Classic Danwei posts
+ Korean history doesn't fly on Chinese TV screens (2007.09): SARFT puts the kibbosh on Korean historical dramas. + Religion and government in an uneasy mix (2008.03): Phoenix Weekly (凤凰周刊) article from October, 2007, on government influence on religious practice in Tibet. + David Moser on Mao impersonators (2004.10): I first became aware of this phenomenon in 1992 when I turned on a Beijing TV variety show and was jolted by the sight of "Mao Zedong" and "Zhou Enlai" playing a game of ping pong. They both gave short, rousing speeches, and then were reverently interviewed by the emcee, who thanked them profusely for taking time off from their governmental duties to appear on the show.

Comments on Live streaming from Danwei event
Nice event last night. Substantive and entertaining.
Thanks for last night's event, nice job, it was inspiring and informative for China entrepreneurial enthusiasts like myself.
Where can I catch up with this substantive and entertaining night if I missed it?
That was a great event with competent speakers, interesting topic and questions. Great moderation by Jeremy.
Just some constructive comments for the next event:
- No need to use the "F word" so often. The speakers can still be funny without using dirty words.
- Limit to one question per person from the public asked within 20 seconds to avoid people like the last guy to speak for 5 minutes without making a point and hurting the value of the conference. That was quite pathetic to listen to that lad making a fool of himself.
