Dear Mr. Smith,

When I read today's news February 15,2006 by reporter  TOM ZELLER Jr.
Quote "House Member criticizes Internet Co., for Practices in China."

 I am very much bothered by the above news. It looks that your intension in this issue is just try to steal the spot light regardless the real issue.

The companies like Cisco Google Microsoft and Yahoo are trying to observe the law legislated by local Chinese party and executed by the government in China. "sickening collaboration with Chinese government and for decapitating the voice of the...." quoting your words, they are simply trying to observe the local law. What you are trying to do is encouraging companies disobey what they are required to do. America is governed by the rules of law and no one is above the law and no one is under the law. Yet, being an American citizen living in California, I personally witness the government were to abuse the power and put the law into their own hand. The same is truth that I have been following the law but no other choice by doing what DHS requires me to do. The DHS case in its own nature is worse than violating the basic human right. What you emphasized is personal freedom of expression in the Internet blogging and has not constituted the hardship of actual living.  All government official including you are paid with tax money and should help those companies in need for further development and expansion. Your personal endeavor in criticizing those companies to disregard their duty to observe the local law is stepping out of line. That constitutes the interference into the severity of a foreign country.

Take Muir Lodge for example. If ML failed in submiting copies of guests registration card staying in the motel, DHS would shut down motel operation. The same apply to those big 4 companies.  Should they dare to refuse taking the order from government in China, they might face consequencies to close down their business. Yahoo Chairman and Chief Executive Terry Semel, speaking at an event, said it had no choice but to comply with local laws and did not have the power to change Chinese policy.Why you have double standard to judge same things confronting the two different countries? 


You better clean your own backyard before criticize other people’s practice of obeying the law in the foreign countries.


As for my case, I had to follow California law and in the mean time filed protest to Governor of California for an answer. I welcome you to review my articles with letter to the governor of California in my blog.  I have enough evidence of
e-mails correspondence with DHS concerned.
