Global Voices Online shares netizen reactions to the August 2009 document from the Central Commission on Political and Legal Affairs of China that “encourage[d] people to resolve their disputes by legal means and demanded local governments to intercept visit petitions to the central government.” A translated forum post reads:
Firstly, having the local officials to process and resolve those complaints is a wrong strategy. To local officials, people’s petition visit to Beijing implies that they have made mistake and will make them lose faces. Will those responsible for the grievances be so righteous to correct their mistakes? Such [an] assumption is merely wishful thinking.
