Fujian tea ceremony Wikipedia JL

2003

Last time during class, we mentioned that tea is one of the big productions in Fujian. Therefore, I

decided to look for tea-related articles. This site that I found talks about the tea ceremony in Fujian.

Last year I attended to a Japanese tea ceremony demonstration in the Reeve Center, so I thought that

it would be interesting to compare the Fujian tea ceremony with the Japanese tea ceremony.

China Pushes Popular Vote For Trade Union Heads World PC

2003
XINHUA

The All-China Federation of Trade Unions (ACFTU), the leading trade union organization, is drafting a

regulation on a popular vote for chairman of grassroots trade unions, an ACFTU official said Thursday.




The ACFTU will promote the popular vote to elect grassroots trade unions' chairmen as a main task in

the next few years, said Guo Wencai, head of the ACFTU department in charge of grassroots

organization build-up.



At most trade unions, the president or chairman is elected by a standing committee or executive

committee, elected by trade union members.



With the popular vote, all members of a trade union will vote to elect their chairman, considered

another step for the country's grassroots democracy as the country has 1.34 billion trade union

members.



Popular votes have been carried out by some trade unions in more developed coastal provinces such

as Guangdong, Fujian, Zhejiang and Shandong provinces.
