I am sure other Members of the House want to discuss this question with the gentleman. so I will not take more time except to say that not only do we have examples of these refugees. but some years ago we had the very graphic example of thousands of Chinese Communists. prisoners of war. who went to almost any length when they had the opportunity to choose freedom on Formosa rather than to return to slavery in their own country. even though it meant death to their families and their loved ones. I would much rather take the word of people such as the Tibetan refugees and the Chinese POWs rather than any number of people who may travel in China and be taken on a Cooks tour of just what the Communists want them to see and not see and sometimes come home with a grossly colored and biased impression.
