Beijing has lavished praise on the city of Philadelphia after it raised the flag of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) in ceremonies held on and around the communist regime’s Oct. 1 National Day.
China News Net, a state-controlled outlet, published an article calling Philadelphia a “red Yan’an,” alluding to the city where the Chinese Communist Party was headquartered prior to seizing power over the whole country in 1949. The article was reposted by the PRC State Council’s Overseas Chinese Affairs Office.
