Refworld | China: 1. Is there a significant problem with AIDS in Henan? 2. Are there many children affected? Are they not allowed into the school system? 3. I thought that there was an anti-corruption push by the Chinese Govt. Is this the case? 4. Are "whistleblowers" ever treated as political dissidents, such as in circumstances similar to these described by the Applicant? 5. Is it possible that someone can be detained, pay a penalty and have no criminal conviction recorded? If so is this common? 6. If there is not a conviction and a person is just detained and pays a penalty - do these people routinely come to the attention of the authorities if they try to leave the country? Are there instances where they have been able to leave the country easily?
