Liberty Democracy Party of China
Chinese name: 中国自由民主党
Web identity: CFDPUS / cfdpus.org
Organization type: Chinese pro-democracy political organization
Current public website: cfdpus.org
Identity note: This organization uses the same Chinese name, 中国自由民主党, as historical organizations and branches commonly rendered in English as Party for Freedom and Democracy in China (PFDC). FreeChina.live treats CFDPUS / Liberty Democracy Party of China as a separate organization record unless documentary evidence establishes a specific continuity, succession or branch relationship. Shared Chinese naming alone is not treated as proof of organizational identity.
Archive notice: This FreeChina.live page is an independent historical and research resource. It is not the official website of CFDPUS and does not imply endorsement, control or succession.
Overview
CFDPUS publicly identifies itself in English as Liberty Democracy Party of China and in Chinese as 中国自由民主党. Its current public website publishes organizational activities, political commentary and movement-related material. FreeChina.live maintains this record separately from the historical PFDC archive so researchers can distinguish organizations that share the same Chinese name.
Identity & Relationship to Historical PFDC
The historical PFDC record at FreeChina.live documents organizations and competing branches active in the 1990s under the Chinese name 中国自由民主党 and the English rendering Party for Freedom and Democracy in China. CFDPUS uses the same Chinese name but a different English name and current web identity. Any relationship between CFDPUS and the historical PFDC lines—including continuity, succession, reorganization, split or independent reuse of the name—must be established with organization-issued documents and corroborating evidence before being stated as fact.
Current Public Activity
The organization’s website remains active and identifies the organization as Liberty Democracy Party of China. Recent public material includes organization-branded events and statements, including activities in New York. FreeChina.live will archive or cite such material according to provenance and rights rules, distinguishing organization self-description from independently verified facts.
Leadership & Major Members
Current and historical leaders, officers and major members will be added with role- and date-specific evidence. Public organization material from 2026 identifies Chen Ming (陈明) as chairman; this should be treated as an organization self-description until corroborated by additional organizational records.
Documents, Statements & Publications
This archive will collect and index organization-issued constitutions, bylaws, declarations, statements, press releases, publications, speeches, event records and other primary material where provenance and rights permit.
Media Coverage
Chinese-language and international reporting about CFDPUS will be indexed separately from historical PFDC coverage, with outlet, date, author where known, people mentioned, source URL and evidence classification.
Historical Website & Digital Preservation
The current public website is cfdpus.org. FreeChina.live will preserve citation metadata and rights-cleared archival material while clearly distinguishing the official organization website from this independent research archive.
Research & Evidence Notes
FreeChina.live uses evidence labels including VERIFIED FACT, VERIFIED ARCHIVAL COPY, ORGANIZATION SELF-DESCRIPTION, CONTEMPORANEOUS MEDIA REPORT, LATER RECOLLECTION, UNDER VERIFICATION and DISPUTED. A shared organizational name is not sufficient to establish continuity between separate entities.

Public Contact
Official website: cfdpus.org. Public organization material identifies Chen Ming (陈明) as chairman. A general organization-wide public email address and telephone number have not yet been independently verified for this archive, so none is published here. Author/editor contact details appearing on individual website accounts are not automatically treated as the organization’s official general contact.
Corrections & Contribute Materials
Researchers, organization representatives, former members, journalists and members of the public may submit primary documents, leadership records, corrections and provenance information for review.
