How China’s soft power is rewriting Asian culture (www.japantimes.co.jp)

Soft power is increasingly central to China’s global dominance, no longer limited to economic prowess or military ambitions. This subtle yet key asset is reshaping Asian culture through the likes of food, film and online content.

China's cultural exports are changing its image abroad, wielding a double-edged sword. On the one hand, they have the potential to foster unity and commonality across the vast Asian continent. On the other, they threaten regional uniqueness and act as a vehicle for Chinese Communist Party (CCP) propaganda.

Tibetan culture that's being 'erased' is weird sex shit, sorry you want child sex slaves back, you're not getting them.

Secondly, and again, no, religion is not banned in China. There are more mosques in any tier one city than there are in NYC or LA. This is easily verifiable information.
