The Chairman Mao Speech was during the Korean War when he said: “No matter how long this war lasts, we will never yield”. It’s been a while since The Great Helmsman was being wheeled out to take on the yanks!
My thoughts exactly. Regardless of what esteem he may or may not be held in in China, it is my impression that they usually know that Mao isn't exactly a figure that inspires (most) foreign audiences. Any ideas as to why they'd dust him off now?
