Classical China, Classical KoolaidPosted by Tsingsong on Monday, June 28, 2004 at 6:15 PM
For the People's Daily, this is a special year! It's the 83rd anniversary of the founding of the Chinese Communist Party, the PRC's 55th anniversary, the 70th anniversary of the Long March, and the 100 anniversary of Deng Xiaoping's birth. The CCP's birthday is on July 1, so the People's Daily has started publishing a series of editorials, called 'Classical China', on new China's progress and achievements. Splendor always stays and becomes even newer - Today's brilliance starts from here - The production of summer grain crops in Henan increases and the income of peasants increases accordingly Top photo: The Bund in Shanghai; Headlines from other newspapers are below: Beijing Morning Post 北京晨报 Beijing Youth Daily 北京青年报 Beijing Daily Messenger 北京娱乐信报 The Beijing News 新京报 Headlines of yesterday's evening newspapers: Beijing Evening News 北京晚报 Shanghai Xinmin Evening News 新民晚报 |

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.
