PRC Net Info-Benefit : Full Text Newspaper Searches
Citation: Search engines on the websites of central government Chinese-language publications such as the Peoples Daily and of lesser-known provincial newspapers such as Henan Ribao make it easy to obtain dozens of recent articles in which keywords such as 揺conomy? 揘orth Korea? or 揺nvironmental protection? occur. The full Chinese text of a recent interview by the People抯 Daily Pyonyang correspondent with North Korean rocket scientists, for example, can be retrieved in just a few moments. U.S. mirror sites of People抯 Daily and the English-language China Daily considerably speed access for users in the United States. Between August 1 and November 30, 1998, the People抯 Daily carried 1235 or about ten articles per day which mentioned the United States. Over the same period People抯 Daily carried seventeen Y2K computer bug articles while Wenhui Bao [Shanghai] carried twenty-three. Nanfang Ribao [Guangzhou] has carried just four articles on Y2K during 1998, the first of which appeared on July 23. Computer industry journals carried far more articles mentioning Y2K. China Computerworld had 110 articles and China Computer News had 200 articles mentioning Y2K as of November 30.

Citation: Summary: The Chinese government and some Chinese both inside and outside China have been fighting an "information skirmish" on the Internet for over three years. The Chinese government filters the flow of information into China. Dissident groups mail thousands of electronic periodicals into China. They constantly switch originating addresses to evade filtering. Some foreign websites are blocked but Chinese surfers often use proxy servers to evade the Great Red Firewall. Email from China cannot reach certain foreign addresses but using a foreign email account (such as Hotmail) can solve that problem. The old Chinese saying "For every measure taken on high there is a counter measure down below" is illustrated by the wide use of anti-filtering countermeasures. Many Chinese government rules such as the October 1999 net rules banning foreign news articles on Chinese websites have short half-lives. Even banned books sometimes appear in full text on PRC web sites.

Citation: An August 1998 report [22Kb] from U.S.Embassy Beijing. Summary: Sharp declines in natural reservoirs such as forests and lakes, increased silting of rivers and lakes from the de-treed lands in the Yangtze basin, and steady encroachment on river beds by Chinese farmers have combined to push the flood waters to record levels during Summer 1998. [...] Clashing local economic interests, corruption, and poor coordination and communication combine to make land use planning and enforcement difficult. ; Cited from the

Description: A sequence of 24 Chinese propaganda posters (including a few stamps), collected by Olivier Laude, editor of the Atlas Magazine, and showing "images of revolutionaries, babies with peaches, generals on horses and babies with fishes" "These posters are used to decorate the walls of schools, private homes and government institutions. They are produced by the central government in Beijing and reflect the many political changes of the past 47 years of communist rule. They are in many ways a very good historical record of theeconomic, political and social turmoils China has undergone since 1949. They also are tools of the central government's propaganda machine" (from Olivier Laude's introduction to "Chinese Pop Posters"). The site has an informative introduction, and most of the posters are commented on. Unfortunately no general index is provided, so you have to browse the posters one by one.
