For many farmers, the immediate concern is the land beneath their feet. Landslides are striking different hillsides as the rising water places more pressure on the shoreline, local officials say. In Fengjie County, officials have designated more than 800 disaster-prone areas. Since 2004, landslides have forced the relocation of more than 13,000 people in the county.

Salt Works Close
Hundreds of thousands of workers are report unemployed as a result of the recent closing of the Chengkou saltworks, on the Shensi border of northeast Szechuen, which, closing, many believe, was deliberately engineered by the Kaihsien salt Producers, who were desirous of cornering that market.
The trouble is aggravated by the Government's order that only salt produced in Kaihsien is to be sold in Chengkou. Decidedly angry at the state of affairs, the residents of Chengkou have declared that rather than buy Kaihsien salt, they would go without any salt.

Xiangshui

From the Hanyu Pinyin romanization of the Mandarin 响水 (Xiǎngshuǐ).

"Firmly adhering to Chairman Mao's principle 'take grain as the key link and insure and all-round development,' the broad masses of poor and lower-middle peasants, commune members, and revolutionary cadres of Hsiangshui [8207 3055] County, Kiangsu Province, have relied on their own efforts to wage hard struggles, transformed an akaline beach into farmland, and raised their agricultural output.[…]
"Hsiangshui County is situated along the coast of the Yellow Sea in northern Kiangsu, a lowland usually subjected to drought and water-logging.

[1970 April 2 [1970 March 24], “NEW KIANGSU COUNTY INCREASES AGRICULTURAL OUTPUT”, in Daily Report: Communist China, volume I, number 64, Foreign Broadcast Information Service, sourced from Peking NCNA Domestic Service, translation of original in Chinese, →OCLC, page C 8:

[1971, Summary of World Broadcasts: The Far East, British Broadcasting Corporation, →OCLC, page A-4:

In many rural areas of China women cadres have virtually disappeared. For example in Xiangshui County in Jiangsu Province, the number of women serving as secretaries/ deputy secretaries or heads/deputy heads of basic level collective organizations fell from 93 in late 1979 to 12 in 1990 (Zhang Yaofang 1993).

Concerns about the chemical industry are widespread in Jiangsu, which is China’s leading producer of agricultural chemicals. A blast at a chemical plant killed seven people in Xiangshui County in 2007. Four years later, late-night rumors that flammable gas was leaking from a plant sent thousands of people fleeing, and four people were killed in a traffic accident.

Central Plain

ASIATIC civilization is the product of “Mesopotamias”, of great alluvial plains where the natural fertility of the soil stimulated man’s agricultural vocation. Such was the case of Babylon in western Asia; such is the case of the “Central Plain” of China in eastern Asia.[...]In the same way that Egypt, according to Herodotus, is a “gift of the Nile”, the Central Plain is a gift of the Yellow River and its tributaries.

1952, René Grousset, “Chinese Earth”, in The Rise and Splendour of the Chinese Empire, University of California Press, published 1970, →ISBN, →OCLC, page 9:

Within the larger sphere of eastern Asia the Chinese people as we know it today is better defined by language and culture than in anthropological terms. In general a distinction of the physical type may be observed north and south of the Yangtze river, a boundary which corresponded in early times to a cultural division between the relatively advanced civilisation of the Central Plain and the more primitive south.

1961, William Watson, “Introduction”, in China Before the Han Dynasty (Ancient Peoples and Places), New York: Frederick A. Praeger, →LCCN, →OCLC, →OL, page 11:

The meeting point of the plateau and the plains is just east of the first great bend of the Yellow River. Significantly, it is at the central meeting point that we have the coalescence of the three cultures which produced the developed Shang culture. This area, known to the Chinese as Chung Yuan, or central plain, has always been the heartland of the “Middle Kingdom.”

1964, Sherman E. Lee, “Urban Civilization and the Indus Valley; Neolithic and Pre-Shang China”, in A History of Far Eastern Art, New York: Harry N. Abrams, Inc., Publishers, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 23, columns 1, 2:

The bronzes from a tomb of the Western Zhou at Yiqi, Tunxi, also have some of their own peculiar designs, such as a gui with a weaving pattern commonly seen on bamboo-woven articles of south China, but rarely encountered in the Central Plain.

1980, Li Xueqin, 中国青铜器的奥秘 [The Wonder of Chinese Bronzes], Beijing: Foreign Languages Press, →OCLC, page 77:

"In fact, the settlers of today's northwest China attempted to explore every way they could. When their eastbound march was thwarted by the early Central Plain dwellers, they simply found their way to the sparsely populated southern territory [because it was] easier and less hostile."

