Vice-Premier Huang Ju diesPosted by Jeremy Goldkorn, June 2, 2007 1:31 PM
Chinese state media today reported that Huang Ju (黄菊), Vice-Premier of the State Council, died of illness at 02:03 a.m. June 2 in Beijing at the age of 69.
The official obituary called Huang "an excellent member of the CPC, a long-tested and faithful Communist fighter and an outstanding leader of the Party and the state." In May this year, the government denied that Huang had died after reports of his death were published in Hong Kong. Huang had been suffering from pancreatic cancer, but state media said that he died of "illness" without specifying a cause. UPDATE: From Richard Spencer, blogging Beijing correspondent of The Daily Telegraph: Huang Ju is finally officially dead It's a quirky thing, but Mr Huang played a certain and rather odd role in developing China-UK relations...
