    > In a tightening grip on civil society, Chinese authorities have implemented a policy that requires teachers and other public-sector employees to surrender their passports.

    > Teachers have become central to the party's push to enforce ideological conformity, and authorities are increasingly concerned about the influence foreign travel could have on them.

    > According to government notices, teachers who refuse to hand over their passports or travel abroad without official permission face disciplinary action.

  2. They are panicking because their economy is falling apart in a catastrophic way and they are worried about capital flight/brain drain. They will soon move to shut thr country off from the outside world entirely.

    Communism is just another form of gangsterism, The PRC and North Korea are the best evidence for that. Toxic to humans, pets, and wildlife.

    I think we in the West are closer to this that we care to admit. Redditors support this sort of thing in the name of pandemic control or preventing “misinformation” for example.

    Tale as old as time

    China was always approaching this cross road for decades where its continued prosperity would come at the cost of its culturally engrained authoritarianism

    To choose to prosper or to demand absolute authority- you can not have both and China decided the latter

    Any nation that has to control foregin influence has a weak culture. In china’s case it’s the culture of the CCP that ruins the rest of its beautiful culture.

    Wow that’s bad. That’s basically what private companies and super-rich families do to immigrant slave laborers in India and most Middle-Eastern states.

    Sure am glad that I refused 3 teaching job offers in China and will very soon be on a flight to work in another nation. Taiwan will always be my first choice though, but there are relatively few positions available there, probably because Western teachers want to stay there..

    The Chinese equivalent of Project 2025’s plan to eliminate the Department of Education.
