BOCOC Director of Media and communications Wang Hui, said the actions of separatists were a serious violation of the Olympic spirit, as the Olympic flame belongs to the world.

Wang Hui said, "We strongly condemn the disgusting behaviour of a handful of Tibetan separatists who have tried to sabotage the Olympic torch relay. The Olympic flame belongs to people of the whole world. The public will not look favourably at a few people who are trying to challenge the Olympic spirit. These acts will surely arouse the resentment of the peace-loving people, and are bound to fail."
