The Tibetan Centre for Human Rights and Democracy (TCHRD) unveiled this morning the much-awaited website to decode Chinese Communist Party (CCP) slogans and jargon at a press conference held at the Press Club of India in New Delhi.
A Chinese Ministry of Education (MoE) decree went into force this month to teach Mandarin Chinese to all preschool children, an extension of Xi Jinping’s belief in catching them young, noting the significance of language learning in the early years, and discounting the purpose of bilingual education of helping children ease into the school system.
Tibetan Centre for Human Rights and Democracy is shortly due to launch its Decoding CCP, a reliable guide to almost 500 propaganda jargon keywords, for both English and Tibetan readers. Tibetans have lived alongside their much bigger and more powerful Chinese neighbour for many centuries, and really know how Chinese leaders think.
TCHRD has been informed by a reliable source that Chinese security forces detained 60 Tibetans on 23 August from Wonpo village in Dzachuka area and took them for a two-day interrogation 70 km away in Sershul (Ch: Shiqu) County, Kardze (Ch: Ganzi) Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, in the Tibetan province of Kham.
The Communist Party of China’s Central Propaganda Department announced the launch of a campaign to crack down on illegal online activities and fake news.
