Ronald Bannon MBA, C.Adm., FCMC's curator insight, May 31, 2015 11:10 PM

The Chinese government aggressively censors the Internet, blocking many sites it deems could challenge the rule of the Communist Party or threaten stability, including popular Western sites like YouTube, Instagram and Facebook, as well as Google Inc's main search engine and Gmail service. Police in some 50 areas, from metropolises like Beijing and Shanghai to more obscure cities like Xuzhou in Jiangsu province, will open accounts on sites including Weibo, China's answer to Twitter, the ministry said late on Sunday.

Caleb Chia's curator insight, May 9, 2015 2:53 AM

The best anti-thesis to the notion that domestic Chinese brands are often shunned by Chinese citizens. Although food safety still remains a concern, the progress made by China in its domestic manufacturing in terms of product quality and improving customers' brand perceptions will go a long way in stimulating domestic consumption - a key prerequisite for China's economic rebalancing to reduce its reliance on export-driven growth.
