Interesting information. This is much better than the supporting information I had seen earlier (debunked story about HIV genes being spliced in, etc., etc.) From what I've seen, the Chinese government has a very authoritarian mindset, and assume any hint of pushback is a sign of agitators. They tend to obstruct all investigation, even when they're not trying to hide anything specific. They try and get anything even mildly embarrassing out of the news as quickly as possible by stonewalling. I was in China 2 months before the melamine milk scandal broke, and even after the story broke, they tried to suppress information, even though I'm not aware that there were ever any government connections to the scandal. They just hated the embarrassment.