2012 December 9, “Grain finds in Yunnan province may shed light on a Bronze Age civilisation”, in South China Morning Post, →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 2012-12-12, Archaeology:

“Wow, 1200 B.C. people are doing stuff like that and we think we’re so technically evolved,” she said. “It’s kind of humbling, actually.”
Although there is evidence of bronze works at that time in China’s Central Plain, some 750 miles (1,200 kilometers) away, none come close to being this elaborate.

2014 October 17, John Rogers, “Rare ancient Chinese bronzes go on display in US”, in AP News, archived from the original on 2022-06-14:

"It is possible that when barley was introduced from western Eurasia into the Central Plain of China, it came with the knowledge that the grain was a good ingredient for beer brewing," Wang told Live Science. "So it was not only the introduction of a new crop, but also the knowledge associated with the crop."

Grand Canal

The Grand Canal, in Chinese Yun-ho, or ‘the Transit river,’ is of much more importance to the inland trade than either of the two great rivers of China.

1832 June, Le Ming-che Tsing-lae, “Ta Tsing Wan-neen Yih-tung King-wei Yu-too,—"A general geographical map, with degrees of latitude and longitude, of the Empire of the Ta-tsing Dynasty—may it last for ever."”, in The Chinese Repository, volume I, number 2, Canton, →OCLC, pages 38–39:

Now the group of forty graduates were put to work as a partial solution to the shortage,¹³ and he went ahead with the establishment of a surveying bureau at Ch’ing-chiang-p’u, where the Grand Canal crosses the former course of the Yellow River.

1965, Samuel C. Chu, Reformer in Modern China, Chang Chien, 1853-1926, Columbia University Press, →LCCN, →OCLC, →OL, page 150:

Couriers rode on donkeys or mules and usually covered part of the distance—between Yangchow and Chinkiang, and when the wind was favorable also between Yangchow and Ch’ing-chiang-p’u—by boat on the Grand Canal.

1970, Ying-wan Cheng, Postal Communication in China and its Modernization, 1860-1896, Cambridge, Massachusetts: Harvard University Press, →ISBN, →LCCN, →OCLC, →OL, page 65:

The Grand Canal was completed in 608 A.D. during the reign of Sui Emperor Yangdi to connect the fertile rice paddies south of the Yangtze with the capital 1,800 km (1,100 miles) to the north.

2007 August 9, “China worries about how to protect Grand Canal”, in Reuters, archived from the original on 2024-05-25:

A Jiangsu chemical plant has been fined 20 million yuan (US$2.88 million) for dumping almost 2,700 tonnes of liquid acid waste into the Grand Canal, causing environmental damage “beyond measure”, according to a local court verdict that was published recently.

2017 January 4, Sidney Leng, “Dumping of untreated acid in Chinese canal highlights nation’s water pollution woes”, in South China Morning Post, →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 2017-01-04, China:

In Lianjiang, for example, teams of women apparently used collective funds to organize "large-scale play companies" and buy "ancient-style opera costumes. They have even taken young people to study acting. Some teams, in order to maintain play companies, have even asked counter-revolutionaries to direct them. Others have hired play companies from distant places and have continually put on performances."

1982, William G. Rosenberg, Marilyn B. Young, Transforming Russia and China, Oxford University Press, →ISBN, page 293:

When a fishing boat of Huangqi township of Fujian's Lianjiang county, which was engaged in nongovernmental trade, was having a transaction with a Matzu trader near the waters of Matzu island on the afternoon of 23 April, the troops garrisoned in Matzu opened fire at them, killing one and injuring two.

As a young girl, Mei actually had dreams of someday joining the People’s Liberation Army in China. After beginning school, though, she was impressed with her instructors there and decided to aim her sights instead on becoming a teacher.
She attended Lianjiang Shangde High School, which she said is one of the best schools in the area to prepare students for college.
“It was very competitive,” she added.

Tingyuan (alternative)

As a result of Lin Piao and the "gang of four's" reckless, unbridled sabotage of the party's various policies for the rural areas, their trampling on the production team's right to stand on its own feet, and their arbitrary orders and unscrupulous commandism, agricultural production and commune members' livelihoods were greatly jeopardized. Deeply victimized Tingyuan County is an example.
The "gang of four's" representative in Anhwei, disregarding the country's practical situation and the production teams' right to stand on its own feet, forced the county to expand paddy rice production. As a result, the county reaped almost nothing on more than 200,000 mou of rice paddies each year; grain output did not increase for many years; output of cotton , oil-bearing crops, tobacco and other crops dropped by a great margin; and commune members' incomes decreased and their lives became more difficult.
During the struggle to penetratingly expose and criticize the "gang of four," the Tingyuan County party committee has dared to destroy and construct, conscientiously implemented the party's various policies for the rural areas, highly respected the production team's right to stand on its own feet, and freely mobilized the masses to grow what's appropriate to local conditions; it has thus quickly reversed its passive situation, overcome the difficulties caused by "man-made calamities" and natural disasters, achieved an overall bumper harvest og grain, cotton and oil-bearing crops, and put an end to the situation of constantly poor agricultural production. Tingyuan County's struggle fully indicates that respecting the production team's right to stand on its own feet is of great importance and significance in speeding up agricultural production.

