I don't know if it is still policy there, but I'd heard they'd tried to
censor electronic music in the past for being too bourgeouis, presumably
because most Chinese can't afford synthesizers. Now this isn't a uniquely
Chinese problem, other Asian countries have rumbled in the past about
western music exciting too many passions - just as there were complaint in
30s America that 'Jas' was an evil tool of Africans to corrupt the morals of
white maidenhood.

They're a bizarre bunch of extremists...Mind you Saudi Arabia is not much
better, but they have oil and spend money to buy western arms, so that's all
right, then. (warning: sarcasm alert). Well i don't want to go on about
political stuff. I only mentioned Afghanistan because this is a music list
and AFAIK Afghanistan is the first country ever to ban music within its
borders.
