Danwei Noon Report
Rui'an protests documented onlinePosted by Jeremy Goldkorn, September 12, 2006 11:45 AM
Danwei Noon Report is a daily roundup of new and old media coverage about China from Chinese and English sources. Videos of Rui'an protestsShort videos of clashes between protesters and armed police in Rui'an are circulating online. The protests stem from student dissatisfaction over the official response to an alleged suicide of their teacher, Dai Haiqing, but have expanded into a large, occasionally destructive popular demonstration in front of Rui'an government buildings (see ESWN for details and photos). A popular video hosted on the Tudou server was pulled for content-related reasons, but other videos are popping up elsewhere - here are some hosted on the photobucket site; Youtube also has one. There is also a bbs linked off of the memorial site for Dai Haiqing on the online obituary website Netor. There's also a story about the affair on the International Herald Tribune website here. UPDATE: ESWN has more reportage from Chinese bloggers about this affair. Tesco in China Tesco is preparing to bring its own brand of noodles to Chinese consumers as part of the British retailer’s plans to launch up to 500 own-label “value” products through its Chinese joint venture in the coming months.
It seems to me that people in China bear the same general mix of sentiments toward America. Fewer and fewer hold our country’s political system in high esteem, though, and seldom does anyone question whether the Bush Administration is getting what they deserve in Iraq and Afghanistan - baoying. In fact, that’s practically a non-issue. (Link, see also this People's Daily page about 9-11)
Chairman Mao's son made an unexpected reappearance into public life at the weekend with a long eulogy to his father on the 30th anniversary of his death. (Link; the eulogy is on the People's Daily - in Chinese ) Feng Xiaogang's Banquet, Jia Zhangke's Still Life etc. Penguin books in China
