“I enjoy listening to different voices on your station. China has a repressive system that brings people up in a way that is not quite normal. Here in the city of Xining, for example, if you speak up against a city-sponsored sports event you would be branded a ‘counter-revolutionary,’ not just by the authorities but also by the people. I know that in the West people can express themselves freely and speak to journalists whenever they want. I envy them. Your radio station allows people to express their views. It’s wonderful. You have transformed me. I think that’s your biggest accomplishment.”
