Q: A Canadian Refugee Board in Vancouver denied the application for refugee status by Lai Changxing and his family on June 22. What's your comment?
A: It is known to all that Lai Changxing is the prime criminal suspect of the Xiamen Yuanhua massive smuggling operation. We have irrefutable evidence for his crimes. He is by no means a "refugee", but a fugitive on the run. I believe that the decision by the competent authorities of Canada to deny his "refugee status" conforms to such a basic fact.
