"Some asked for medicine, some for food, and many were crying out for hospital treatment. I deleted these videos while crying myself. I felt I was doing something evil but there was nothing I could do. That was my job, and I had to do it" — internet censor read.mangmang.run/p/c8d
This March, I visited Tokyo, where a new community of Chinese expat are opening bookstores, attending lectures, and imagining alternatives to Xi's China from the relative safety of Japan. My latest in @newyorker: newyorker.com/news/dispatch/…
What a different 20 years makes: 13 million Chinese sat for the college entrance exam, the gaokao, on Friday. Reporters asked if the test could change destinies. The resounding response: "No." "Twenty years ago, it could," one responded. Now, only rich, powerful relatives can.
Early Chinese internet seems to be disappearing...Only 1 search result on Jack Ma from 1998 to 2005.
fascinating CENSORED article on the death of the early Chinese internet: Set search parameters between 1998-2005 on Baidu and you'll find exactly one (1) result for Jack Ma. Similarly barren for Pony Ma, Lei Jun, Sister Furong, Jay Chou, Li Yuchun, etc. chinadigitaltimes.net/chinese/708143…
"frustrated elite aspirant" That's... a shockingly apt phrase for me
For @NewYorker this week: How to thrive in the American elite -- while declaring it your enemy. History suggests this is more than hypocrisy; the era of "intraelite conflict," as scholars call it, should be an alarm bell. Image by the great @JavierJaenB newyorker.com/magazine/2024/…
A full list of words China came up with during the 3-year pandemic period. It's a striking reminder of just how intensely the Chinese Communist Party employs language, and its reinvention, as a tool of governance.
🎉We’re excited to unveil Scout, our new discovery tool for Chinese writing on science and technology. Scout makes it easy to keep up with the latest and find new perspectives. To start using our free, user-friendly web interface and e-mail service, visit scout.eto.tech!
Update: I'll be in New York City until mid-August working on some U.S. news. Then I'll fly back to Asia to cover China again. If you're in the city and want to grab coffee etc., please shout!

Li Qiang is China's No. 2 — A look back at his career and his record: w/ @KeithBradsher nytimes.com/2023/03/13/bus…
TSMC, the world’s biggest maker of advanced computer chips, is upgrading and expanding a new factory in Arizona. But to some at the company, the $40 billion project is a bad business decision, @JohnLiuNN and paulmozur write. nyti.ms/3Sle1bn
China’s abrupt pivot from zero-Covid, with nearly no explanation, forced Chinese to make up their own theory about what happened. The sense-making is causing a public rift, between defenders of the old zero-Covid and supporters of the new post-Covid era. nytimes.com/2023/01/11/wor…
In summer 2020, I planned to move back to Japan but because of a pandemic-induced 鎖国, I couldn't enter. I ended up moving to China and now write bout China full-time. Funny how life works out. But now I'm back! 1/22-1/29: would love to connect with anyone who's around!
Business and leisure travelers alike welcomed China’s plan to loosen quarantine rules for visitors, but the delight is tempered by lingering concerns about the country’s Covid wave. w/@Changxche @fu_claire et al. nytimes.com/2022/12/28/wor…
