Several hundreds of Chinese college students marched onto the streets in Xi'an, capital of northwest China's Shaanxi Province, Thursday noon to protest three Japanese students to humiliate Chinese people by giving obscene performance at campus, according to the spokesman of the provincial bureau of education.

The spokesman said that starting from Thursday noon, thousands of students from the Northwest China University held demonstrations in the campus to protest the obscene performances by the three Japanese students and a Japanese teacher, who are studying and teaching at the university, at an evening party held by the university's foreign language school on Wednesday evening. Several hundreds of students also marched onto the streets to express their strong indignation.

The three Japanese students, as well as the teacher reportedly wore brassieres and hung false genitals at their waists, and they also threw scraps of paper from the underwear to audience and gave obscene dances at the party on Wednesday. The students and teachers of the university immediately stopped their performances.

At noon on Thursday, thousands of Chinese students gathered in front of the university's foreign students dormitory to demand the Japanese students to apologize, according to the spokesman.

At 18:40, several hundreds of students walked out the school to a square at the downtown Xi'an and presented their petitions to the local government, insisting the Japanese students should apologize in public.

The students returned to the university at about 22:00, the spokesman said.
