New song “Leader of the people” by the Central Propaganda Department called Xi Jinping as a “helmsman”.
Only Mao Zedong was called “A great helmsman.” by the Chinese Communist Party.
(28 May)The song “Leader of the people” was released by the Chinese government, promoted via a phone app, “Study the motherland” and suggested that the song be sung at meetings of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) and the National People’s Congress (NPC). The whole MTV is about Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the Communist Party of China, with picture of Xi from his youth. A songwriter stated he looked back on how tough the path for Xi Jinping leading citizens to achieve the “Chinese dream” and how much contribution of Xi Jinping. He strongly believes Xi Jinping is a good leader.
Since the elimination of term-limits of the General Secretary in 2018, it’s the third song for “Leader of the people”. A new adjective in this song is “helmsman”. In the history of China, using “helmsman” last time to praise the leader was in the cultural revolution. Mao Zedong described as “great teacher, great leader, great command, great helmsman”, which was the “four Great”.

Textbook used in Victorian schools repeats Chinese government propaganda
Among the concerns regarding the textbook is the inclusion of the “nine-dash line” map which shows China claiming most of the South China Sea – a position contested by Australia and numerous othrr countries in the region and challenged by an international tribunal. It is labelled in the book as the “map of China”.
The publishers said that its inclusion was a production error.
On top of this misleading information, the textbook also included portions that repeated Chinese Communist party propaganda.

Chinese state broadcaster CGTN fined £225,000 by UK regulator
Ofcom, the media regulator, has fined China Global Television Network (CGTN), China’s state broadcaster, £225,000 for breaching rules on fairness, privacy and due impartiality just weeks after it stripped the network of its right to air in the
UK.
Ofcom had previously found CGTN guilty of airing allegedly forced confessions made by British citizen Peter Humphrey as well as coverage of protests in Hong Kong that failed to present other viewpoints to that of Beijing.
CGTN network’s licence to air was revoked in the UK last month after concluding that it was editorially controlled by the Chinese Communist party, provoking Beijing to retaliate by banning the BBC’s World News channel.
