear of being abandoned by their parents, leaving serious psychological trauma. 

For parents, being unable to keep track of their children's health in a timely manner and not being able to accompany their children will also cause heavy mental stress. 

After the "China Philanthropist" magazine under the China News Agency published a report on the separation of children and their parents in Shanghai, the comment area was flooded with angry words. ——There is no government in the world that dares to do this to the people and children except the CCP! !

LT Vision: Forcibly separating infants and young children from their parents and isolating them separately is a terrible record created by Shanghai during this epidemic prevention that shocked the world. There have been no reports of such a phenomenon in any country before. 

Xia Xingfan: Under the news about the separation of mother and baby, I saw some netizens commented that "Shanghai is just like that". I want to say that this has nothing to do with Shanghai. As long as you decide to implement a one-size-fits-all approach, you will inevitably increase the number of layers. The citizens and residents of Shanghai are also common people, and no one can escape.

gil_haoyu: No matter what the purpose is in any situation, long-term or temporary, putting a few children in a bed and stacking quilts is a very high risk of suffocation and fracture.

Shanghai authority said parents infected with the epidemic can accompany their children in isolation and are criticized as "inhuman"

Reporter : Luo Tingting / Editor: Wen Hui / https://www.ntdtv.com/gb/2022/04/04/a103391462.html / Image : On 1 April 2022, a large number of internal photos of the "Infant and Toddler Isolation Point" in Jinshan District, Shanghai were posted online. (Network image synthesis)

Shanghai authorities forced the infected infants and young children to be separated from their parents for treatment, arousing public anger. However, Shanghai officials still insisted on 4 April 2022 that parents must be infected before they can accompany their children for isolation and treatment. Netizens denounced the authorities as "inhuman".

Shanghai Municipal Health Commissioner Wu Qianyu said at a press conference on the 4th that according to the principle of classified treatment, parents must be positive patients before they can live in the children's area to accompany and take care of their children and receive treatment together.

Wu Qianyu said that for children infected with the virus, if their family members do not meet the conditions of accompaniment, children under the age of 7 will be placed in public health centers for treatment; children or adolescents over 7 years old, as well as young children whose parents meet the conditions of accompaniment, are infected , they are mainly treated in centralized isolation points.

Netizens, who were concerned about the isolation of infected infants and young children in Shanghai expressed their anger, "May I ask you who are officials still have humanity." "Aren't the children who are positive and the adults who are negative still have to separate? If a one-year-old child is positive, the adults are negative. Forced to separate, not changed at all...too inhumane." "Why separate, as a negative mother, I would rather be touched by the baby and want to be with him."

Prior to this, in the evening of 1 April, an online video exposed the chaos at the Jinshan infant isolation point in Shanghai, arousing public attention. The video footage showed a large number of infants and toddlers being placed in a hall, with three infants and toddlers crammed into many cots, a newborn baby almost covering his face with a sheet, and another about one year old standing there crying.

A mother who accompanies her children to quarantine here said in a WeChat group that some babies at the quarantine site are only two years old, and some are just 58 days old; there are "200 children" "upstairs" alone but only 10 nurses care. Sanitation is extremely poor. Children do not wash their buttocks when they defecate, and some children do not have their diapers changed frequently, and their buttocks rot. The video was removed shortly after.

Ms. Zhao, a Shanghai citizen, was furious after seeing the video. She told NTDTV that she and her two-year-old daughter were diagnosed positive on 26 March, and her daughter was taken to the Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center alone on the 29th.

Ms. Zhao said, "When I saw this photo and video on the Internet, I went crazy. Before that, all the people were comforting me, saying that the hospital in Jinshan is the best place to take care of children in Shanghai, let me do not worry."

She could not help crying and said, "I may ask, who can see this photo without breaking down? The two-year-old child can't see his relatives when he opens his eyes, and there is no one to take care of him. I heard that there is no bathing there, and it has been It's been four days. My daughter is still wearing diapers. Who will wipe her butt? With so many children, the medical staff is not enough. You have to take my daughter away and leave it to my mother to take care of. I don't understand the city. What is the government thinking?"

Mainland Chinese media "China Philanthropist" quoted a Shanghai parent as saying that he was forced to separate from his one-year-old child, "Dozens of people in our parent group are in a similar situation, kneeling down to the doctor and begging, making countless complaints. Phone calls are useless, and many parents suffered much more mental torture during their diagnosis than Omicron.”

A Shanghai female citizen surnamed Zhao interviewed by Reuters said that she, her husband, and their two-and-a-half-year-old daughter had all tested positive. The doctor threatened to keep her daughter in the hospital by herself if she did not agree to send her to the Jinshan isolation point, while she was still sent to the quarantine cabin.

