“Civil Rights and Livelihood Watch” was founded by renowned human rights defender LIU Feiyue in 2005 in Hubei, China. Since 2006 until now, its website msguancha.com has published numerous first-hand articles on wide range of human rights issues in China, including prosecutions of activists and lawyers, protests, police abuses, and government corruption, subjects that China’s state-controlled media are prohibited from covering. It is nearly a miracle that the website is still under well operation , while its founder LIU Feiyue is serving 5 years sentence in prison from 2016 and its editor DING Lingjie was just released from 18 months imprisonment in 2019.
