And this is why they are starting to install CCTVs in classrooms in China, and also why the Chinese are born without luck when it comes to engaging in rational debate, or in fact to cultivate rational thinking, let alone accessing democracy and freedom.

China Pushes 85% of Population Speaking Putonghua by 2025 Even Among Ethnic Minorities
The #PRCgovernment is stepping up efforts to popularize #Putonghua in China, claiming that the use of putonghua remains “unbalanced and inadequate” and needs to be improved to meet the demands of the modern economy.
For the first time, the #PRC government named the two Special Administrative Regions, #HongKong and #Macau, for the new policy.
On November 30, the General Office of the State Council issued a set of new policies on language for #PRC, “Opinions of the General Office of the State Council on Comprehensively Strengthening Language and Writing Work in the New Era (é—ść–Ľĺ…¨éť˘ĺŠ ĺĽ·ć–°ć™‚ä»ŁčŞžč¨€ć–‡ĺ—工作的意見)”.
The policy stressed the importance of speaking and using a standardized language, saying that the authorities will “unswervingly" promote the usage among ethnic minorities and in rural areas.
It also set a goal for the national penetration rate of Putonghua to reach 85% by 2025. Along with the 2025 goal, the policy aims to make Putonghua virtually universal by 2035, including in rural areas and among #EthnicMinorities.
The media described the new order as an “aggressive push” to the Chinese regional dialects such as #Cantonese and #Hokkien under even greater pressure, along with #minority languages such as #Tibetan, #Mongolian and #Uyghur.
Critics have protested the changes to the education system and employment requirements that have steadily eroded the role of minority languages. They call it a campaign to eradicate cultures that do not conform with the dominant ethnic group.