The doctor said that Shanghai's rule is that children must be sent to designated isolation points, while parents are sent to isolation centres and are not allowed to accompany their children.

Foreign nationals also suffer from brutal measures such as the separation of parents from infants and young children in Shanghai. Radio France Internationale reported that on 3 April the French Consulate General in Shanghai, on behalf of 22 of the 27 EU member states, as well as the consulate generals in Shanghai of non-EU countries such as Norway and Switzerland, jointly sent a letter to the Foreign Affairs Office of the Shanghai Municipal Government of the Communist Party of China putting forward six requirements.

The first requirement is that under no circumstances can parent and child be separated.

Thailand cancels pre-entry nucleic acid testing requirements, the number of tourists to Thailand has increased significantly

According to the latest epidemic prevention regulations of the Thai government, since 1 April 2022, Thailand has cancelled the requirement of nucleic acid testing for the covi within 72 hours before boarding for inbound passengers. Passengers only need to undergo one nucleic acid test after entering the country. This change has caused the number of international tourists to Thailand to increase significantly in recent days, from 6,000 to 7,000 per day before to 11,000 to 12,000.

According to the staff of Suvarnabhumi Airport,  the waiting time for the nucleic acid test result of the covi has been shortened to 3 to 4 hours. Inbound passengers do not need to stay overnight in a pre-booked quarantine hotel. As long as the test result is negative the tourist can leave the hotel for free activities, which also increases the attractiveness of traveling to Thailand.

Heavy! A new "anti-CCP group" is about to emerge! Xi Jinping pointed at several prominent figures in the Jiang family 


Various signs show that Xi Jinping has made the most serious political characterization of "Sun Lijun's political gang" - "anti-Party clique", and pointed to several prominent figures behind Sun Lijun's Jiang Zemin and Zeng Qinghong cliques.

On 23 March 2022, the Apollo Network once released signals from several major mouthpieces of the CCP, and judged that the struggle within the CCP was fierce and that there was a serious split and made an exclusive report, "The CCP is in chaos! Mouthpiece threat: will lose power! ".

The basis for this judgment is that "Guangming Daily" reprinted by "Xinhuanet" on March 22, "On the new road to take the exam, we must always maintain the unity of the party"; and on March 21, "People's Daily" published "The unity of the party is the key to taking the test well".

This judgment has now been further confirmed.

In the afternoon of 31 March, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection issued a notice that Fu Zhenghua, the former justice minister of the Communist Party of China, was expelled from the party and public office for serious violations of discipline and law. In the briefing, there is a statement worth noting, that is, "endangering the centralization and unity of the party". In the two articles published by the mouthpiece of the CCP mentioned above, both mentioned "centralization and reunification" about 10 times. In the article of "Xinhuanet", he quoted Xi Jinping as saying, "It is the life of the party to speak clearly about politics and to ensure the unity and centralization of the Party (CCP)." In other words, these articles by the mouthpiece of the CCP are likely to be in line with the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection's briefing on Fu Zhenghua. So would a former CCP justice minister trigger such a big move by the mouthpiece of the CCP? Obviously not!

Regarding Sun Lijun, the main figure of "Sun Lijun's political gang", the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection criticized him in the bulletin "to achieve personal political goals, use unscrupulous means, manipulate power, and create gangs and cultivation within the party. Individual forces, forming interest groups, ganging up to control key departments, seriously undermining the unity and unity of the party, and seriously endangering political security.”
 
In contrast, Sun Lijun "severely undermined the unity and unity of the Party", while Fu Zhenghua "endangered the unity and unity of the Party". These two charges have a large weight in the two's briefings, and they are also important political characterizations. Of course, Sun Lijun's charges are more serious than Fu Zhenghua's.

Combined with the article published by the People's Daily on 21 March, "Party unity and unity is the key to taking the test well", there is such a description, "In response to Zhang Guotao's splitting the Red Army and establishing a separate "Central", the party is undermined. a serious mistake of unity".

Sun Lijun is "severely undermining the unity and unity of the party", while Zhang Guotao is "destroying the unity and unity of the party", Sun Lijun is actually more "serious" than Zhang Guotao.

It can be concluded from this that the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection has equated the "Sun Lijun political gang" with the "Zhang Guotao" of the year! In other words, the CCP's political characterization of the "Sun Lijun political gang" is an "anti-party group" in the history of the CCP!

So, can Sun Lijun, a small deputy minister of the Ministry of Public Security, be equated with this crime? Obviously not possible, Xi Jinping is really pointing to the political forces behind Sun Lijun, that is, the major figures of Jiang Zemin and Zeng Qinghong Group. The struggle against Sun Lijun and the forces behind it has been regarded by Xi Jinping as a new line struggle.

