Democracy activists in Vietnam Jailed
Thursday, January 21, 2010 7:28:32 AM
These days it seems like the Chinese and Vietnamese governments are moving in the same direction. Away from democratic thoughts and in the direction of letting the communist parties take more control of the Citizens in their countries.
Both countries have seen a strong economic growth over the last decade, and this has maybe led their governments to the thoughts that they are the reason for the growth and therefore they see them as being right in controlling any criticism of what they are doing.
Unfortunately the following 4 democracy activists have been sentenced to prison this week:
They were initially charged with spreading anti-government propaganda.
But early last month, state prosecutors decided to bring more serious charges against them.
They were all convicted of "activities aimed at subverting the people's administration".
This is perhaps the harshest punishment against democracy campaigners in recent years.
I think this is a major drawback for the people in Vietnam and their strive for prosperity, peace and freedom. Any government that tries to control the thoughts of their Citizens are definitely not serving them and does not have a right to rule for them.

Unfortunately the following 4 democracy activists have been sentenced to prison this week:
- Human rights lawyer Le Cong Dinh, of trying to overthrow the Communist government. (5yrs)
- internet entrepreneur Tran Huynh Duy Thuc (16yrs)
- Nguyen Tien Trung (7yrs)
- Le Thang Long (5yrs)
They were initially charged with spreading anti-government propaganda.

I am happy to learn more about what is right and what is wrong. As you can see from some other of my Blog entries, I am especially concerned about free speech.
Surely the Communist parties in Vietnam and China have done a lot to improve the standard of Living in their countries the last 20 years. This is good work.
In most western countries, the freedom of speech has been the key essence in achieving prosperity, which is why I think it is a key element which all people around the world should have a right to participate with.
I think you have a right to be proud of Vietnam, but is it only due to the red flag or is it the people of Vietnam which makes it such a nice Country?

I just know Vietnam is standing on top 5 in Happy Planet Index (HPI) in the World . That's ennough , sir ? I don't need a rich country , I need a feaceful country with the nice security .
The Free speech ... ok , it may be right in your country and all democrator in your country but not in Vietnam . Democrators in Vietnam aren't like , they're democratic impostors only .
Belive me , you're upholding a wrong thing . My English is so bad , I can't talk to you how , I hope you would come to Vietnam for looking our peaceful live to day and looking back your knowledge about our country .
Dear sir !