Today’s Guangming Daily also reports that in Anyang, Henan Province, the father of a student brought a gang to school to beat up a class teacher because their son was neither assessed as being a student of merit nor elected captain of his school’s Young Pioneers detachment. Reports like this, which have also appeared in the past, are shocking and have caused me to reflect deeply.

Manasarovar

Borrowed from Hindi मानसरोवर (mānasrovar), from Sanskrit मानस (mānasa, “of the mind, the lake said to have been born from the mind of Brahma”) + Sanskrit सरोवर (sarovara, “lake”).

der

Manasarovar, the lake born from the mind of Brahma, is among the most ancient and holy of Hindu pilgrimage sites. Hindu legend tells of twelve Rishis, wise 'Seers’ of pre-Vedic times who retreated to the remote region for meditation and prayer. They stayed many years performing penances and austerities, and were awarded a vision of Shiva and Parvati, the divine Lord and Lady of Kailas. But still they lacked, in this dry land, a suitable place to perform the daily ablutions required of devout Hindus. The Rishis prayed to Brahma so that they might fulfil their duties. From the infinite depths of his all-encompassing mind Brahma created Manasarovar, the Lake of the Mind, as a mirror of his greatness. At the moment of its creation, it is said, the Rishis worshipped a golden linga, the generative symbol of Shiva, rising from the midst of the new-born waters.

1989, Russell Johnson, Kerry Moran, The Sacred Mountain of Tibet: On Pilgrimage to Kailas, Park Street Press, →ISBN, →LCCN, →OCLC, →OL, page 42:

The crossing on Monday of Nathu La, a high-altitude pass between Sikkim in India and Chinese-ruled Tibet, signaled the official opening of a new pilgrimage route for Indians to the holy sites of Mount Kailash and Lake Manasarovar, considered sacred by Hindus and Buddhists. China and India recently announced an agreement to allow pilgrims through Nathu La after India had lobbied for the opening for years.

2015 June 23, Edward Wong, “China Opens New Land Route to Tibet for Indian Pilgrims”, in The New York Times, →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 2023-09-03, Sinosphere:

Westerners that have visited Tibet regard it as a paradise. It is most known for Mount Everest and Mount Kailash, the Manasarovar, Namtso and Yamdrok lakes, as well as the simple and warmhearted Tibetan people, and the traditional white khata scarf.

The village chosen for my investigation is called Kaihsienkung, locally pronounced kejiug’on. It is situated on the south-east bank of Lake Tai, in the lower course of the Yangtze River and about eighty miles west of Shanghai.

[1939, Hsiao-tung (費孝通) Fei, 江村經濟 [Peasant Life in China], London: George Routledge and Sons, →OCLC, →OL, pages 9–10:

At the time of Fei’s study, Kaihsienkung had two headmen. The elder of the two did not deal with the higher government, having allowed a younger man to fill the official post.

[1958, Elman R. Service, Profiles in Ethnology, Harper & Row, published 1963, →LCCN, →OCLC, →OL, page 451:

Fei Xiaotong (Fei Hsiao-tung) (1939 : 22) reported that people over 60 constituted 6.3 percent of the village of Kaixiangong (K'ai-hsien-kung) in 1936, and those over 70 were 1.4 percent, exactly the proportions I found in my survey of Ploughshare.

1981, Other Ways of Growing Old, Stanford, Cali.: Stanford University Press, →ISBN, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 195:

In reporting here on his recent visits to the village of Kaixiangong, Fei Xiaotong presents the views of one of China's most noted social anthropologists on recent changes in the Chinese countryside as reflected in the village he first studied in 1936. Through a projected series of visits to Kaixiangong over the next several years, Fei hopes eventually to provide an update to his classic book, Peasant Life in China, first published in 1939.¹⁴ Kaixiangong has recently been designated a "field research station," and new Chinese graduate students in sociology will have an opportunity to conduct field research in that village and its surrounding region.

For example, when Fei Xiaotong studied the rural community of Kaixiangong (Kaihsienkung) half a century ago, he found these three calendars already in use.

[1872 July 27, “Abstract of Peking Gazettes”, in North-China Herald and Supreme Court & Consular Gazette, volume IX, number 273, Shanghai, →OCLC, page 69, column 1:

The most notable example of engraved dragons is on the stone columns of the Temple to Confucius at his birthplace in Chüfu. These are also found in the "cloud pillars" (single stone columns—huapiao in Chinese) outside the Tienanmen, while those at the Ming Tombs are still finer.