Earlier this year, Xi Jinping's special action against the "Sun Lijun political gang" also proved this point again.

In January 2022, the Ministry of Public Security of the Communist Party of China held a special meeting, emphasizing that the residual poison of the "political gang" of former Deputy Minister of Public Security Sun Lijun will be completely eliminated, and a special work leading group has been established in this regard. The Ministry of Public Security of the Communist Party of China said in a statement that Sun Lijun's gang "seriously undermined the unity and unity of the party and endangered the political security of the party and the country..." and that public security organs at all levels should set up corresponding leading and working agencies as soon as possible to ensure "the eradication of poisons" and "work for the best results".

This is the first time since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China that the Ministry of Public Security has established leadership and working organizations in the Ministry of Public Security and public security organs at all levels for the purpose of "cleaning up the poison".

Abandoning Xi Jinping and turning to Sun Lijun, experts reveal the inside story of Fu Zhenghua's jumping off the boat

The CCP official recently announced that in the "double-opened" notification of former Minister of Justice Fu Zhenghua, the charge of "participating in Sun Lijun's political gang" attracted public attention. Experts believe that the inside story behind Fu Zhenghua, who was at the ministerial level, went from joining Xi Jinping to capture Zhou Yongkang to "jumping over" to join Sun Lijun at the deputy ministerial level.

On 31 March, the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection of the Communist Party of China announced that Fu Zhenghua was "double-opened" in the notice, which disclosed at least 9 "serious crimes" of Fu Zhenghua, and the wording was particularly severe. These include: extremely inflated political ambitions, extremely despicable political conduct, long-term friendship with many "political liars", participation in Sun Lijun's political gang, and so on.

Among them, "participating in Sun Lijun's political gang" most puzzled the outside world. Because Fu Zhenghua was the Minister of Justice at the ministerial level and the former Executive Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Public Security before he was sacked, while Sun Lijun was only a "renunciation" to the Ministry of Public Security and was only promoted to the Deputy Minister level four years ago.

Experts analyzed that, despite the disparity in the qualifications of the two sides, Fu Zhenghua was willing to join Sun Lijun's "political gang". The main reason should be that the interests of both sides were tied together. Fu Zhenghua took a fancy to the power resources behind Sun Lijun, or at least Fu Zhenghua believed in it. Sun Lijun possesses this "energy".

Bearing the blood debt together and backing the anti-Xi alliance

Political commentator Wang Youqun wrote an article in The Epoch Times on 2 April and analyzed that after Jiang Zemin launched the persecution of Falun Gong on 20 July 1999, the Central 610 Office was the highest commander-in-chief in the whole country dedicated to persecuting Falun Gong. Director, the blood of Falun Gong practitioners is on their hands, and the blood debt they bear together binds them together, making them form a community of interests where "one prosper and one loses".

Yokogawa, an expert on China issues, analyzed in a video program a few days ago that Fu Zhenghua served as the director of the Central "610" from 2015 to 2018, and Sun Lijun served as the deputy director of the Central "610" after him, not only much later, but also at least half a level lower.

Yokogawa said that from the above analysis, Fu Zhenghua had no reason to go to Sun Lijun. Thus a most bizarre combination emerges: a high-level thug who sits in an important position in the party's dictatorship machine, who is unfaithful to Xi Jinping, joins a gang of his lower-level officials.

He said that if this allegation is true, the most reasonable explanation is that Sun Lijun was given a special task to recruit personnel for a specific power group or faction, and Fu Zhenghua did not actually rely on Sun Lijun, but the forces behind Sun Lijun. 

According to previous public reports, Fu Zhenghua was originally regarded as Zhou Yongkang, the former secretary of the Central Political and Legal Committee. Later, when Xi Jinping came to power, Fu Zhenghua turned to Xi Jinping and was responsible for investigating Zhou Yongkang, who has always been considered to be Jiang Zemin's cronies.

Yokogawa's analysis shows that Fu Zhenghua is bad, but he is not necessarily stupid. It can be seen from the quick turn to turn to Xi Jinping to investigate Zhou Yongkang. Do not hesitate to betray the original owner to join the new owner.

Yokogawa believes that the forces represented by Sun Lijun are likely to be the newly formed anti-Xi alliance under the banner of the Jiang faction (not necessarily Jiang himself, but related to Jiang's policies, interests, and organization of the remaining party).

