(Xinhua)
Updated: 2009-04-22 21:34 BEIJING -- Chinese authorities launched a nationwide crackdown Wednesday on illegal and pornographic publications, destroying 46.85 million items. The crackdown covered the country's 31 provinces, cities and autonomous regions, according to the National Anti-Pornography and Anti-Illegal Publications Office.
Guangdong Province had the largest number at 10 million, the office said. On April 12, the office began a national crackdown on obscene audio-visual products, confiscating nearly 3 million discs during a 10-day period. Jiang Jianguo, a senior official from the office, said the government wanted to purify the social environment and fulfill its commitment against pirated content to the world community. "This has become a world issue that requires more international cooperation," Jiang added. |
