Universal human rights vs Beijing’s collective punishment of Muslims
Re: “Incredible hypocrisy in condemning China over treatment of Muslims”, Have Your Say, February 15.
Prasan Stianrapapongs defends the Chinese government in brilliant fashion once again.
Nonetheless, I would like to add that I think Western countries in general, and not necessarily the US, respect human rights more than does China. Mr Stianrapapongs talks about how badly the US has treated many Muslims, and I agree. Also, even though the US does treat suspected Muslim terrorists brutally, it treats each person on an individual basis, and does not condemn all people who belong to a particular group, in the manner that China does.
