Response to the Web - Essay Example

Facts quoted in this article such as, the surrender of China's long-time head Zhou Youngkang are backed up with the reference of an article posted in Financial Times. The article accurately reported about the role of those networks that are responsible for cruel repression of prodemocracy (Mackinnon). Despite, reference from Financial Times, the credibility of this article is doubted as Financial Times has not cited the names of senior communist party members. Also, it is noticeable that in the article Mr.

Bo has been suspected for wasting much capital for the sake of protecting his own responsibilities towards nation. He has also been suspected for corruption, insubordination, and most prominently in case of British businessman's murder. The article highlights that in this murder case his wife has also been suspected, but the author has not provided any logical reason or reference behind this fact about Bo and his wife (Mackinnon). Moreover, the web source informs that Mr. Xi is believed to have been chosen as a new president under the compromise between the factions.

This fact has also not been supported by any credible source; however it is correctly quoted that the protection of the state is a foremost priority of all communist party members. The article says that China is a dangerous and de-destabilized place, mainly due to Zhou YongKang decisions and actions in past. However, no other source has ever complimented China as an insecure or underdeveloped state, but the author has only referred the words of Joshua Rosenzweig an independent human rights researcher based in Hong Kong.

The author should have fairly cited a logical reason behind this claim of Mr. Rosenzweig (Mackinnon). Also, the author has not even briefly mentioned in what context he has pointed out the acts of Zhou Yongkang over past decades. Further, author has quoted in another fact about China with reference to Mr.Rosenweig and has written that Mr. Zhou's ministry "had become so powerful that it had the makings of second party centre rivaling the number one and number two means the president and premier (Mackinnon).

Here, the author should have put a suitable example to prove the statement of Mr.Rosenweig as a stronger claim over political system and situations of Chinese government. Further, in the article it has reflected that the rights of citizens will be protected and the power of government will become limited. This seems a fair reporting as a full flash editorial article of the communist party`s flagship newspaper has been referred here to support the cause and effect of new slogan in Chinese government (Mackinnon).

Additionally, it is noticeable here that China is a communist country and it does not let international media to cover important political matters of the state. Therefore, whatever facts that are presented in this article related to two reformist parties cannot be completely trusted (Mackinnon). Chinese politics has no transparency; thus it cannot be said that this article truly reflect whatever is going on behind the curtain to secure the issue matters related to Chinese government. The author has randomly referred an observer, without mentioning about his/her role of designation or relationship with the Chinese politics and has written that it is expected that reform wing will intend to behave differently under new leadership.

Neither backup has been given for this claim nor has the complete information been provided to clear about the expected difference in acts
