China Says Foreign Internet Companies Must Abide by Local Laws

An AFP newswire article, via PhysOrg.com, reports that:

China insisted that foreign Internet companies operating in the country must abide by its laws, as US media giants continue to come under fire for bowing to Chinese censorship pressure.

"The Chinese government has adopted supervisory measures to limit those immoral and harmful (Internet) contents... the goal is to safeguard the people's interest," foreign ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao said.

"For those foreign companies, if they are going to operate in China they have to abide by Chinese laws."
