Officials in a Chinese city near Beijing apologised after a state media journalist was prevented from covering a fatal explosion, an incident that underscores the difficulty of reporting in the world’s second-largest economy. A clip from state broadcaster China Central Television shows one of their reporters working near the scene of a blast resulting from a suspected gas leak that killed at least seven people on March 13 in Yanjiao town, just east of the capital. Midway through her report, local security officials block her camera and say “it’s too dangerous.” “Due to the frontline staff’s poor communication skills and rough and simplistic approaches, it has triggered a misunderstanding from media friends and questions from public opinion,” officials handling the disaster said in a statement on March 14. The government “immediately severely criticised the staff involved, and sent officers to express their apologies to the relevant journalist friends on several occasions.” China ranked 179th in the latest World Press Freedom Index, one spot above North Korea. Under President Xi Jinping, China has cut releases of official information and heightened its sensitivity over state secrets. That could lead to increasing risks for foreign firms as they contend with the increasingly catch-all definition of national security. Reporters can face harsh punishments for any violations. Australian journalist Cheng Lei said in 2023 that she was detained in China for nearly three years because she shared an official briefing document just before the government released it. The incident in Yanjiao has prompted some anger in China. The topic was one of the most-read on the social media site Weibo on March 14, attracting some 110 million views. “There are so many people that are closer to the site than the reporters, but you only choose to persuade the reporters to leave,” one Internet user said. A media industry organisation linked to the Communist Party has also criticised the local security officials for their handling of the matter. “Journalists have the right to conduct legitimate interviews,” the All-China Journalists Association said in a statement.

Weka posted:Chinese soybean production is basically unchanged since the ninties so idk what this talk about it getting destroyed is. Well maybe destroyed was a bit dramatic. The domestic market was shattered in the sense that the small soybean farmers ended up losing money in their entire year of hard works because the international soybean market was able to lowered the price right around their own harvest time. Not destroyed in the sense that the farmers have to sell their lands and move the whole families to city slums. You can't really sell farm lands in China like private property. Look at the China soybean import history, they went from minor soybean export in early 90s, to imported the same amount in the 2000, to import twice the amount as domestic production in 2008  Here is the import number from 2008 to 2022.  the import number tripled, from 35 mil ton to 100 mil ton per year. While the China domestic soybean keep roughly the same output, they only grow non-GMO food grade soybean, to eat and make tofu type food, and all kind of meat-like snake foods. Most of the imported soybean are GMO type for animal feed. Here is a meat consumption history, you can see it almost triple so that's where all the soybean went.  Here is the soybean price index, I think it supports what I remember, price went down from 95 to 2000 being lowest. And 2000 was when Sinograin was found  Also world soybean price spiked up after 2000 can explain why China kept the same amount of soybean production.

Thomson Reuters also has a big presence in collecting and selling data. They sell the software CLEAR to law enforcement, advertised as a collection of public records data used to assist investigations. Not surprised at all they have connection to the CIA.

Stephen That price dip is not as ahistorical as your graph makes it appear  And it is the American market, which doesn't appear to be strongly linked to the Chinese market, although I can't find 90's data for China.  Just the fact that Chinese soy is non-GMO for human consumption and imported soy is largely GMO animal feed suggests they are different markets. While Chinese soy growers may have less options regarding abandoning the land they can switch crops, and it doesn't appear to have happened in significant numbers. Incidentally, they have just begun to approve growing some varieties of GMO soy domestically, although apparently not for human consumption. https://asiasociety.org/australia/g...C%20government.