Wang Youqun: Sun Lijun is a key figure in the Jiang faction

According to Wang Youqun's analysis, Sun Lijun's direct backstage boss is Meng Jianzhu, while Meng Jianzhu's backstage bosses are Jiang Zemin and Zeng Qinghong. The trinity of Meng, Zeng and Jiang is inseparable. Therefore, Sun Lijun's backstage boss is not only Meng Jianzhu, but also Zeng Hejiang. The so-called "Sun Lijun political gang" is actually a "political gang" supported by Meng, Zeng and Jiang.

Wang Youqun believes that Jiang Zemin and Zeng Qinghong have been arranging people who can not only continue their policy of persecuting Falun Gong, but also prevent their heinous crimes from being liquidated. However, man is not as good as God. The people Jiang and Zeng arranged, such as Bo Xilai, former member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China and secretary of the Chongqing Municipal Party Committee, and Sun Zhengcai, former member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China and secretary of the Chongqing Municipal Party Committee, were imprisoned by Xi Jinping one by one.

Wang Youqun analyzed that just as Jiang and Zeng were depressed, a "new political star" rose up, and he was Sun Lijun. Sun came from Jiang and Zeng's home base - Shanghai. In his early years, he was an important confidant of Jiang and Zeng and the "English Secretary" of Shanghai Mayor Han Zheng.

Radio Free Asia's "Night Talks on Zhongnanhai" column not long ago quoted a source in Shanghai as saying that the investigation by the special leading group to clear Sun Lijun's political gang led by Wang Xiaohong, secretary of the Party Committee of the Ministry of Public Security and Executive Vice Minister of the Communist Party of China, has brought the current Politburo Standing Committee Member and Vice Premier of the State Council to the investigation. Han Zheng also pulled in. It is said that when Sun Lijun was transferred from Shanghai to the Ministry of Public Security, it was the joint efforts of then Shanghai Mayor Han Zheng and Meng Jianzhu.

Electronic foundry town Kunshan lockdown may impact the electronic chain

Reporters :  Lin Yutang and Zhang Yuanting / https://www.ntdtv.com/gb/2022/04/04/a103391424.html

Kunshan City, Jiangsu Province has upgraded its epidemic prevention measures from the 2nd, which is equivalent to a closed city. Kunshan is an important electronic foundry town, and Taiwanese companies such as AUO and Compal have settled here. The closure of Kunshan City has affected the shipment of electronic products such as TVs and mobile phones.

People in Kunshan said, "Kunshan is closed, and all (vehicles are blocked) on the highway. Just now, the police car came and shouted, 'Turn around', there is no way out when you wait on the top. Where are you going? Where are you going now?"

The epidemic in mainland China is heating up, and Kunshan, an important town for Taiwanese businessmen, suddenly upgraded its epidemic prevention measures. From 2 to 6 April, companies were required to take turns to reduce production, work from home, and control foreign traffic, which is equivalent to a city closure. Many Taiwanese companies, including Nandian, Nanya, Taiwan Optoelectronics, Xinxing, and many other Kunshan factories, have successively announced that they will temporarily suspend work in accordance with local policies, or adopt closed-loop personnel scheduling management.

People in Kunshan said, "There is no car, no people. After the nucleic acid is done today, it is not allowed to go out."

Kunshan is an important production centre for panel, PCB, electronic foundry, and notebook components. The panel manufacturer AUO, as well as the electronic foundry manufacturers Compal, Pegatron, and Wistron all have factories in Kunshan. Pegatron's Kunshan factory assists in iPhone production and also manufactures other 3C electronic products. AUO said that it is concerned about the local official traffic control measures, which will not be affected for the time being. Wistron's Kunshan plant mainly produces lots of small and medium-sized module products, which account for a small proportion of overall revenue and have little impact on research and judgment. Compal's Kunshan plant is mainly a notebook OEM, and shipments may be affected by logistics and transportation, and the Chongqing plant will be deployed to support production capacity. Industry insiders are worried that Kunshan is an important hub for the electronics industry, and the lockdown of Kunshan will have a greater impact on the global electronics industry than the lockdown of Shanghai.

Shanghai elderly underwent nucleic acid test, sudden heart attack, medical treatment delayed, dead

Reporters : Chen Jie, Li Shanshan and Li Peiling / https://www.ntdtv.com/gb/2022/04/04/a103391453.html

Recently, the number of people infected with the virus in Shanghai has soared, and the strict lockdown measures have caused great public grievances. Some people revealed to this station that her 89-year-old mother went out for nucleic acid testing and suffered a heart attack. Later, she died due to delayed medical treatment. She denounced the authorities for disregarding people's lives.

Shanghai citizen Ms. Zhang told NTDTV that at night of 21 March, her mother was woken up in her sleep for a nucleic acid test. She was nervous and the weather was cold, and she suffered a heart attack as soon as she went out.

