June 4, 1989 -- when college student revolutionaries rose against the government and the famous picture of Man vs. Tank took place -- is cynically referred to by IT professionals as "Chinese Internet Maintenance Day," according to one of the comments posted at this article.

It's inevitable that the Chinese government will carefully filter out any news that would hurt themselves, or in this case something that reminds people of past events. But I've noticed that China has been reporting a lot about the crisis Egypt - Chinese television news often has the events in Egypt as the top story and reports them first in the news.

By the way, Happy Chinese Year!

It is a pity the lack of press freedoms in China despite article 35 of the PRC's constitution which "citizens of the People's Republic of China enjoy freedom of speech, of the press, of assembly, of association, of procession, and of demonstration" (http://english.gov.cn/2005-08/05/content_20813.htm) But the situation is improving, unlike Israel where they are talking about an Anti-Incitement Bill which "criminalises those who publish anything that denies Israel's Jewish and democratic character". A state where which you're required to call democratic is not a democracy. (http://english.aljazeera.net/indepth/features/2011/02/201126123643463123.html)
