A Reuters article in today's Washington Post reports on the two-week visit on the Archbishop of Cantebury Rowan Williams to China. He has talked with government officials on issues of concern such as the environment, an aging society, censorship and the death penalty. On Sunday he held a service in Beijing and encouraged Chinese Christian leaders and intellectuals to play a role in discussions on China's public policy issues.
UPDATE: As the Archbishop of Cantebury ended his trip to China, Tuesday's London Times reports that human rights activists charge Williams did not press Chinese officials strongly enough on issues of religious freedom.
