Liang Songji, a veteran Chinese Rights Activist, was barred from boarding a Qatar Airways Flight from Bangkok to Ecuador, where he planned to claim political asylum in the United States with his family. Liang had the necessary documents and believes the decision to prevent him from boarding came from senior levels at Qatar Airways or the Ecuadorian government. He had hoped to travel overland from Ecuador to Mexico, joining the growing number of Chinese nationals fleeing their country. Liang's request for an emergency meeting with a US diplomat at the embassy in Thailand was rejected.
