Cracks in China's Information Restriction Policy in Southern
Mongolia |
|
|
|
...
So how has the information
restriction policy been implemented in the IMAR? Essentially it
has meant a complete blockade of information exchange through
any media between the IMAR and the country of Mongolia. The aim
of this policy was to remove the influence of Mongolia in the
Southern Mongolian region. This particular dynamic started from
the earliest days of the IMAR and continues to the present. As a
result, most Southern Mongols do not even know who the President
of Mongolia is or anything about the situation in Mongolia, or
vice versa. One rather benign relaxation of the information
control policy was that beginning in the 1980`s, the restriction
on Mongol songs and music was relaxed somewhat. But even today,
it’s very difficult for Mongols to obtain access to distribution
rights and manufacture of musical and artistic media. One
consequence among many of these government social and
information control policies has been the marginalization of the

About my husband
Hada’s prison condition and health situation, he has been
frequently tortured by the prison guards and inmates; he has
been regularly placed under “solidarity confinement” and once as
long as 66 days; there is no TV, no newspaper available to him.
His health condition is deteriorating: he has serious digestive
system and nerve system problems that are not only untreated but
have worsened in the prison; recently he has felt severe leg
pain and deteriorating vision. June 20, this year, the prison
authorities took him to an unidentified hospital and examined
his health condition. He was put in handcuffs and shackles
during his hospital visit. The results of the medical
examination were not given either to me or my son or to Hada
himself. Every time when we visit him, we don’t hear about any
improvement of his prison condition. Only thing encouraged us to
live through this extreme hardship is that he has never given up
what he believes

Though China's northern region of
Inner Mongolia has not experienced the scale of protests and
unrest that have hit Xinjiang, and especially Tibet, the
government has been quietly detaining people accused of
separatism and harassing activists. "Recently the authorities
have been getting increasingly paranoid," Enhebatu Togochog of
the New York-based Southern Mongolian Human Rights Information
Centre told Reuters. "They are confiscating whatever they think
are weapons including Mongolian knives which are sold in
Mongolian stores solely as artwork," he added. "Many Mongols
traveling to Beijing have been treated as criminal suspects and
are not allowed to stay in hotels in Beijing." In March, police
arrested Naranbilig, who had campaigned against Han Chinese
migration to Inner Mongolia, and placed him under house arrest,
Togochog said. Two weeks prior to that another dissident,
Tsebegjab, was also put under house arrest
