lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, China is a great nation and has been a great civilisation, but its name and standing are diminished by its human rights abuses. I want the Chinese to listen to the words of my colleagues and to this resolution on religious freedom. I want them to release the Catholics and Christians in prison. I want them to bring justice to the Muslims, the Uigurs in Xinjiang. I want them to bring justice to the Tibetans and withdraw their threat of imposing their Panchen Lama. I want them to stop the abuse of psychiatry. I want them to listen to the voice of Miss Fen Yang, arrested when visiting friends and sentenced without trial to two years in a female labour camp, where she is abused and brainwashed. I want them to listen to the mother of Wang Nan, who died in Tiananmen Square. Her mother was arrested for receiving a parcel of T-shirts. Those are the abuses that we cannot tolerate. Only if China listens, acts and puts an end to these abuses will it earn and deserve our respect."@en1
