Clinton: China Must Tolerate More Dissent – Audra Ang

From AP, via the Washington Post:

China will have to tolerate more dissent as its economy grows and opens up to the rest of the world, former President Clinton said Sunday.

Clinton, who is on a four-day visit to China, also said he would have raised the case of a Chinese journalist imprisoned for allegedly providing state secrets to foreigners when he spoke at a conference on Saturday but he had not been aware of the issue at the time.
