【新唐人2011年7月9日讯】大陆警方最近调查了在微博上炫富的郭美美,“她与中国红十字会无关”的说法,并不能摆平大陆网友的愤怒和疑问。一直关注这事件的中国异议作家殷德义分析指出,官办慈善机构缺乏监督,官员的贪污腐败达到肆无忌惮的地步,所以民众对政府和这种慈善机构都失去了信任。
7月7号,大陆媒体报导,北京市公安局东城分局查明,郭美美与“中国红十字总会”无直接关联。这是对“中国红十字会”6月底报警的回复。
半个月来,经过人肉搜索,网友们发现,以“中国红十字会商业总经理 ”的身份,在微博上炫富的郭美美,是“中红博爱公司”前董事王军的所谓女友。虽然郭美美对此否认,但“中红博爱公司”的法人代表、首席执行官翁涛证实了这一点。
就在警方为“中国红十字会”撇清与郭美美的关系的同时,大陆媒体又爆出另一条内幕。
另据《中国经营报》的消息,有红十字会内部的人士透露,在经过郭美美事件之后,红十字召开紧急会议,与下属所有的员工签订了保密协定,即封口协定。
为什么要对全体员工封口呢?“中国红十字会”是大陆最大的慈善机构,现任名誉会长是中共国家主席胡锦涛。
中国异议作家殷德义:“在中国,红十字会属于官方的机构,它不接受任何人的监督。这些官员无所谓百姓的善心,因为没有权力监督,他们总觉得不会受到法律的严惩。再加上当地政府对他们的包庇,那他们就是肆无忌惮。”
“中国红十字会”的新闻发言人公布,仅汶川地震,“中国红十字会”一共接受到国内外捐款199亿元。
殷德义:“汶川地震的时候,只要是中国人、有能力的都会去捐款的。但是它总是出现问题。一顶帐篷400块、700块,卖到一万三。一个医疗设备市场价50万,他们那个地方买就是120万。他们这个权力已经是肆无忌惮了。”
中国青年法学家、公盟创始人许志永在推特上也披露,“听河南一家医院院长讲,红十字会捐赠医疗器械潜规则:加入市场价50万元,红会标价100万,给中间人5%,给工作人员15%,即捐款人和受赠人付出120万元,医院才能得到50万元的器械。”
数以万计的网友们由此对“中国红十字会”在使用善款中,是否存在贪污腐败问题,提出了质疑。“中国红十字会”没有作出回答,却一再否认和郭美美有关系。
殷德义:“相关责任人一直在跟网民打太极,到处在逃避责任。而这时候最应该站出来的是政府部门、监管部门,彻查这里的贪污腐败的现象。但是他们一直没有站出来。那这样,老百姓就不会相信这样的政府,也就不会相信这样的机构。”
大陆审计署去年(2010年)审计公告显示,“中国红十字会”有5个主要问题,仅超过标准的采购部分就高达420万元。
殷德义:“民众这种心态也非一日之寒嘛,所谓的冰冻三尺,是吧?中国现在公众的良心已经被他们腐蚀透了,没人再会相信它了。老百姓更多的信任这种民间的、自行组织的NGO之类的。”
刚刚赢得法网冠军的网球运动员李娜,将当局发给她的60万奖金,在纳税下的48万,再加上自己添钱,一共是50万元善款,捐给了武汉市孤残养老院。李娜的团队表示,李娜希望真的能够帮到他们。李娜也听说了郭美美事件,所以她拒绝通过“红十字会”捐款。
目前,郭美美事件已经引起国际媒体的注意。美国《纽约时报》报导说,“年轻貌美的郭美美的照片就像一颗颗手榴弹炸向中国的慈善事业。”而CNN电视报导的题目是“中国红十字会陷入信用危机”。

State Charity Distrusted
Chinese police says that Guo Meimei, who showed off online,
has nothing to do with the Red Cross Society of China (RCSC).
But the infuriated Chinese netizens do not buy it.
Chinese dissident writer Yin Deyi points out that
the lack of supervision on state-owned charities
and the uncontrollable corruption of officials result in
the Chinese distrusting the government and state charities.
On July 7, the media reported that after police investigation,
Guo Meimei was said to have no direct relation with RCSC.
This is the reply to RCSC’s case filed at the end of June.
After half month’s human flesh search,
netizens found that Guo, the “commerce general manager"
at Red Cross Commerce, is a girlfriend of Wang Jun.
Wang is ex-director of China Red Charity Company (CRCC).
Although Guo denied having a relationship with Wang,
Weng Tao, CEO of CRCC confirmed this.
While police is denying Red Cross’s relationship with Guo,
another piece of news is revealed by the Chinese media.
According to China Business, an insider at Red Cross revealed
that China Red Cross called an emergency meeting,
demanding all staff to sign a non-disclosure agreement.
Why do they hush all employees?
RCSC is the largest charitable organization in mainland China,
with Hu Jingtao being its honorary president.
Yin Deyi: In China, Red Cross is a state-owned organization.
It is not supervised by anyone.
Its officials do not possess the kindness towards the people.
As they are not supervised, they think they are beyond the law.
Also, as they are harbored by the local governments,
they have become even more outrageous.
RCSC spokesman said that for 2008 Sichuan earthquake alone,
RCSC had received RMB 19.9 billion in donation.
Yin Deyi: When the earthquake took place,
almost all Chinese capable of donating did so.
However, there have always been problems.
The price of a tent rose from RMB 400, to 700, and to 13,000.
Equipment worth RMB 500,000 was sold for 1.2 million.
These officials’ power is unbridled.
China youth jurist and founder of Open Constitution Initiative,
Xu Zhiyong, also disclosed on Twitter,
“I heard from a chief of medicine in Henan about
the hidden rules of the Red Cross donating medical equipment.
Equipments worth RMB 500,000 are marked up to be 1 million.
The Red Cross pays 5% to middlemen and 15% to its staff.
Thus for every RMB 1.2 million donated,
the hospitals only get equipments worth RMB 500,000."
Tens of thousands of netizens question the way, in which
RCSC uses donation and whether there is corruption.
RCSC gives no comments about it,
but it keeps denying its relationship with Guo.
Yin: The responsible parties have been avoiding their duty.
The government departments and regulatory authorities
should step forward to investigate the possible corruption.
However, they never did.
Thus, people would not trust such a government,
and would not believe in such an institution. “
2010 Audit Announcement from Mainland Audit department
shows, there are five major issues in RCSC.
Excessive purchases alone were RMB 4.2 million.
Yin: Rome wasn’t built in a day, neither is people’s attitude.
China’s public conscience has been eroded by these officials.
Nobody believes in Red Cross anymore.
People prefer to trust privately organized NGOs.
Li Na, the tennis player who just won French Open Champion,
donated RMB 500,000 to orphanages and nursing homes,
with her after-tax bonus of RMB 480,000 and some savings.
Her team says that she really wants to help.
Due to Guo’s scandal, she refused to donate through RCSC.
Now, Guo Incident has attracted international media attention.
The New York Times says “The photographs of the alluring
young woman landed like hand grenades in the world of
Chinese philanthropy."
CNN reported: “Red Cross China in credibility crisis".
