1. “Worries Grow In Hong Kong As China Pushes Its Official Version Of History In Schools”

2. China is pressuring Hong Kong to scrap its curriculum and to change how history is taught in Hong Kong's secondary schools. Teachers, parents and legislators are worried about the changes because many question whether this revised story is giving students a complete picture of the nation’s history. The new proposed curriculum for city schools is missing key parts of modern Chinese history, like the Tiananmen Square massacre of 1989, when Chinese troops killed hundreds of unarmed pro-democracy demonstrators in Beijing. "These are crucial parts of history being taken out," says secondary school history teacher Cheung Siu-Chung. "Teachers are asking what the rationale is behind this, and our own deputy secretary of education said these parts of history are trivial and aren't even worth mentioning. She literally said that.” The new proposed history curriculum for Hong Kong would go into effect in two years. It would require Hong Kong schools to spend more time teaching students about China's modern history — from the Communist revolution in 1949 through its transformation to an authoritarian, capitalist powerhouse today.
