About the legalization of organ sales in China, we offer below a recension of the article published in The Epoch Times, USA, prepared by JENNIFER BATEMAN AND ELLEN WAN today. We regret having to give very hard facts. However, these criminal acts are also allowed by law in many Western countries, leading to commercial trafficking of aborted fetuses, as Planned Parenthood does in the USA. When an ideology refuses to recognize moral norms, there is always a deep fall into barbarism.

In China some sites have published official guide prices for vital human organs, such as livers, kidneys and hearts. This shows that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is trying to normalize the black market of this trade.  Some Departments jointly issued “standard fees for donated organs”.

According to the list, organs for transplantation include livers at 260,000 yuan ($40,700), kidneys at 160,000 yuan ($25,000), hearts at 100,000 yuan ($15,600), lungs at 80,000 yuan ($12,500), corneas at 10,000 yuan ($1,600), pancreas at 50,000 yuan ($7,800), small intestines at 50,000 yuan and other organ segments.

Huang told The Epoch Times that the CCP document clearly states that the cost of obtaining what it says are donated organs is calculated based on resource consumption, technology, labor value and public acceptability.

In addition, both Hubei and Henan provinces have set different prices for children’s and adult organs. The price in Henan province is 100,000 yuan ($15,600) for a child’s liver, less than half the 260,000 yuan ($41,000) for an adult. Prices for single and double kidneys for children are also lower than those for adults at 60,000 yuan ($9,400) and 80,000 yuan ($12,500) respectively.

Questionable ‘donation’ figures

Dr. Huang explained that the Red Cross Society of China, which is actually under Beijing’s control, is one of the organizations that documents organ donations and publishes the data in the national database. It says that in China “organ donation is voluntary and free.” The Red Cross Society of China has nothing to do with the International Red Cross, but is simply an internal CCP body that will certify whatever the party authorities require of it. Estrategia china para controlar el mundo

Hamid Sabi – independent counsel for the London-based Court of China, who said that forced organ harvesting had taken place “on a significant scale” in China – at a press conference in Belgium on October 27 – and that Chinese authorities have used the testimony of the Red Cross Society of China to counter pressure from Europe, the United States and other countries to provide transparency about its organ donation program.

Regarding the CCP’s official organ donor database, Sabi said China’s claims of being able to obtain 2.8 organs per donor – which is 180 times higher than what donation systems in Europe and the United States can achieve – would still fall far short of covering the 10,000 officially registered transplants per year. Many experts also estimate that the actual number of transplants performed in China is much higher than the official figures.

Procurement of live organs

A June 2016 report by David Kilgour, former Canadian Secretary of State for Asia-Pacific; David Matas, a human rights lawyer; and Ethan Guttmann, a senior U.S. investigative journalist, estimated, based on multiple sources, that China could be performing between 60,000 and 100,000 transplants per year. Many indicators point to Falun Gong students and other prisoners of conscience caught up in China’s politicized judicial system as the main source of these organs.

Falun Gong is a group that practices ancient spiritual meditation, which became very popular in China in the 1990s, until it was banned in 1999 and its practitioners became the target of media slander and illegal detention and torture.

Reports by the World Organization for the Investigation of the Persecution of Falun Gong (WOIPFG) also claim that since the CCP began persecuting Falun Gong, imprisoned Falun Gong practitioners have become a large bank of live human organs for transplantation in China. WOIPFG searched and analyzed hundreds of thousands of public media reports, documents and databases from 891 transplant hospitals and 9,515 transplant surgeons in China over the past 15 years and found that, between 2000 and 2006, the number of organ transplants performed in China grew exponentially.  During the same period, at least one million Falun Gong practitioners were arrested and detained in labor camps, prisons, detention centers, and brainwashing centers.
