A Chinese Dissident named Chen Siming has arrived in Canada after being granted asylum, following a perilous journey through Laos, Thailand, and Taiwan. Chen, who is known for commemorating the Tiananmen Square Massacre, fled China and sought temporary asylum with the UNHCR in Thailand, but later felt unsafe there. He then traveled to Taiwan, where he spent two weeks in the transit area of the airport before being granted political asylum by Canada. Observers say Chen's case highlights the increasing challenges Chinese activists face when trying to leave the country, with exit bans and lack of valid passports hindering their escape.
