The U.S. government's Commission on International Religious Freedom (C.I.R.F.) has issued its 2008 report on the countries it alleges are the worst violators of the right to worship freely.

The panel agrees with the State Department that Burma, China and Sudan are among the worst offenders, along with North Korea, Eritrea, Iran, Saudi Arabia and Uzbekistan. But Commission chairman Michael Cromartie says his group has urged Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to add Pakistan, Turkmenistan and Vietnam to the list.

"The commission is convinced that the governments in these countries either have not halted repression or violence amounting to severe violations of freedom of religion, or at least they failed to punish those responsible for perpetuating such acts.

The panel traveled to Vietnam recently and met with government officials, as well as imprisoned religious leaders. They told commission member Leonard Leo that Vietnam's ethnic minority Buddhists and Protestants are often harassed, beaten, detained and arrested.

Note：
1. the right to worship freely，freely是个副词，做动词worship 的状语，是“自由信仰宗教的权利”。
2. Vietnam's ethnic minority Buddhists
越南少数民族的佛教徒
（越南最大的民族好像是京族，穿着我们象旗袍似的民族服装（上衣是旗袍式，还要穿长裤的），我还用她们的料子做过一条裙子呢。）
