Are You An Overseas Foreigner Interested In Chinese Politics? This CPC Questionnaire Is For You

The political orgy known as the National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) is forthcoming, and while we have no idea when it’ll actually arrive on its great white horse, the relevant organs have begun taking steps to ensure that the resulting lather is a nice white sheen that masks all the ticks and warts. As but a small part of the plan, apparently they’re interested in soliciting opinions from foreigners in the form of a survey in which “3000 winners” will be “selected out of the overseas participants.” Three thousand?! They will receive “exquisite prizes.” Like, an e-card from Blue Mountain?

All you have to do is fill out the following questionnaire and include your email address, which is how they’ll notify you if you win. This document appears to be in a draft stage (we can only hope), but I’ve preserved all the formatting except for a few indents on checkboxes that failed to copy over. (The CPC is too good for Survey Monkey, apparently.) Also, the source is redacted, but everything else remains the same. This is not satire. Welcome your participation!

      I would not mind to fill up this form and contribute in some way to the development of the country where I lived for the past few years…I have positive and of course negative opinions about China and I would really appreciate to give my point of view as far as it can be considered part of a “mind trust” to change (in better of course!) the country….but China taught me that nothing is as it seems to be and this kind of “please, be free to share your democratic opinion about our leadership” thing reminds me too much what happened between May 1956 and June 1957 (百花齐放百家争鸣), when people were asked to “freely” share their opinions on the leadership in order to improve the democratic development among the party….the consequences were not democratic at all…
