Yangge Dancing in Shenyang

Best wishes for the Year of the Pig from Danwei TV!

This video is a rare glimpse of a folk dance performance by a deaf and hearing impaired troupe from Shenyang.

The dance is called 'Yang Ge' and is traditionally performed to bring in the New Year and features characters from Chinese legends like Sun Wukong (the Monkey King) and Xuan Zang.

Communism helped China a lot through the dark ages...it was the Chinese communists that established our militant and science/space program.

Actually, they already got rid from Communism since 1978.
