BBC News - Chinese university 'expels' economist Xia Yeliang

An elite university in China has terminated the contract of the outspoken economist and champion of free speech Xia Yeliang, reports say.

Mr Xia told the Associated Press that the economics faculty at Peking University voted to expel him.

The professor has spoken in favour of democratic values.

His dismissal comes as China's leaders have been tightening their control of the media and internet, arresting bloggers and activists.

Mr Xia helped draft Charter 08, a manifesto calling for political change in China, and is a friend of jailed 2010 Nobel Peace Prize winner Liu Xiaobo.

In an interview with the BBC World service at the time of Mr Liu's honour, Mr Xia said he had been asked by the authorities not to speak to journalists or celebrate his friend's award.

Rumours of Mr Xia's likely dismissal prompted the Committee of Concerned Scientists to write a letter to Peking University's president, calling on him to cancel the planned faculty vote on the liberal professor's position.

Mr Xia spent the academic year 2012-13 as a visiting scholar at Stanford University in California.

"In recent years, Xia's teaching evaluations has been consistently the lowest of the whole School of Economics. The school has received more than 340 student complaints since 2006. The hiring and promotion committee voted against the renewal of his contract on Oct 26, 2012. As a courtesy, the school gave Xia one year extension. On Oct 11, 2013, the committee voted again. 34 out of 37 members showed up. 3 voted yes, 1 gave up, and 30 voted no. The school therefore terminated the contract."

A typical hanjian needs to be kick out and go back to where they belong which is USA so they can continue their asskissing career.

Seems like the paid ccp members do not like anything being said against the ccp.

asking for democracy is a crime in China.

They did this to a reputed professor. I wonder what would be the fate of a common person. probably 20-30 years long solitary imprisonment.

here comes another insecure person afraid of a 90 year old person asking for democracy.

these people are so insecure, they will put a 5 year old child in jail if he paints the word democracy on his school bag.

blow the pipe? so do you insist the Chinese billions are a bunch idiots? or a majority of them are idiots so they will fall for him (some random guy from China)?

Indians are 10000000 times better then the slave chinese. If this same professor leave 1 even 100 of them come to India and start lecturing people on communism in India. No one in insecure here and they can do that till their death if they please.

But ccp being ccp knows the slaves will protest if they start liking freedom, so the insecure people are afraid even of one feeble voice speaking for democracy. you seem more insecure then a 16 year old girl alone on a dark street in night.

it is not democracy but subversive attempts to destabalize the law and order there.

cheerleaders are insecure and scared of China's strength that is why you people will start by every means against us!

Correction - insecure troll

cheerleaders' definition of "troll" on pdf = Members who slam the cheerleaders hard on their nonsense

Dear Indians, you can have him. You can use him for doorstop, bookends, paper weight, juggling balls, or whatever you see fit.

The question is does he want to come to your country, and can you afford him.
