3) The Chinese Communist Party Central Committee has issued a ruling regarding the “putting in order mass media organs”

Our correspondent reports from the Homeland: on March 25 the Chinese Central Committee issued a new rulings about the mass media. It demanded to reconsider and to “put in order” the mass media organs, such as journals, magazines etc., published in the Uighur Autonomous Region. The official statement says: “ The national separatists abroad attempt to gain control of the internal mass media organs. They cause serious threats to the national security and stability. We need to tighten the control over publishing and distribution of the journals and newspapers. The journals and newspapers, which cause problems, should be put in order. If necessary, their publication should be halted.”
According to this statement, the process of “cleansing” newspapers and magazines started on March 26 in Urumchi city. Presently 118 newspapers, magazines and bulletins are published in Urumchi, whereas 80% of them are distributed openly, with the rest published for party organs and members under the heading “for internal use only”.
