China to ban karaoke songs with ‘illegal content’ that endangers national unity
China’s nearly 50,000 venues will be encouraged to provide ‘healthy’ songs rather than those threatening territorial integrity or religious policies
China will establish a blacklist of karaoke songs to ban those containing “illegal content” from karaoke venues across the country starting from 1 October, according to the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.
The ministry said banned content would include that which endangers national unity, sovereignty or territorial integrity, violates state religious policies by propagating cults or superstitions, or which encourages illegal activities such as gambling and drugs.
