Caijing, after all these yearsPosted by Jeremy Goldkorn on Thursday, January 15, 2004 at 11:00 PM
On the 18th of June 2002, FinanceAsia.com published a story by Dan Slater asking this question: "Cajing is a magnificent anomaly. But how long can it last if it keeps losing dubious defamation cases?" Caijing is still around. Here is the first paragraph of the story: Last month, Caijing, the crime-busting magazine leading the fight against financial malpractice on the Mainland, was sued in a Shenzhen court and lost. The plaintiff, Shenzhen Fountain had filed a defamation suit asking for RMB 3 million against the magazine and one of its freelance writers. The court ruled Caijing owed the company RMB 300 000. In the article, the author had accused the company of irregular accounting practices which had led to inflated profit figures."
Nonetheless, Caijing is still very much around, as Asian Labour News points out, herehere. |

+ 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.
