The Long March - In 1934, Mao Zedong led the Chinese Communist Party on a massive military retreat to evade the pursuit of the Kuomintang army. The communists escaped in circling retreat to the north of the country, which ultimately covered some 8,000 km over 370 days. 71 years later, a particular Chairman Yao embarks on his 150-day tour of China and chonrincles his adventures in the Chink Chink Diaries.

The Day I Sang the Song

义勇军进行曲
---------------------------
起来!不愿做奴隶的人们!
把我们的血肉,
筑成我们新的长城!
中华民族到了最危险的时候,
每个人被迫着发出最後的吼声!
起来!起来!起来!
我们万众一心,
冒着敌人的炮火
前进,
冒着敌人的炮火
前进!
前进!
前进!进!!
