Life in China

Life In China is a weekly English radio program produced by China Radio International that features articles about ordinary people in China. The show is hosted by Shan Shan. The program airs on Round the Clock and is available on the podcasts through the World Radio Network on the Friday edition in the United States, Saturday edition in Beijing. The format of the program is similar to NPR's Morning Edition and All Things Considered in that they analyze the news and events of today and put them into perspective with ordinary people.

The program takes the perspective of the ordinary Chinese citizen and make a story out of the ordinary day-to-day routine. For example, there was a report done on internet addiction by high school students and what happened when a town decided to enforce a curfew that basically shut down internet cafes in that town after 10pm. The result was that those addicted high schoolers started studying again and improved their grades.
