Empty space is nothing - Liu Xiabo


Recently, Liu Xiabo was awarded with the nobel peace prize for standing up against the chinese military. Sadly he was arraated for 11 years. The prize was put on an empty chair, for Xiabo nor his family could leave the county to accept the prize. Xiabo was put into jail to be silenced by the chinese military, but instead the empty chair has symbolized the human rights abuse in China

I think that Xiabo was right to stand up against the military, but I think that things went better for him than he planned. Anyway now that the world knows about the abuses that are happening in China, the chinese military is struggling with the unwanted attention. I think that they have two options. First, they should improve the conditions and make the world happy, or they could, cover up better and riskbeing caught and get into BIG trouble.

Some people think that Liu Xiabo was foolish to do such a risky thing, he could have gotten killed! But with his progress people see what is happening in China, we can help to make sure that nothing like this happens ever again.
