For the interest of the public’s and CFA members’ health and safety amid the COVID-19 outbreak, we are ‘shaking’ our tins online!! Although there have been a lot of changes with the way we live our lives and interact with each other, the good spirit of the Good Friday Appeal stays. The value of being kind and generous to each other, helping the most vulnerable who are in need, have become more relevant in a time of crisis and great uncertainty. It is crucially important for us to continue with such a great tradition, in a creative way, to extend our supports to those most in needed in our lives.

This was the first time I present my early ideas about using ‘minjian society’ to examine and reflect on Chinese digital media research. Feedback obtained from the presentation were so invaluable that I have incoporated post-presentation thoughts into my book. Presentation abstract: This paper draws on the Chinese indigenous concept of ‘minjian (commoner, folk) society’ to critically reflect the term ‘netizen’ in China . Even though netizen is a widely term amongst commentators, few have attempted to locate the term within the intellectual origins of and the historical debates on Chinese citizenship; hence, making a simplistic connection between digital media use and citizenry-like practices in China. In this paper, I argue that the term netizen is problematic for two reasons. First, it fails to acknowledge the multiple forms of citizenry in China. Second, it fails to encapsulate the geo-diversities and spatial structures of the Chinese society. Informed by recent calls to re-engage digital media research with Chinese history and geography, I offer a conceptual discussion by citing the cultural and intellectual debates on the different forms of Chinese citizenship to re-evaluate the relationship between digital media and the formation of civic identities in China. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e7c733b55805e55e2b76ed9/1586770896610-BK2Y3AYZKQ3Z3AM1MLTN/Crossroad+Cultural+studies+conference Conference/seminar Presentation 17 December 2016 (photo by Dr Crystal Abidin) https://www.wilfredyangwang.com/annoucements daily 0.75 2022-10-27 https://www.wilfredyangwang.com/home-1 daily 0.75 2025-06-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ced8e1d5fd4c700018dd761/1559080328316-G6PK6CXBE07NEM0XAHCH/Stocksy_txp824ffa5crXt000_Large_844923.jpg Home - Improve your relationship with others Be your best self, alone and with others, and cultivate deep and lasting friendships and relationships. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ced8e1d5fd4c700018dd761/1561907800739-KPLG47SEYE493UI2O24B/Stocksy_txp824ffa5crXt000_Large_844920.jpg Home - Invest in your relationship with yourself We all have a tendency to put others first, but in doing so, we can sometimes neglect our relationship with ourselves.
