During China’s annual Qingming Festival, also known as “Tomb Sweeping Day,” Chinese people repair and clean the graves of dead relatives as part of an ancient custom to ensure a peaceful afterlife. They also leave offerings of food, fake money and liquor. Under Mao, the practice of leaving offerings to the dead was suppressed, but it was quickly reinstated once he was no longer in power. In 2008, the festival was made a national holiday, and last year 520 million Chinese visited cemeteries – almost all bearing some kind of gift. Traditional gifts include fake money and paper bags of clothing. But in recent years, people are now giving paper representations of TV sets, washing machines, houses and luxury cars.

Shenzhen Subway to Introduce In-Train Wi-Fi to Stop People Using Own Wifi Hotspot

Randy Cheung, Apr 7, 2013 4:42 PM, 326 views, Got something to say ?,

Passengers on Shenzhen’s subway system will soon be able to access high-speed internet via wifi transmitters installed in stations and trains. The service is due to be rolled out in June. The speed of the network will be two to four times faster than traditional networks, but will still be exceedingly slow compared with global standards. The official wifi network will also solve the problem that was encountered last year when several trains were halted due to the interference with passengers’ portable Wi-Fi devices. The train system suffered a signal interference because it uses 2.4GHz band, which is a free band open to public for Wifi channel. The Shenzhen subway has 3G radio coverage, but the rise in popularity of wifi hotspot devices is causing the problem. Obviously, the subway in major Chinese cities are lacking extensive testing of subway communication systems. We hope an official Wi-Fi hotspot will be the right solution.
