Editor's note: The national anthem of PRC, “March of the Volunteers” is actually a revolutionary song. The lyrics of the song is about standing up and resisting the enemies, which is encouraging and motivational. It is quite ironic to see Chinese netizens using the lyrics of their own national anthem to show their dissentience towards the authority which tried to cover up the outbreak of WARS, but turns out to be banned.

Chinese man held over #racist videos and claims his aims to spread Chinese culture

A Chinese filmmaker wanted by Malawi as part of an investigation into allegations of racism and child exploitation has been arrested.

#LuKe was a #Malawi resident when he was exposed by #BBC #AfricaEye, which reported he had used local children to film personalised greetings videos, some of which included racist content.

These videos can be bought for up to $70 (£55) on Chinese social media and internet platforms.

Lu Ke denied making derogatory videos.

He said he made his videos in order to spread Chinese culture to the local community.
In one of the videos seen by the BBC, a group of young children is made to chant - in Chinese - "I'm a black monster. My IQ is low", clearly unaware of what they are saying.//
