NTD's China Channel Launch - NTD for Chinese Living Behind the Firewall
|
On April 1, NTD is launching a new channel specifically for the mainland Chinese audience - NTD's China Channel. The channel will broadcast uncensored news, talk shows, and news feature programs, all popular programs for the mainland Chinese audience who "flip over the wall" (circumvent the Internet censorship firewall system in China). Viewers will be able to watch Zooming In, Focus Talk, Inside China, Life Talk, Mainland News Dissector, News Click, NTD World News and China's Forbidden News.
NTD's Internet-based China Channel comes as we wait for the restoration of our satellite broadcast to China. We would like to thank the Global Internet Freedom Consortium for developing the anti-censorship platforms FreeGate and UltraSurf that allow mainlanders to get around the firewall.
The URL for the China Channel is http://www.ntdtv.com/china/.

Qing Ming Festival or Tomb Sweeping Day - April 5
 The Qing Ming Festival (simplified Chinese: 清明节; traditional Chinese: 清明節) is a traditional Chinese holiday held on the 104th day after the winter solstice. It normally falls around April 5.
Qing Ming is a day to go out and enjoy spring, and also a day to attend to the graves of those who have passed.
In Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau the Qing Ming Festival has regularly been a national public holiday. In China the festival was reinstated in 2008 after being suppressed in 1949 when the communists took power.
There are a number of English translations for this festival:
- Tomb Sweeping Day
- Clear Bright Festival
- Festival for Tending Graves
- Ancestors Day
- Grave Sweeping Day
- Chinese Memorial Day
- Spring Remembrance
- All Souls Day (not the Roman Catholic holiday)
