Our man in Nanchang celebrates

Kilcullen-born Gary Byrne celebrates the Chinese New Year at a special lunch in the University of Nanchang, China, where he teaches English.



The event was a special lunch for any staff and students remaining in the university over the holiday season.

Gary tells us that last week he was able to access the Diary for the first time in two months. Chinese censors regularly block out parts of the Internet as part of their efforts to stop dissident conversation.
