澳大利亞民主中國陣線

秦晉先生

感謝你2006年8月20日和21日分別緻總理和唐納先生關於拘捕高智晟的信函,你給總理的信函已經轉給了唐納先生,這事他負責。我被要求代表唐納先生對你做出回應。

澳大利亞與你相同關注高智晟,駐京大使館已經就這個事件向中國政府提出了交涉。我們還經常地敦促中國改進司法過程的長期存在的缺陷 – 停止任意拘捕,確保公平審訊,保障律師自由開業不受干擾。

澳大利亞政府還保持對中國的廣義人權的關注,包括公民自由,及時地向中國政府提出關注。澳州政府通常通過高層提出關注,所做的不僅僅是駐京使館和高層互訪,二期還有每年的澳中人權對話。

在2006年7月最近一輪的雙邊人權對話中,澳州政府提出了一系列的人權問題,其中包括:言論自由、信仰自由、善待政治犯和少數民族、法輪功、酷刑、死刑、勞教、勞工權益、婦女和兒童權益、愛滋病等。澳大利亞代表團特別地呼籲中國保護憲法所規定的公民和政治權利。

澳大利亞政府將繼續向中國政府提出人權方面的關注,將繼續密切注意和追蹤高智晟的案子。

感謝你知會澳州政府你的觀點。

Australian Government
Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade

4 September 2006

Mr Chin Jin
Chairman
Federation for a Democratic China Australia
PO Box 53
BELMORE NSW 2192

Dear Mr Chin

Thank you for your correspondence dated 20 and 21 August 2006 to the Prime Minister and Mr Downer concerning the detention of Mr Gao Zhisheng. Your correspondence to the Prime Minister was forwarded to Mr Downer as he has portfolio responsibility for this issue. I have been asked to reply to both of your items of correspondence, on behalf of Mr Downer.

Australia shares your concern about Gao Zhisheng. The Australian Embassy in Beijing has raised his case with the Chinese Government. We have regularly urged China to address continuing deficiencies in its legal processes – to cease the practice of arbitrary detention, to guarantee the right to a fair and impartial trial, and to uphold lawyers' rights to practice freely and without harassment.

The Australian Government also remains concerned about the broader human rights situation in China, including civil freedoms, and does not hesitate to raise these concerns with the Chinese Government. We do this regularly and at senior levels, not only through our Embassy in Beijing and during high-level visits, but also annually at the Australia-China Human Rights Dialogue.
At the last round of our bilateral human rights dialogue in July 2006, we raised our full range of human rights concerns. This included: freedom of expression; freedom of religion; treatment of political prisoners and ethnic minorities; Falun Gong; torture; the death penalty; re-education through labour; labour rights; women's and children's rights; and HIV/AIDs. The Australian delegation specifically called on China to protect those civil and political rights that its constitution is supposed to guarantee.

The Australian Government will continue to raise its human rights concerns with the Chinese authorities. We will also continue to follow Mr Gao's specific case closely.
Thank you for bringing your views to the attention of the Government.

Yours sincerely


Peter Roggero
Director
China Political and External Section