[1961, Yutang Lin, “Studies in Form: Temples, Pagodas and the Plastic Arts”, in Imperial Peking: Seven Centuries of China, New York: Crown Publishers, →OCLC, page 125:

As the birth and burial place of Confucius, the sage and spiritual father of Chinese culture, Qufu (pronounced CHOO-foo) has survived the ages as a shrine.

1997 October 10, Seth Faison, “Qufu Journal; Not Equal to Confucius, but Friends to His Memory”, in The New York Times, →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 2015-05-27, World:

QUFU, CHINA -- Zhong Yong, a wealthy metals trader from the far west of China, recently took a long weekend off work, boarded a four-hour flight across the country and then drove for two hours. His mission: to dress up in a long black robe with crimson trim and tap his head on the ground in front of a wooden statue of Confucius.[…]
Ning and Zhong belong to the first batch of 50 students enrolled in the Three Wisdoms Business School, an intensive program in Chinese culture started last year by professors in Beijing. In Qufu, they were tutored by Duan Yanping, a technician at the local electricity company and one of the town's most zealous Confucians. He instructed them on how to bow properly, explained ancient rites and presided over worship at the Confucius Temple.

Fangshan

GEDONG, China -- There was no sign, but Gedong's teenagers knew the way. Down a dusty alley just off Jicui Park and a few minutes' walk from local schools, the curtained door beckoned. Inside, in a dingy back room off the kitchen, a clutch of adolescent boys crowded around six computers and stared at the images flickering on their screens.
For the equivalent of 35 cents an hour, the youths were playing computer games in an underground Internet cafe, one of a half-dozen information-age speak-easies in this little farming and coal-mining town in Shanxi province 220 miles southwest of Beijing. For those unable to afford their own computers -- the vast majority here -- going online in a clandestine dive has become the only option; the local Communist Party leader banned Internet cafes nine months ago as a bad influence on minors.
"If they dare to reopen, we might launch another campaign to shut them all down again," proclaimed Zhang Guobiao, party secretary for the surrounding Fangshan County.

one of the three traditional regions of Tibet

Rgyal-sras is said to have explained to him in a prophetic manner what he was destined to achieve and how he should proceed to Amdo, for the purpose of founding monasteries and temples there, and also for diffusing Buddhism in China.

1889, Sarat Chandra Dás, “Life of Sum-pa Khan-po, also styled Yeśos-Dpal-hbyor, the author of the Reḥumig (Chronological Table)”, in Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal, volume LVIII, number II, Calcutta, →OCLC, page 38:

For centuries the area of ethnic Tibet was divided into the following: Dbus and Gtsang (comprising central Tibet), Mnga’-ris, Khams, and A-mdo.[…]A-mdo, the northeastern part of ethnic Tibet, passed under Manchu control in 1724 following the suppression of a Mongol revolt against the throne. This area was officially incorporated into the Chinese provincial system as Ch’ing-hai Province in 1928.

[1972, T. V. W., “TIBET”, in Encyclopedia Britannica, volume 21, →ISBN, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 1108, column 2:

When the new reincarnation of the Dalai Lama was discovered in 1938 in Amdo Province a new reincarnation of the Panchen Lama was found in that same year and in the same province.

1979 March 8, “Tibetan Discontent Grows”, in Congressional Record, volume 25, number 4, Washington, D.C.: Government Publishing Office, page 4329:

The inmates of this vast prison were mostly Chinese. We heard that there used to be 300 Tibetans, all from the Amdo region of Tibet, who were imprisoned for taking up arms against the Chinese around 1956-57. Of the 300 Tibetan prisoners only two were alive in the prison when we arrived.

1981, Tenzin Chodrak, “Seventeen Years in A Chinese Prison”, in SPEARhead, number 11, →ISSN, →OCLC, page 11:

The Nhasangs themselves are from Ngaba, which is in the Amdo region of northeastern Tibetan, a cultural borderland where Tibetan and Sichuan traditions meet. China has decreed that Ngaba is within Sichuan Province.

2022 November 8, Pete Wells, “Restaurant Review: Why Does This Tibetan Kitchen Also Cook Sichuan Food?”, in The New York Times, →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 2022-11-08, Food:

"This particular playful tradition is apparently very common in the Amdo region in Tibet where the Dalai Lama is from."

2023 April 25, Murali Krishnan, “The Dalai Lama's 'kiss' controversy”, in Deutsche Welle, archived from the original on 2023-04-25, Politics:

One of the three traditional regions of Tibet, covering a land area largely divided between nearly all of Qinghai, and smaller parts of Gansu and Sichuan, China.

One account of a religious movement organized around spirit-possession and magical practices with millenarian overtones comes from official Chinese sources. A report was distributed among Party officials in 1982 documenting the suppression of the "Heroes of Ling" (gling gi dpa' brtul) movement in Amdo county, a nomadic area 300 km. north of Lhasa.
