The North Korean dictatorship regime has been exhausting its national resources in developing nuclear arms and other weapons of mass destruction to challenge the free world, especially Japan, South Korea, etc. It imposes a threat to the peace in the Northeast Asia. Because of this, people in North Korea has been living miserable lives, many of them having starved to death.

北朝鲜专制统治竭举国之资源发展核武器等大规模杀伤性武器，以挑战韩国、日本等民主国家。这已经严重威胁到亚洲东北部的和平稳定。在此专制统治下，北朝鲜人民过着悲惨的生活，很多人被死于饥饿。

Since the 1990's, more than 200 thousand people from North Korea have crossed the Chinese-North Korean borders and have been in hiding in Northeast China to stay away from starving to death.
20世纪90年代以来，超过20万北朝鲜民众为逃避饥饿越过中朝边境，藏匿于中国东北地区。

However, the Chinese government has been vigorously enforcing the repatriation of North Korean refugees, and Chinese citizens, especially those ethnic Koreans who harbored those refugees are detained, fined, and even imprisoned.
但是，中国政府增强力度遣返北朝鲜难民，同时，帮助北朝鲜难民藏匿的中国人也面临被拘留、罚款、甚至坐牢的命运。

Those North Korean refugees who were arrested and sent back to North Korea are either sent to labor camps and die in hunger or disease, or simply got shot in mass execution.
那些被强制遣返的北朝鲜难民要么被送进苦力营，被饥病折磨而死，要么直接被处死。

"Coalition for Citizens Rights" calls on the Chinese government to immediately end the forced repatriation of North Korean refugees, and end the support to the Kim feudalistic dynasty.
