Abstract
In recent years, China has been increasing the scale and strength of its international communications. The ‘Decision of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Deepening Cultural Industry Reform, Promoting the Vigorous Development of Socialist Culture and Other Major Issues’ was adopted at the Sixth Plenary Session of the 17th Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party in 2011. The decision states that ‘to enhance the spread and influence of advanced socialist culture, it is necessary to accelerate the construction of a modern communications system featuring advanced technology, rapid transmission and wide coverage’, and stresses that it is necessary to ‘strengthen the construction of Party newspapers and magazines, news agencies, radio and TV stations and important publishers’, thus ‘strengthening the building of international communications capabilities and creating world-class media’. Currently, China’s international communications media are classified into three categories: state-level media, provincial and local media, and other media. State-level international radio and TV media include China Radio International (CRI), China Central Television News (CCTV-NEWS), CCTV-4, and China Xinhua News Network Corporation International, under the Xinhua News Agency; provincial and local media include Guangxi Television, JSBC International, Xinjiang Ethnic Language Radio and Television, Heilongjiang Television, Chongqing Television, and Hunan Television; and other media include China Great Wall Television and China Yellow River TV Station.
