China uses hi tech to seek "harmony" with YOU



China's CCTV-9 (China Central TV) has a sophisticated web broadcasting facility which transmits all kinds of programming attuned to the most modern of internet technologies.

This video is based on a Beijing University 2009 Beijing Forum on the theme translated as "diversity" but built on the Chinese concept of "harmony" between nations and regions around the world.

"The harmony of civilizations for all, looking beyond the current crisis toward the harmonious future for all."


Attracting some "300 academics and scholars from some 40 nations and regions."

Including noted scholars from both the United States and the Islamic world.

The format and substance is designed to create an interaction between Chinese and other viewpoints.

To bridge conflict areas toward what are presented as common ends.

An interesting discussion useful in its own right -- and of course organized and structured to be "in harmony" with official Chinese goals.



The above video image, from the program "Dialogue," is not an "embedded video."

But if you click on it, the full video will come up on a separate page.

The CCTV website contains sophisticated utilities allowing for DIRECT export of links onto "blogger" formats.

I have placed the link exported to my blog within the above image of the video -- an image I have separately downloaded from the CCTV website.

The CCTV purpose is to encourage persons such as myself to "re-broadcast" the programming in a different format to a different audience.

That would be YOU.
