Summary
After a decade of perilous escapes and multiple failed attempts, Chinese political dissident Dong Guangping has finally reached safety in Canada—his fourth known bid for freedom. Once a Chinese police officer turned outspoken critic, he’s spent years in detention for challenging the state, including for participating in a memorial. His most dramatic prior escape involved a sea voyage in an inflatable boat that ended with his capture by South Korea’s coast guard. Now, after landing in Toronto on an Air Canada flight and enjoying a bowl of noodles, he’s reuniting with his family already living in Canada. His journey, marked by resilience and sacrifice, finally ends in sanctuary. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
