Are Plastinated Bodies Murdered Chinese Prisoners of Conscience? | China Uncensored
A new article in the Weekly Standard by China researcher Ethan Gutmann asks the question: do the plastinated bodies in Body Worlds and rival exhibit Bodies: the Exhibition come from murdered Falun Gong prisoners of conscience? Body Worlds creator Gunther Von Hagens and his former right hand man Sui Hongjin set up their plastination factory in Dalian City, Liaoning Province in 1999, the same year as the start of a nationwide crackdown of Falun Gong adherents in China. And with no functioning organ donation system in China, and the greatest number of disappearances of Falun Gong practitioners happened in Liaoning, many have wondered if there's a connection. Ethan Gutmann has come up with a solution that could clear Von Hagen of these accusations that have dogged him for years-DNA testing of his still preserved corpses.

Beijing Lapdogs - China
May 2006
They were banned during the cultural revolution, perceived as bourgeoisie. But now pet dogs are making a comeback in China where they are seen as child substitutes.
We look after our son when it's necessary but our dog suffered a lot before so we love him more, states one woman. For many families limited by the one-child policy, dogs have become the new children. The pet market in China is worth over $2 bn. But there is a downside to the dog explosion. Rabies has become the most dangerous infectious disease in China, surpassing even AIDS. Ten per cent of Chinese dogs are thought to be infected and as many as 6,000 people a month are attacked by dogs in Beijing.

05/24/2018: China’s demographic transition: dividends and challenges
According to China's National Bureau of Statistics, 17.2 million children were born in 2017 which is 630,000 less than the previous year. China's total fertility rate, an estimated 1.6 children per woman in 2017, is below the rate needed to keep the population steady. The number of working population between the ages of 15 and 59 has dropped by almost 40 million in the last five years.
What are the challenges therein and what is being done to cope with that trend if it is not stoppable?

Broken Angel: Spoiled kids spoil glass artwork in Shanghai
An artwork on display at the Shanghai Museum of Glass was the casualty of a mother’s lack of control over her kids. “Angel Is Waiting” depicts a pair of wings made of glass, which were damaged by two visiting boys.
Surveillance camera footage shows the mother snapping pictures of her boys who have crossed the rope barriers protecting the piece. The duo is seen jumping and bouncing and touching the sculpture in plain sight, until a part of it was yanked out.
The piece had been intact since 2014 when it first debuted at the museum. After the incident, the artist changed the name of the work to “Broken” and left it in its spoiled state on display, along with the clip of the accident.

Nanking Massacre:One of the darkest periods in Chinese history
The Nanjing Massacre continues to hold a deep resonance in the hearts of people across China. In a period of just six weeks during the Japanese occupation of the city in December 1937, some 300,000 people were brutally killed by Japanese forces. Even today, the horrific events of the past cast a shadow over ties between the two countries. With this year marking the 70th anniversary of the end of the Second World War, we look back at the massacre, which was one of the darkest periods in Chinese history.

15. SOUNDBITE: (Mandarin) vox pop, Wang Dongyan, Beijing resident:

16. People watching mass on large screen outside church
17. Wide tilt-up exterior of the church
STORYLINE:
Thousands of people attended Catholic mass at a church in Beijing on Thursday to celebrate the eve of Christmas.
More than one thousand Chinese entered the Xuanwu Catholic Church in western Beijing to attend the mass while around another thousand watched it on big screens outside because of limited space inside the church.
The western Christian festival of Christmas is emerging as one of the most popular celebrations in China in recent years and many Chinese go to church to learn about the Christian religion.
One church-goer, Hu Xiaoshuo, said she hoped Christianity''s popularity would increase in China.
Some attended the service for the tradition of the festival, rather than for any religious reason.
Wang Dongyan, who said he had learnt about Christmas through the internet, was attending with a view to pray for a greater progress in (his) career and life in the coming year.
Official statistics shows today there are more than 16 (m) million Christians and over five thousand official churches in China.
However, this does not take into account the many Christians who worship outside the official churches, which are under the control of the state.
The Chinese government allows worship only at churches run by the Chinese Patriotic Catholic Association, but millions belong to underground churches loyal to the Vatican.
Although the Chinese state churches recognise the Pope as a spiritual leader, they appoint their own priests and bishops.
