This is the article I wrote in BBC 'Have your View'.
We all can see the picture above here that, a tank, seems to be moving towards the person. However, when you look at the video released by China Government, it is very clear that the tank was not moving, and also just tried to move in other directions to avoid clash with the person.Even from former Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping, in the government internal meeting, said, they tried the best, and he can assure that no one is bumped by any tank.
We also know that there are a lot of sodiers marched into squre, but the world should know what happened when they try to move in the sqaure. Tens of soldiers died, thousands of military tracks were burned by the people. Soldiers, in order not to hurt the people, even be beaten, burned to die, they didn't shoot even one bullet. yes, the purpose of the students in the tiananmen square is good. However, the good event was utilized by people with other bad purpose. Can you imagine that the soldiers are just been killed by the people? Can you imagine that even they were been killed, even their gun were grabbed, even they saw their friends die, the China soldier, didn't fired at all at this stage? Which country can have so good soldiers?
But the thing was going to be out of control,it was just a chaos over the Beijing, a capital of a country. At this stage, even in the government video, they admitted that they have to fire to the sky to show alert,but people were just getting crazy. from the Government video, they stated that they, at last, shoot the people, who went on fighting, burning the soldiers. Can you imagine, in U.S, in France, in Britain, the people killed soldiers? Let's have a look what did U.S government do to their protestors. In 1932, during the Big Depression, the soldiers who has fighted World War I, protested in front of the white house, but Ammerican Government and military, shoot at the people who has protected their country. In 70s, their were anti-war protest over U.S. However, the soldier went into the university campus and killed 4 students in Kent University. Campared U.S government and U.S soldier with China government and China Soldier, I think, China soldier China government performed very well. What will U.S government do when their soldiers killed by the people? In China, even they were killed, they didn't fire.
I believe that there were people died, which China government also admits, but everyone should look at the whole picture.Don't just pick the part you are 'interested in'. I also hope that, my article, if there is any probability to be published, published as the whole. Never just picked sentances in this article. thanks.
By the way, although I am in Singapore, I am a Chinese citizen. Before I was also very confused with what happened at all? With time passing by, more details were known by me. I just can say, I am proud of my China soldiers, I am proud of my government, though there are a lot of things need to be changed. I feel safe to be protected by this kind of soldiers, who are tender to the people but can beat any enemies.
