‘Silent’ Restaurant Provides Livelihood to the Deaf, Mute! (28.9.2022)

When asked why she insisted on only providing jobs to the deaf-mute for 12 years, Li said she had witnessed the difficulties they experience as a child, with six of her family members both deaf and mute, and facing limited job opportunities, etc.

I chose to open a hot pot restaurant and make it easier for the disabled to prepare and serve dishes, with gas stoves replaced with induction equivalents, which are safer for deaf employees to use, Li said.

Xinxiang City is home to more than six million residents, of which more than 40,000 are deaf and mute, and with only one school for them to attend.

Li’s parents used to study at this school, meaning the employees in the hot pot restaurant are mainly their classmates. Now deaf people who are applying for work often take the initiative to ask Li for a job.

I hope that the deaf and mute can work and live normal lives, using their strength to earn a reasonable living, Li said.

What the Russians Need to Understand About Britain! (7.7.2022)

The Russian people should remember the Soviet principle of ‘Internationalism’ as existing prior to and during WWII! Just as the working-class of China exercises ‘Internationalism’ across the globe (and particularly toward the contemporary Russians), the modern Russians must look beyond the superficial ‘Nationalism’ which is sweeping their homeland as a response to the collective condemnation of the West! We – the working-class people of Britain – DO NOT support the Tory government’s arming and financing of the Neo-Nazi ‘Maidan’ regime of Ukraine! We REJECT the continuous pro-Neo-Nazi propaganda broadcast by the bourgeois British media! The Ukrainians that have fled Donbass ARE NOT legitimate refugees (such as the Sudanese recently murdered by the Spanish and Moroccans) but are fleeing WAR CRIMINALS! Do not support these people! The working-class of Britain STANDS with the people of Russia in her righteous fight against the US-backed Neo-Nazi ‘Maidan’ regime of Ukraine! Together we can defeat the Nazi menace yet again!
