Xinhua: 71% of Chinese women sexually harassed?

From Xinhua:

Sexual harassment has reportedly been included in the amendment to China’s Law on the Protection of the Rights and Interests of Women (LPRIW) that has been included on the legislative agenda for 2005.

It will be the first time this behaviour has appeared in Chinese law if it is passed by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress, possibly by the end of the year…

A nationwide survey showed that about 71 per cent of Chinese women have been sexually harassed in their lives.
