Wang Sichao, a researcher and planetary astronomer at the Purple Hills Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said that he believes extraterrestrial beings do exist and their UFOs have the ability to visit our earth. However, he disagrees with British scientist Stephen Hawking, who believes an encounter with aliens would spell disaster to human beings.
Wang has done the astronomical observation work for 39 years and he publicized his opinion on a science forum held in Guangzhou today.

Also note, why would %100 government controlled media release such information to public?! For the fun of it?! I don't think so... you need to read between the lines sometimes, after all... specially when it's from a very suppressed country!
That's NOT to say he has no proof, just nothing they'll publicly release just yet or never documented.

this is a far cry from the last thread of "China to reveal ET!"
A few points:
1.) Stephen Hawking has said some of the stupidest crap i've ever heard, so i have to agree with this astronomer at least on the theoretical point that *IF* aliens have or ever will visit earth, it won't be to wipe us out.
2.) This guy has nothing but a theory. There is no fact to back up his claims, there is no science behind this at all. It's some schmuck with a fancy title making claims with nothing to back it up.
He's been observing for 39 years? Woopty do. While that's definitely a cool job, it's still a far cry from credibility about extra terrestrial life.
"I look at stars, so i know about Aliens" is like saying "I make ice sculptures, so i can fix your car"
It's all non sense to me...no offense OP
