CHINA-INTERNAL: POLITICAL/LEADERSHIP

 To commemorate Mao Zedong's 40th death anniversary on September 9, 2016, tens of thousands of people flocked to the hometown of China's late leader in Shao­shan in Hunan province.  Amidst tight security, thousands gathered in Shaoshan's main square where a bronze statue of Mao rises 10 metres into the air. Supporters knelt down and recalled the “good old days”.

There was a similar outpouring of affection in Vancouver, Canada, where many gathered to sing his praises.
