Hello and thank you for visiting The Greater China Journal.

I started this website over a decade ago to write in-depth articles about the culture and history of the Chinese -speaking world, as well as to report on news stories that do not get much coverage on mainstream media networks.

If you enjoy the articles on this website, please consider supporting me. It takes a lot of time and effort to do research, and I could not do it without the support of some really awesome readers. I have striven to keep this website paywall-free and I hope some of you can help me to continue to do so.