Ms. Zhang narrated, "It was very cold in Shanghai that day, with cold air and rain. My mother was 88 years old, and she was 89 years old. He came to inform him at 8:30 that the old man was sleeping, and it might take three days to get dressed and go out again. Forty minutes, at this time, I was nervous and frightened, it was cold when I went out, my heart suddenly went wrong, and I fell to the ground all of a sudden."

Zhang's mother eventually died due to delays in seeking medical attention.

Ms. Zhang added, "I was sent to that designated hospital, but they refused to accept it. (Said) it was closed, and the ambulance waited for half an hour to arrive. Later, it was taken to the Central Hospital of Yangpu District. He said that your neighborhood committee coordinated something. Later, they let her in and rescued her for half an hour. You said that this heart problem collapsed all at once. After such a long time, do you think it can be saved?"

She said that the designated hospital was closed and charged, and the local neighborhood committee should know about it, but there was no announcement. On the second day after her mother's death, she also said that she had brought them good news and that she could go out for funerals, which made her angry.

Ms. Zhang said, "He came in and said, and told us the good news. We will let you go tomorrow. It was originally 14 days, but this happened later. The door was opened in 10 days, and you can go to the funeral yourself. There is nothing we can do, so that Tian Tian should not be able to respond, and that the ground will not work. None of them have a sincere apology, none of them."

Ms. Zhang said that the epidemic prevention policy of the Shanghai authorities caused the epidemic to get out of control.

She added, "In exchange for these leaders, they have no ability to coordinate and adapt, and they are messed up and make a mess. When the nucleic acid is bombarded with people, there is no one meter or two meters apart. There is no such thing. It's all banging together, it's a mess."

Ms. Zhang broke down in tears at the end. She denounced the authorities for reaching the target and ignoring the lives of the people.

Ms. Zhang said, "You are just protecting your black hat. For that indicator, the lives of the common people are not your life. Just a word of yours will be fine. For our family, if you go out to do nucleic acid alone, you will fall behind. On the ground, what do you tell us to think, how can we accept it."

Recently, a nurse at Shanghai Dongfang Hospital suffered from an asthma attack. She was rejected by the hospital and had to be transferred to another hospital. Later, she lost her life due to delay. In addition, an elderly man suffered an asthma attack and died after emergency doctors refused to lend a defibrillator.

Sun Chunlan shouts covid to be cleared, the army medical team is stationed in Shanghai, and all members of Shanghai are playing the political card

Reporters : Li Lan, Hong Ning, Luo Ya / https://www.ntdtv.com/gb/2022/04/05/a103391998.html

According to official reports, Shanghai reported 13,354 new local infections on 4 April 2022. The authorities insisted on mandatory control measures, making this big city with a population of 26 million into chaos.

The Shanghai authorities announced at the end of last month that the city would be closed in stages with the Huangpu River as the boundary, and 4 April was supposed to be the last day of the lockdown. However, after Sun Chunlan, the vice premier of the State Council in charge of epidemic prevention, arrived in Shanghai on the 2nd, she stressed the need to adhere to the "zero-covid" policy. Immediately, the Shanghai government announced that the city is conducting nucleic acid testing on the 4th.

Mainland media reported that there are currently about 40,000 medical and nursing staff from 15 provinces in China, including more than 2,000 medical personnel formed by the Chinese military. A batch of medical teams from other places will enter the laboratory to detect nucleic acid; a batch will enter the square cabin hospital; and some personnel will conduct nucleic acid sampling.

However, there was a video that the medical team from other places who conducted nucleic acid sampling in Pujin Street, Minhang District, Shanghai, had no guaranteed basic needs; the street was also full of complaints, and both sides were full of grievances.

Pujin Street, Minhang District, Shanghai, said, "You said that you worked for 12 hours. I have also worked in the front line, and I am also a front line person. You know, the neighborhood committee is constantly fighting for more than 20 hours a day."

A team leader of a medical team supporting Shanghai from a certain field said, "We are here to support. Our girls' bodies (protective clothing) are all dirty and broken, and they may be infected. You don't even give us anything for changing defenses. From 6 in the morning until now, we haven't had a sip of water so far."

The real conditions of the temporary isolation point set up in Shanghai are staggering. This is the situation at a certain isolation point between Shanghai's prosperous Binjiang Avenue and Minsheng Road. The people who were pulled into isolation took pictures of the internal conditions.

This is the Nanhui Fangcang, no one is coordinating and managing it. The materials sent are piled up there, and the patients are asked to snatch them by themselves.

Nanhui Fangcai patient said, "They are all rushing. I can't squeeze in and get it. Expose, we must expose it. This is Nanhui Fangcang."

The whole city of Shanghai was locked down and hundreds of thousands of tons of materials were shipped to Shanghai.

