China has launched a new website that allows citizens to report people they suspect of being foreign spies or separatists.
The Ministry of State Security reporting platform even offers rewards to citizens who report those who are trying to “overthrow the socialist system,” the South China Morning Post reported.
Accessible in both English and Mandarin, the website (www.12339.gov.cn) was launched on April 15 as part of China's National Security Education Day.
The new website details an exhaustive list of offenses that can be reported, including collusion with foreign countries, plotting to “dismember the state” and “fomenting subversion of state power” through “rumor, libel or other ways.” more
