  On April 15, 2019, total of 18 Jehovah's Witnesses in China were arrested and charged with indictable offences relating to, "using an evil religion organization" to "incite the obstruction of law enforcement," and one charge relating to, "obstructing law enforcement by organizing and using an evil religious organization."
  

  Since the arrests, the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses have remained silent on the plight of these 18 Jehovah's Witnesses in China.

  China is an oppressive regime. An estimated 1 million Uighur Muslims are being held in prison camps in Xinjuing province.

  It's only a matter of time before it takes control of Hong Kong by force.

  I wish no ill will towards anyone, this is sad, and the only ones to be mad at IMHO are the GB who live in the Sterling Forest Resort while those gullible and uneducated (Such as these perhaps) are facing the wrath of the governments...

  They will not put this on the JW.borg website as this would acknowledge they are doing proselytizing in China.

  Also of note is the recent release of the Book by Amber S. detailing how things work in JW land china...

  OP, you're a freaky dishonest state terrorism apologist. Do you really believe you may demand anything?
  

  Also, did ChinaAid Association authorize you to use its translation? And why didn't you even mention who made this translation?
  

  Also, in fact, Mr. Christensen doesn't appear in the photo you used; the person in the center of the photo is Robert Delahaije, and you did or should know this.

  Also, your claim that "Christensen came under the watch of Russian officials after he assisted Sanderson and his entourage ‘flee underground from Russia’" is totally false.

  Also, your claim that Mr. Christensen was a "Watch Tower official" and "representative" is misleadingly vague, if not wrong. Why didn't you just write that he was a local elder and a COBE who lived in Russia for decades?
  

  sir82 How much real estate does the WTS own in China? There's your answer.

  How much real estate does the WTS own in Eritrea? in Uzbekistan? in Tajikistan? in Turkmenistan?

  Do you understand now why your answer is not just clichéd, but also wrong?
