CHINA-INTERNAL: MAOIST GROUP DEMONSTRATES IN HONGKONG
Chinese authorities disclosed that dozens of mainland Maoists headed across the border last week for a demonstration to mark the 52nd anniversary of the start of the Cultural Revolution. The march was organised by Hong Kong’s Mao Zedong Thought Society, an organisation registered in Kowloon City district. Addressing around 100 Hong Kong delegates and advisers to the national legislature at Beijing’s liaison office on May , Qu Qingshan, deputy head of the Party’s History and Literature Research Institute, said Beijing’s change of ideology was key to its survival. He said “One problem with the Soviet Communist Party was its lack of new ideology and theory after Vladimir Lenin and Joseph Stalin. But the Chinese Communist Party has built up its own ideology to meet the changing times and social conditions.”
