Multi-Culti Over-Sensitivity In China

This coming Chinese New Year marks the beginning of the Year of the Pig – but you won’t see any porkers on Chinese television, due to sensitivity to China’s small Muslim population.

Companies looking to reach China's consumer market with pig images during Year of the Pig celebrations next month will have to adjust after a national television network adopted a policy to be sensitive to the country's small Muslim population, according to published reports.

China Central Television said it would ban all verbal and visual pork references from advertisements during Lunar New Year celebrations next month, the Wall Street Journal reported. This week, the network banned a TV ad from Nestle SA featuring a smiling cartoon pig and the message, "Happy new pig year."

CCTV's ad department said the regulations are intended to avoid offending Muslims, who consider pigs unclean animals. China's 20 million Muslims comprise less than 2 percent of the population, the Journal reported.

"China is a multiethnic country," the network said in a notice. "To show respect for Islam, and upon guidance from higher levels of the government, CCTV will keep any pig images off the screen."

Let’s see – 20 million Muslims, out of a population of 1.3 billion, are sufficient to suppress the culture of the overwhelming (98%) majority. I don’t know about you, but I find crap like that to be at least as offensive as a pig is to Muslims.
