Description

Several hundred people in Maoming in southern Guangdong staged another rally yesterday against a proposed chemical plant, with the public still apparently deeply distrustful of assurances from officials that no decisions have been made on whether to push ahead with the scheme.
Protesters marched from outside Maoming government headquarter to People's Square in the afternoon, carrying red flags and placards condemning the authorities use of force against demonstrators and demanding that the controversial scheme to build the plant be scrapped.
