Stripping at funerals now illegal
Just in case you were wondering, the police in China consider it unlawful to hire strippers to attract crowds to a loved one's funeral, thereby giving him or her more face after death. This has apparently been the local practice in Donghai (东海), a county in Jiangsu province. For details, see the following:
- Reuters report, Aug. 23
- Jiangnan Times (江南时报) report, Aug. 23 (in Chinese)
- Jinghua Times (京华时报) report, Aug. 22 (in Chinese, with pictures from a Focus (焦点访谈) report)
