Ref: 222

This month, Bill Clinton will be the first U.S. president to visit China since the Tiananmen Square massacre. As a lead up to his trip, we look at the struggle of China’s most famous political dissident, who is trying to persuade Western governments not to do business with China. Wei Jing Shung survived 20 years in a Chinese gulag. Now he's finding life as an exile in the U.S. has its own set of problems. Few Western leaders will see him and many of those that do will only agree to do so behind closed doors.
