IMPP, Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. December 10 of 2010, which happened to be
the Human Rights Day adopted by United Nations, is a special day for the
the people of Southern Mongolia, aka. "Inner Mongolia" as
it was also the scheduled release date for Hada, an ethnic
Mongolian human rights activist. Hada, who served 15 years
of jail term, the longest term served by a political
prisoner in China in recent years, was arrested and
convicted in 1995 for organizing Southern Mongolian Democratic Alliance
in 1992. Since then, he has been regarded a symbol of resistance
in Southern Mongolia, whose people have been subject to
the colonial rule of People's Republic of China for more
than 60 years and have gone through decades of oppression,
discrimination and ethnic genocide.
