Title China: 1. I have had a look at the DOS 2005 reports. Is there any more specific information on workers' protests in Fujian province 2005 to date (relating to unpaid wages or other labour matters), and how the authorities have dealt with such protests? 2. Would there be any specific information on this particular protest (National Day, 1 October 2005, Fuzhou City central square)? 3. How would police generally be expected to react to this type of protest? For example, on National Day in the central square would it be usual for them to disperse the crowd immediately or is it possible that they would arrive one hour later? 4. Once demonstrators of this sort have come to the notice of the authorities, does the Public Security Bureau keep them on a blacklist from then on?
