(Attorney Mo Shaoping)

Quote: "While the New York-based organization Human Rights Watch praises Mr.
Mo as having handled more high-profile human rights cases than any other
lawyer in China, he notes that these are also the riskiest and most time-
consuming cases and bring the least monetary reward. And he has yet to win
one. His clients all have been jailed or exiled for promoting democracy or
daring to challenge the Communist Party’s monopoly on power.
