Some Guangxi Han People’s View of China’s Minority Policies-Giving Zhuang a

Stoneman

	I found this article on the web linked with the following web: “Forum on Nations and Societies” http://www.network54.com/Forum/115154?it=0 This forum is maintained by some Han Chinese studying or working in Japan. Some of them are probably software engineers or programmers. I have scanned through many pages of this forum and found that some writers on this forum are Han chauvinists (da han minzu zhuyi ce) and hate minorities. If you have access to this website, I would recommend that you do not argue with those anti-minority writers. The main reason is that someone (most likely Banzhu-the forum owner) changed my arguments just because I did not agree with them. This is probably not a place where freedom of speech prevails and different viewpoints can be exchanged. The following article was written by 南乡子, a person originally from Guangxi who likely was working in Japan in the IT (Information Technology) industry at the time the article was first posted on July 6, 2001 (maybe he is working there). I think this article represents some Guangxi Han people’s perspective of China’s minority policies and the setup of a Zhuang Autonomous Region in Guangxi. Not very logically, the writer drew a general conclusion based on limited and atypical examples. In my opinion, this article had some points but was overall biased and subjective. My purpose of posting this article here is to hope that we should realize how some of the Han people in Guangxi look at us. Accordingly, we would know how hard our task is and will be to tell the world about the truth of the Choong. Again, I do not recommend that you argue with the writer, because I don’ think that he represents the standpoint of the mainstream Han people in Guangxi. I believe that many Han people in Guangxi are nice. They have co-existed peacefully with the aboriginal peoples (mainly the Rao people) in this wonderland for generations. We are different but integral members of a big family. We are all People of Guangxi (Guangxi Ren). We share many common interests and customs. We want to see a strong and peaceful Guangxi and rich and well-educated Guangxi people. If what I said here may have offended anyone (including 南乡子), please forgive me and do not attack me. If Banzhu thinks that my message is not appropriate here and decides to delete it, I am fine with that. I welcome honest and sincere discussion. Thanks.

	那个网站我去看过，刚才又去看了一次。新的那篇文章跟南乡子五年前发表的文章主旨和内容是一致的，说明身在日本的南乡子五年多来一直对壮族耿耿于怀，始终不能容忍中国壮族的存在、中国民族政策的维持，看不到壮族的衰落和中国民族政策的剧变将是他一生一世的痛。

	这种人好象希望全世界只剩他一个才好呢，可是到那时他一个人不寂寞吗？世界因为丰富而多姿多彩，如果到后来只剩下一个民族，就象全世界只有剩下人类时，人类该什么办，那时的人不是很寂寞吗