The authorities publicized that the daily supplies of residents would be delivered to their homes, and they also launched so-called "vegetable buses" to ensure the dining table of 26 million citizens. Hours, no one answered.

Truck driver lamented, "This is the situation in Shanghai. We are taking our lives, not to mention whether this (donated) thing is valuable or not. I am taking my life to support it now. But now I have no water or food. I have to eat, now dozens of hours have passed."

A surprising amount of vegetables were thrown on the road.

The person in charge of a wholesale market in Xuhui District, Shanghai said, "This is mobilized by the government department, and we can't do anything about it. Now people have to be quarantined and are not allowed to come in. Now the food at Bridge 8 is rotten in the market. (circulation) is not allowed.”

Gao Ling (pseudonym), a citizen of Pudong, Shanghai, said, "Everyone is very tired, from top to bottom. The common people must have complaints in order to eat, but there is no supply. The leaders must think carefully before making a decision. Saying on TV 'sufficient supply, don't worry', we have no vegetables for three days, you want us not to worry, maybe, not possible."

A phone recording of a person in charge of the Shanghai CDC recently leaked out, telling the truth about Shanghai's epidemic prevention.

A person in charge of the Shanghai CDC said, "I told him (leader) not to transfer people with mild symptoms and asymptomatic symptoms, but to isolate them at home. I have mentioned it N times, does anyone listen? Our professional institutions will also be arrested. It's crazy, no one listens to what the professionals say, and now this disease has become a political disease."

On 4 April, Sun Chunlan, who inspected the epidemic prevention in Shanghai, once again stated that the goal of social clearance should be achieved in the shortest possible time.

Cultural Revolution-style epidemic prevention, Shanghai volunteers forcibly break into residential houses, arrest people and delete posts

Reporters : Zhao Fenghua and Rong Yu / https://www.ntdtv.com/gb/2022/04/05/a103392046.html / Image : Video Screenshot


Volunteers in Shanghai forced their way into residential houses under the pretext of epidemic prevention, forcing residents to delete posts, and even taking people away for quarantine. Netizens exclaimed: They used to be called "Red Guards" but now they are called "Volunteers"!


Recently, some Shanghai epidemic prevention volunteers forcibly broke into residential houses and forced residents to delete posts. The video showed a group of volunteers in red vests suddenly appearing on the doorstep of a resident.

Shanghai resident: What happened?

Volunteer with cigarette in hand: What did you post online?

Shanghai resident: We didn't publish it, we didn't publish it online.

When the resident denied it, some volunteers said they were looking for the landlord.

Shanghai resident: Yes, you can find a landlord.

At this time, a volunteer waved his hand and said that he wanted to go in and have a look.

Shanghai resident: Hey, hey, if you dare to come in, I'll call the police right away!

However, not only were the volunteers not afraid of the public calling the police, they also began to intimidate the resident.

Shanghai epidemic prevention volunteers: You report! You report! You report!

The group of volunteers immediately began to rush to the residents' homes.

Shanghai resident: Hey, hey, you hit someone! You hit someone! I'll call the police right away!


The volunteers broke into the residents' homes.

Shanghai epidemic prevention volunteer: Three rooms, how can there be four?

Shanghai resident: Where are you from?

Which volunteer? Where's the volunteer?

Your surname?

Shanghai epidemic prevention volunteer: Why did you ask my surname?


Shanghai resident: Why are you looking for me?

Then, the volunteers asked the resident what they were doing online.

A young volunteer approached the resident with a mobile phone.

Shanghai resident: I don't know this, I don't know.

Shanghai epidemic prevention volunteer: You two are not, it is him now.

Shanghai resident: That's me, what's wrong?

"It's me, it's me, it's me, I admit."

Another video shows that members of a neighborhood committee in a certain area of ​​Shanghai forced people to do nucleic acid tests, and arrested people if they did not go.

A member of the Shanghai Neighborhood Committee: This corridor will be ready for nucleic acid test soon. Let me tell you.

Shanghai resident: It's very clear, okay? You've already been here, and we have legitimate reasons. These are all within the reasonable and legitimate scope.

Shanghai Neighborhood Committee staff: On the basis of the order that you are suspected of refusing to implement the "State of Emergency" decision, you are hereby summoned to a certain neighborhood committee in Jiuting Town, Songjiang District, Shanghai for questioning before 12 pm on 4 April 2022.

Shanghai Neighborhood Committee member: We will take it away in accordance with the law.

When they tried to take the man from the home, they saw a child crying. Later, the woman was forcibly escorted into a police car for nucleic acid testing.

Others were beaten and kicked, forcibly taken away and quarantined, and their luggage was thrown into the car.

