Chinese authorities have announced a “blacklist” for karaoke songs that will go into effect at the start of October, according to state-run media.
"On the list are songs containing content that endangers national unity, sovereignty or territorial integrity; violates China's religious policies and spreads cults and superstitions; and advocates obscenity, gambling, violence and drug-related crimes or instigating crimes," Xinhua announced earlier this week, citing the country’s Ministry of Culture and Tourism. The government has not yet made the list public.More Related News
