【新唐人2011年7月1日讯】“七一”前夕，中共中央统战部新闻发言人张献生表示，中国的多党合作制度具有广泛的覆盖面，所以，除了现有政党以外没有必要组建新的政党。可是，民间的声音是否认同呢？请看报导。
6月29号，在中共对外宣传办公室举行的新闻发布会上，《美国之音》记者问，如果有人还想成立新的民主党派，是否可以？
中共统战部新闻发言人张献生回答说，中国共产党和八个民主党派，已经基本涵盖目前中国各个社会阶层和群体，因此中国没有必要组建新的政党。
中国是否真的不需要组建新党呢？
林保华资深政论家：“我觉得中国非常需要一个党，这个党跟以前所有党不一样，那就是反对党，专门监督政府的。在这个国家里面，13亿人里面，所有的政党都跟执政党，跟共产党一个鼻孔出气，我觉得就是中国目前为什么出现很多问题的根本原因。它做错了事没有人可以监督，没有人可以反对。这个我觉得是问题的焦点。”
目前，中国有八个民主党，张献生声称，这八个“民主党派”是“中共的亲密友党，参政党”。
发布会上，有一名日本记者说，他的一个民主党派朋友表示，他们每年发展多少党员，不能自己说了算，而是由共产党人来定。
中共统战部副部长陈喜庆回应说：“民主党派发展成员的时候，确实有的要征询一下某些单位里面的中共的意见。
林保华：“中国这个八个政党里面是这样子，他们自己党章里面都规定要服从共产党领导，他们要发展多少党员，要共产党的同意。他们的经费是共产党给的。所以，你说这样子的党怎么 可以监督。只是帮共产党摇旗呐喊，摇旗呐喊还好，最怕他有时候还会助纣为虐。”
而中国公民是否有权申请建立新的政党，或者成立政治性社会团体呢？张献生在发布会上没有直接回答。
多年来，有中国公民组建政党、联盟等组织，如“中国民主党”、“泛蓝联盟”、“新青年学会”等。有的正式向有关政府部门提出申请，有些只是私下结社，这些公民先后被中共以“颠覆国家政权”等罪名起诉。
其中，宣布成立于1998年6月25号的“中国民主党”，是中共建政以来第一个宣布成立的政党组织，但在中共民政部申请注册时没有被批准。
1998年，“中国民主党”的主要成员徐文立、王有才、秦永敏，分别被中共判刑超过十年。此外，还有刘贤斌、查建国、何德普等一大批重要成员，也先后被判以重刑。
何普德 前民主党负责人 ：“所有代表民主党发言的、代表民主党搞工作的、包括对民主党的家属进行经济上的帮助，开展相关的一切工作，都属于非法活动。我想，在中国，还是应该有反对的声音存在，反对党成为合法政党，这是历史发展的必然。”
目前，中国没有《政党法》，但法律也没有明文禁止在现有九个政党之外，建立政党或者政治性社会团体。

“China Really Needs Another Party”
Before July 1, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)
United Front Dept. Spokesman Zhang Xiansheng
said, multi-party cooperation system
has been widely employed in China
and there is no need for a new political party.
Does however the general public agree with this?
On June 29, during news conference,
held by the CCP Foreign Propaganda Office,
Voice of America’ reporter asked if it is ok
for someone to start up a new democratic party?
CCP’s United Front Department Spokesman Zhang Xiansheng responded that the CCP
and eight other democratic parties
cover all levels of the Chinese society,
so there is no need for another political party.
Does China really not need another party?
Political Commentator Lin Baohua said, “I think
China really needs another party, a party different
from all other, an opposition party to help supervise
the government. In this country of 1.3 billion,
all political parties are part of the CCP,
act according to the CCP, that’s the root reason
for all problems in China. If it (CCP) makes mistake,
no one can supervise or oppose it.
I think this is the crucial issue.”
Zhang Xiansheng claim there are eight democratic
parties in China, but these eight “Democratic Parties”
are all CCP’s close friends or daughter-parties.
Upon learning that the Governor was coming to visit,
During the press conference, a Japanese reporter
said, a “democratic party” friend of his told him,
that the CCP determines how many members
they (the “Democratic Party”) can have.
Zhang Xiansheng responded, “When democratic
parties add new members, they do need to consult
with some CCP agencies.”
Lin Baohua: “The eight ‘democratic parties’
are like that; their own constitution requires them
to obey the CCP, they need to get permission
to add members and their budget is given by CCP.
How can a party like this supervise?
They can only voice their support for the CCP,
and voicing a support is not even that bad,
what’s worst is will they help CCP do evil.”
Are Chinese citizens allowed to start
new political party or political organizations?
Zhang Xiansheng never responded to that question.
Over the years Chinese citizens form political parties
or organizations like “Democracy Party of China”,
“Union of Chinese Nationalists”,
“New Youth Society", etc. Some submitted official
applications, some are private associations,
but they were all charged and prosecuted
for “attempt to subvert the state power.”
Among them, the Democracy Party of China (DPC)
started on June 25, 1998, and was the first
political organization to submit official application,
but the Ministry of Civil Affairs did not approve it.
In 1998, major DPC members like Xu Wenli,
Wang Youcai, Qin Yongmin were sentenced
to more than 10 years in jail. Other members,
like Liu Xianbin, Cha Jianguo and He Depu
were also severely sentenced.
Former DPC leader He Depu said, “All who spoke
for DPC, worked for DPC, including relatives
who helped financially, and help with any work,
were considered doing illegal activities.
I think, there are still opposing voices in China,
but an opposition party becoming legal
will definitely happen.“
Currently, there is no political party law in China,
but existing laws do not prohibit establishment
of other political parties or organizations.
