Yichen Ji · Samuel

纪懿宸，英文名 Samuel，1994 年出生于中国黑龙江省。青年时期赴日本留学，高中阶段开始接触海外社会与不同文化环境，后毕业于日本经济大学。

Yichen Ji, also known as Samuel, was born in 1994 in Heilongjiang Province, China. In his youth, he went to Japan to study, where he began encountering overseas society and different cultural environments during high school. He later graduated from Japan University of Economics.

由于爷爷革命军人待遇问题，纪懿宸从小便对中国共产党产生不满。其爷爷曾参加过国共内战中的多场战役，经历过伤痛、被俘与漫长等待，但晚年却未能获得应有的身份承认、尊严与保障。这段家族经历，使纪懿宸很早便开始质疑中共对普通人、老兵和底层人民的态度，也让他逐渐认识到，在一党专政体制下，个人的牺牲和尊严往往会被权力轻易遗忘。

Because of the treatment issue concerning his grandfather, a former revolutionary soldier, Yichen Ji developed dissatisfaction with the Chinese Communist Party from an early age. His grandfather took part in several battles during the Chinese Civil War and experienced injury, capture, and long years of waiting, yet in his later years he did not receive the identity recognition, dignity, or protection he deserved. This family experience led Yichen Ji to question early on the CCP’s attitude toward ordinary people, veterans, and the lower classes, and gradually made him realize that under a one-party dictatorship, individual sacrifice and dignity are often easily forgotten by power.

在日本求学期间，纪懿宸系统接触到现代民主制度、公民社会、新闻自由、法治观念与地方自治等理念。日本社会对个人权利、公共秩序、社会责任和政治参与的重视，使他开始重新思考中国社会长期存在的专制体制、言论审查、人权压迫与公民权利缺失等问题。

During his studies in Japan, Yichen Ji systematically encountered ideas such as modern democratic institutions, civil society, press freedom, the rule of law, and local self-governance. Japanese society’s emphasis on individual rights, public order, social responsibility, and political participation led him to rethink the long-standing problems in Chinese society, including authoritarian rule, censorship, human rights oppression, and the lack of civil rights.

此后，纪懿宸逐渐形成了支持民主、自由、人权和宪政法治的政治立场。他认为，中国人民不应永远生活在恐惧、审查和政治控制之下，中国的未来应当属于人民，而不应被任何一个政党长期垄断。

Since then, Yichen Ji has gradually formed a political position in support of democracy, freedom, human rights, and constitutional rule of law. He believes that the Chinese people should not forever live under fear, censorship, and political control, and that China’s future should belong to the people rather than be monopolized indefinitely by any single political party.

加入中国民主进步联盟后，纪懿宸担任宣传部长，主要负责组织宣传、活动文案、对外传播、社交媒体内容、新闻稿撰写及公众沟通等工作。他积极参与在澳洲的民主宣传与公共集会活动，关注中国人权、香港自由、六四平反、政治犯与良心犯议题，并致力于推动海外华人走出恐惧、勇敢发声。

After joining the China Democracy Progressive Alliance, Yichen Ji serves as Publicity Minister. He is mainly responsible for organizational publicity, event writing, external communications, social media content, press release drafting, and public communication. He actively participates in democratic advocacy and public rallies in Australia, focuses on issues including human rights in China, freedom in Hong Kong, the rehabilitation of June 4, political prisoners, and prisoners of conscience, and is committed to encouraging overseas Chinese communities to overcome fear and speak out courageously.

作为一名长期生活在海外的中国青年，纪懿宸相信，海外华人有责任把真实声音传递给国际社会，也有责任让墙内的中国人民知道：自由、民主、人权与法治并不是遥远的口号，而是每一个中国人都应当拥有的基本权利。

As a young Chinese person who has lived overseas for a long time, Yichen Ji believes that overseas Chinese have a responsibility to convey truthful voices to the international community, and also a responsibility to let people inside China know that freedom, democracy, human rights, and the rule of law are not distant slogans, but basic rights that every Chinese person should possess.

他主张以学习国父孙中山先生的革命精神推翻满清王朝的方式，推动中国民主化进程，反对中共一党专政，支持建立一个自由、民主、宪政、法治的新中国。

He advocates learning from the revolutionary spirit of Dr. Sun Yat-sen, who overthrew the Qing dynasty, as a way to promote China’s democratization process. He opposes the CCP’s one-party dictatorship and supports the establishment of a new China based on freedom, democracy, constitutionalism, and the rule of law.
