The Chinese communist regime has recently put out regulations that require acting agents—including those from Taiwan, Macau, and Hong Kong working in China—to be certified in mainland China. The agents, as well as the actors they represent, must swear allegiance to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)’s constitution. Taiwanese lawmakers warn that the artists may be punished in the mainland for their speeches.
The Chinese regime put out the revised “Administrative Measures for Acting Agents” on Dec. 24, stipulating that agents must pass a qualification examination starting from March 2022. They must support the CCP’s constitution and have so-called “good political quality.”
