2026年7月1日，《民族团结进步促进法》正式施行。藏人、维吾尔人团体在联合国警告该法将文化抹除合法化，联合国人权专家称其可能严重影响少数民族的语言、文化和宗教自主。
On March 12, 2026, the National People's Congress passed the Law on Promoting National Unity and Progress, stipulating that schools and government agencies must use Mandarin as their primary language. From preschool to high school, Mandarin will be used for instruction, while Tibetan, Uyghur, and Mongolian are phased out of core curricula.
In 2010, Forbes magazine ranked then CCP Central Committee General Secretary Hu Jintao as the world's most powerful person of the year.
Hu Jintao was born in Taizhou, Jiangsu, in 1942, during the chaotic years of the War of Resistance. When he was 7 years old, his mother died of illness, and his father, unable to support them, sent him and his sister to be raised by his aunt, enduring a childhood marked by war and the hardships of living under someone else's roof.
