I have noticed that China is very good about covering things up. Everything that can play against them they erase from history completely, so that nobody even knows about it. For example about famine in my previous post and Tienanmen Square protests. I was very surprised that people in China have no idea what happened in Tienanmen Square. History is very important for each country, as one famous saying goes "...Those who don't remember history, are doomed to repeat it..." So, i think in a way it is really bad to keep important historical events away from people. Of course for the communist government it is to their advantage, but i think it will get back at them one day.
