May 20, 2008

Today's Information Times doesn't contain quake-related reporting on its front page, which makes it stand out from the rest that are still submerged in earthquake mourning.

The front page of the Guangzhou-based newspaper features a selection of photos about a police parade that took place in the city on Monday. The main photo shows policemen practicing shooting tear gas canisters. The three smaller photos on top show armored personal carriers, police personnel carrying new-model weapons, and a counter-terrorism drill.

According to the newspaper, the theme of the parade was "preparing for the Olympics and ensuring the safety of Guangdong."

At bottom-right, a notification says that the publication of a guide to the high school entrance exam will be postponed. The reason given is that "according to requirements from the top, this newspaper will fully devote itself to reporting the earthquake."

There are currently 5 Comments for Police parade in Guangzhou.

还是那句话,看清楚再指责人!当天信息时报推出了地震救灾的特刊,整个特刊是包夹着里面的主报(也就是大家看到的),这代表没有地震报道吗?

如果是别有用心的冤枉人,可以告诉你省省吧!

this is not a fact.

Maybe you just read the website of Information Times...As the matter of fact, there are 2 top news of Information Times in these days. All news about the earthquake are issued in a special A section more than 24 pages.

Tales of Old Hong Kong: The new Tales of Old Hong Kong compiled by Derek Sandhaus is available at Earnshaw Books.
Diamond Hill by Feng Chi-shun: Feng's memoir Diamond Hill describes an era of gambling and gangsters, Suzie Wong and squatter villages, fires and food stalls, and the Kowloon Walled City and its white powder. "A time when people were poor, but life was rich," he says. The world that he grew up in no longer exists, but his book - the first ever on the Diamond Hill refugee settlement, in either Chinese or English - offers a candid picture of what life was like for most Hong Kong residents in the 1950s.
William A. Callahan's China: The Pessoptimist Nation: China: The Pessoptimist Nation shows how the heart of Chinese foreign policy is not a security dilemma, but an identity dilemma. Through a careful analysis of how Chinese people understand their new place in the world, the book charts how Chinese identity emerges through the interplay of positive and negative feelings in a dynamic that intertwines China's domestic and international politics.
