"If you think your model is the best, and you use them as the ultimate measure of China, you'll find China does not fit," she said, "If the West insists on judging China by its Western standards, expecting China to become a Western-style country, it will always stay misguided."

"Yet, look around at countries that have adopted your system, how successful they are? Which one is doing as well as you are? Have they approached your GDP?" she said, "Maybe it (the Western system) works somewhere, but not necessarily everywhere."

China, with all its success, deserves respect and calm review about itself, Fu said. China is not rejecting any idea of human rights, Fu said. China is learning gradually and absorbing ideas that can be planted and grown and prosper on China's soil.

However, China rejects the ideas imposed on it, the vice minister said.

As for western countries'reports on China, Fu said some of those were tinged with jealousy.

Over the last few years, media reporting about China has been more extensive and balanced, but the jealousy is still there, she said.

She said if that people looked back at Western TV coverage of the rioting in Lhasa in 2008, "you would see on the footage police beating monks, but the police were wearing different uniforms every day. Those were not even Chinese police!"

"I am sure those insiders who put the footage on TV should know it was not from China, but why would they still do that?" she said, "It so damaged the image of your media in China, especially among the young. Your reputation will take a long while to recover from this."
