2002-02-14 WASHINGTON, Feb 14 (AFP) - US President George W. Bush is "concerned" about China's Thursday arrest of 40 foreign Falun Gong members and will raise the issue of religious freedom during his upcoming Beijing visit, the White House said. "The president remains very committed to taking this up, personally and directly, with Chinese officials," Bush spokesman Ari Fleischer said two days before the US leader leaves for a week-long trip to Tokyo, Seoul and Beijing.
On 1:30 p.m., February 13, 2002, the Subcommittee on International Operations and Human Rights of US House Committee on International Relations held a hearing in #2172 Meeting Hall in the Rayburn Building. The committee listened to testimony from experts, organizations and witnesses on religious persecution in China and Vietnam. The goal of this hearing was to convey the people's concerns during President Bush's state visits to Asia, especially China, next week.
