The Beijing Olympics News Center today gacve a press conference titled ‘Peaceful Olympics Beijing Security Work’. BOCOG‘s Security Department head Liu Shaowu said that Beijing had already set up special demonstration zones for protesters to express themselves.
According to Liu Shaowu’s explanation, the special protest zones for self expression are in Fengtai District’s World Park, Haidian District’s Zizhuyuan park, and Chaoyang District’s Ritan Park all of which are quite close the Olympics competition areas and city center.
During the 1995 U.N. Women’s Conference in Beijing, the city government set up similar protest zones. But in 1995, those zones were in Huairou, way outside the city.