The authorities' quarantine and blockade policy continued to extend. After 14 days of quarantine, people were asked to continue to quarantine for 14 days, and they protested angrily upstairs.

People: Fourteen days, fourteen days!

The residents of the other building also lost control of their emotions and burst into tears due to the long-term blockade.

Shanghai epidemic worsens, 50,000 police force out, Xi Jinping deploys troops late at night to maintain stability

The epidemic situation in Shanghai continued to deteriorate, and the CCP authorities once again took extreme measures to control and maintain stability. According to the CCP's official media, all 50,000 police forces in Shanghai have been dispatched. At the same time, Xi Jinping mobilized a large number of soldiers and armed police to arrive in Shanghai late at night. In addition to fighting the epidemic, they need to "maintain stability".

The Xinhua News Agency of the Communist Party of China reported on 4 April that at the press conference on the prevention and control of the epidemic in Shanghai held on the same day, Zhang Yahong, deputy secretary of the Party Committee and deputy director of the Shanghai Public Security Bureau, said that since the current round of the epidemic, all 50,000 public security police officers in Shanghai have been on duty to carry out "social prevention and control, community prevention and control and traffic management".

At the same time, the Shanghai police stationed more than 600 police officers in various cabin hospitals. Zhang Yahong also said that the Shanghai police "strictly do a good job of community closure and control", and through the formation of grid inspection teams, the implementation of "no movement, staying at home" and so on.

Not only that, the authorities also dispatched a large number of soldiers and armed police to station in Shanghai late at night.

According to a report by Radio Free Asia, Ms. Feng, a resident near the airport, revealed that there were constant sounds of large planes taking off and landing at night of 3 April, and a large number of armed police arrived in Shanghai and put themselves on guard. Armed police stand guard with guns to prevent residents from climbing over the wall or going out at will.

The CCP Military Daily also confirmed the above news. The People's Liberation Army Daily reported on the 3rd that the army had recruited more than 2,000 medical personnel to support Shanghai's epidemic prevention. The medical forces selected this time come from 7 medical units belonging to the Army, Navy and Joint Logistics Support Force.

At night of 3 April, some netizens photographed the CCP military transport plane "Y-20" landing at Shanghai Hongqiao Airport. Judging from the videos published on the Internet, multiple Y-20s arrived at Hongqiao Airport late at night.

In addition to mobilizing the army and police to be stationed in Shanghai, the CCP official said that 38,000 medical personnel have been stationed in Shanghai from 15 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities.

On the 3rd, the CCP official media reported that thousands of medical staff from Wuhan, Tianjin, Jiangxi, Shandong and other places brought medical supplies and arrived in Shanghai by 10 high-speed trains. Starting in the evening, the medical teams from Hainan, Guangdong, Sichuan and Hunan took 9 chartered flights to carry supplies and arrived at Shanghai Pudong Airport one after another.

According to local online sources in Shanghai, there are probably as many as 100,000 people supporting Shanghai.

At the same time, Sun Chunlan, Vice Premier of the State Council of the Communist Party of China, went to Shanghai on the 2nd to convey the tough epidemic prevention instructions from the Beijing authorities. Sun Chunlan said that she insisted on "dynamic clearing" and stepped up the promotion of "everything that should be inspected, everything that should be collected, everything that should be separated, and everything that should be treated."

On the 4th, Sun Chunlan once again emphasized that it is necessary to thoroughly implement Xi Jinping's "important instructions", "to ensure that no one household is missed, no one is left behind, and to stay at home before receiving a notice for inspection", and strive to do it in the shortest time possible to realize the goal of social cleanup.

According to the National Health Commission of the Communist Party of China on 1 April, the national epidemic has spread to 29 provinces, among which Jilin Province and Shanghai are particularly serious, and the number of confirmed cases in Shanghai is still growing rapidly.

However, from the perspective of Shanghai's epidemic prevention and control measures, there are contradictions. Officials in Shanghai initially denied the rumors of the closure of the city. However, it was suddenly announced on the evening of 27 March that the entire city of Shanghai was bounded by the Huangpu River, and Pudong and Puxi were successively divided and controlled in stages. On 31 March, the more stringent "global static management" was used. So far, Shanghai is still under full lockdown.

In this regard, some experts have analyzed that the official inconsistent response measures to the epidemic reflect the political meaning of fierce infighting at the top.

The lockdown of Shanghai reflects the political crushing of the Shanghai Gang

The Voice of America recently quoted Zheng Xuguang, a political commentator, as saying that the closure of Shanghai actually deeply reflects the political crushing of the Shanghai Gang. Zheng Xuguang said that Shanghai has never said the word "lockdown", and Xi Jinping has never given up "clearing". Political leadership is the fatal injury to China's epidemic prevention.

