[交流] Interview with Shimin Fang

Why is science fraud such a problem in China?

　　It is the result of interactions between totalitarianism, the lack
of freedom of speech,press and academic research, extreme
capitalism that tries to commercialise everything including science and
education, traditional culture, the lack of scientific spirit, the
culture of saving-face and so on. It's also because there is not a
credible official channel to report, investigate and punish academic
misconduct. The cheaters don't have to worry they will someday be
caught and punished.

　　What have been the worst moments?

　　I have been sued more than 10 times. Because the Chinese legal
system is very corrupt and a ruling is not always made according to
the evidence, it is not surprising that I have lost some libel cases
even though I did nothing wrong. In one of these, a local court at
Wuhan ordered me to pay 40,000 yuan in compensation and transferred
the money from my wife's account. I have also narrowly escaped from an
attack with pepper spray and a hammer.

　　Has it been worth it?

　　Yes. I fully understand the risk I am facing and am willing to
take it. What troubles me most is that my wife and my young daughter
also have to endure vituperation and personal attacks.
