在中共“十八大”期间，被强迫离开北京前往老家安徽的中国著名异议人士胡佳，11月12号，在他的博客上发表了对中共正在召开的十八大的十八项要求，他希望十八大是中共最后一届党代会。
他在博文中说，为了开这个会，中共各地的安保维稳系统都全力运转，已经并正在大范围侵犯国民的人权。这个会议每天都制造着国民的痛苦。他要求中共停止这种侵害，并向国民谢罪。
胡佳在文章中说：中共不是执政党。执政党是通过民主选举，有了执政合法性的。而中共是通过暴力夺取并维持统治的政党，它只是专政党，是一个巨大的既得利益群体，豢养着强大的国家黑社会势力。它掠夺和占有了国民创造的国家财富。贪婪而暴力。
在文章的最后，胡佳表示，希望通过民主选举的形式让中共以和平方式下台，不要再发生流血的暴力革命。
美媒：习近平接班 面临经济困境
中共正在举行“十八大”，将选出第5代领导人，习近平可望成为未来10年中共的头号人物，但是，美国媒体分析认为，习近平将面对的是一个面临经济困境的中国大陆。
“华尔街日报”报导，过去5年，大陆经济成长从2007年的超过14%，下降到今年第3季的7.4%，接近一半。而随着经济成长的放缓，劳动力也开始萎缩，预计从2015到2030年，大陆劳动人口将减少6900万人，工资与出口竞争力也将下降，房地产、出口、国有企业利润等各个经济部门的数据也都在下滑。
报导说，如何结束经济成长减缓，将是习近平最紧要的课题。

Hu Jia’s Eighteen Requests for the 18th Conference
Hu Jia, the well-known Chinese dissident, was forced to leave
Beijing during the 18th Conference.
He revealed his 18 requests for the 18th Conference
on his blog on November 12.
He hopes this is the last conference of the Chinese
Communist Party (CCP).
He stated that in order to hold this conference, the CCP used
all the security forces and strongly violated human rights nationwide.
This conference has generated pain and suffering
for all Chinese people every day.
He asked the CCP to cease such violations and to apologize
to everyone.
In his article, Hu Jia said the CCP is not the ruling party,
a ruling party should be legitimately elected by its people.
The CCP is a political party which gained its power through
violence; it is a specific political party, a huge vested interest group,
that depends on a powerful black society to rob the wealth
of the nation and its people through greed and violence.
At the end of his article, Hu Jia expressed that he hopes
the CCP will exit through democratic election,
steps down in a peaceful manner, and
avoid the bloodshed of violent revolution.
U.S. Media: Xi Jinping Will Face Economic Hardship
The CCP is holding its 18th Conference to elect
its fifth generation leader.
Xi Jinping is expected to be the top man of the CCP
for the next 10 years.
According to U.S. media analysis, Xi Jinping will face
economic difficulties in Mainland China.
The Wall Street Journal reported that the Mainland’s economic
growth in the past five years has declined nearly 50%,
from more than 14% in 2007 to 7.4% in the third quarter
of this year.
With the slowdown in economic growth, the labor force has
also begun to shrink.
From 2015 to 2030, the mainland’s labor force
will be reduced by 690,000 people.
Wages and export competitiveness will also decline.
The same is true in real estate, exports, profits of state-owned
enterprises, and other sectors of the economy.
The report says ending the economic slowdown
will be the most critical issue for Xi Jinping.
Zhu Yufu May Suffer Bizarre Prison Death
According to the Radio Free Asia report, the health
of Zhu Yufu, a member of the China Democracy Party
who was sentenced to seven years in prison,
is deteriorating sharply in prison.
His family told reporters on November 13, that Zhu Yufu has
severe cerebral arteriosclerosis, hypertension, and can’t tolerate
hot and cold temperature changes, but the prison guards have
not allowed him to wear a hat, which caused him to faint.
After being rescued, he is still in danger.
It is learned that in Zhu Yufu’s prison, many Falun Gong
practitioners have died mysteriously.
Zhu Yufu and his family are afraid that Zhu Yufu
may encounter the same fate
Therefore, they call on the international community
to give attention to this matter.