Therefore, in order to block the mouth of the opposition within the party and to clear the way for a successful re-election at the 20th National Congress, Shanghai must be cleared.

Bucha massacre shocks the world, the West will impose more sanctions, Beijing is silent


Ukrainian authorities have accused Russian forces for committing a massacre in a town near Kyiv. The international community reacted strongly, and countries such as Europe and the United States said they would impose a new round of sanctions on Russia. The CCP authorities continue to remain silent.

The Ukrainian army announced on Saturday that it had regained control of the entire Kyiv region, however, in some of the recaptured towns, there were horrific scenes.

In the small town of Bucha, more than 30 km from the centre of Kyiv, the bodies of civilians can be seen everywhere on the road. Some civilians had their hands tied and were shot in the back of the head, suspected of being executed. Some civilians were shot and killed on the road while riding their bicycles. A mass grave was also found near a church, with the hands and feet of the victims exposed.

During the month of Russian occupation, more than 300 civilians were killed, the town mayor said.

On Monday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy came to Bucha to inspect the local situation.

Zelensky declares, "This is a war crime and will be recognized by the world as genocide."

Bucha resident said, "I went to the street 200 m away from here, and there were 12 killed people lying on the ground. They were young civilians."

Some citizens said that during the Russian occupation, they searched houses, and if civilians were found to have "anti-Russian messages" on their mobile phones, they might be dragged out and executed.

Zelenskyy said, "We know that thousands of people have been killed or abused, people have broken legs, women have been raped, children have been killed."

Such tragedies did not just happen in Bucha. Ukraine's top prosecutor said 410 bodies had been found in towns near Kyiv.

US President Joe Biden said, "What happened in Bucha was intolerable, everyone saw it."

Biden said on Monday he would tighten sanctions on Russia and called for a war crimes trial against Putin.

Biden added, "You may remember that when I said Putin was a war criminal, some people criticized me. Now we have seen what happened to Bucha and it has confirmed that he is a war criminal."

European countries have also condemned Russia.

French President Emmanuel Macron said, "We are extremely shocked and condemn in the strongest terms."

German Chancellor Schultz said, "President Putin and his supporters will suffer the consequences."

British Foreign Secretary Truss emphasized, "We need to announce a new round of tough sanctions. The reality is that money is still flowing into Putin's war machine from the West and this must stop."

Germany also announced on Monday that it would expel 40 Russian diplomats.

Russia denies the accusation of murdering civilians and says the "Bucha Massacre" was directed and staged by Ukraine for Western media.

Beijing has remained silent on the incident.

After the Russian army invaded Ukraine on 24 February, it was stubbornly resisted by the Ukrainian army. The Russian army changed its plan a few days ago, giving up the capture of Kyiv, and instead focused on consolidating the occupied area of ​​​​the Donbass in eastern Ukraine, while continuing to bomb Mariupol, Odessa and other southern port cities.

Zelenskyy said he continued to seek negotiations with Russia but acknowledged that the current situation had become more difficult.

Russia's indiscriminate usage of cluster munitions two dozen times, "torture chamber" in Ukraine

UN undersecretary-general for political and peacebuilding affairs, Rosemary DiCarlo told the meeting of "credible" claims Russia has used indiscriminate cluster munitions two dozen times in populated parts of Ukraine.

She said, "OHCHR has received credible allegations that Russian forces have used cluster munitions in populated areas at least 24 times."

She said the global body was "gravely concerned by the persistent use of explosive weapons with a wide impact area," saying such weapons are causing the most civilian casualties in the war.

During a visit on Monday to Bucha, where AFP counted 20 bodies on a single street, he accused Russia of "war crimes" and attempted "genocide" and asked Europe to apply the "most severe pressure".  

The head of NATO, meanwhile, warned that Russia is regrouping its forces in order to deploy them to eastern and southern Ukraine for a "crucial phase of the war," and said that more "atrocities" may come to light as Russian troops continue to pull back in the north.

"When and if they withdraw their troops and Ukrainian troops take over, I'm afraid they will see more mass graves, more atrocities and more examples of of war crimes," NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said.

Ukrainian officials said the bodies of at least 410 civilians have been found in towns around Kyiv that were recaptured from Russian forces and that a "torture chamber" was discovered in the town called Bucha, from which some of the grimmest details have emerged.

Police and other investigators walked the silent streets of Bucha on Tuesday, taking notes on bodies that residents showed them. Survivors who hid in their homes during the monthlong Russian occupation of the town, many of them past middle age, wandered past charred tanks and jagged window panes with plastic bags of food and other humanitarian aid. Red Cross workers checked in on intact homes.
