For a regime that has murdered tens of millions of its citizens over the past 80 years (yes, they were at it in the "red zones" long before 1949), censoring the internet is a minor affair.
As for silly comments about China not being run by communists, or being "state capitalist". Grow up. China is the reality of totalitarian Marxist Leninism.
Check especially the paragraph under social costs!!!
Capitalism with out the inconvience of democrary. Of course some liberals would have you believe that they are inseperable but China and Korea well prove that there's nothing like the strong hand of the state to keep the workers in line....

Up to December (2003) , China’s volume of foreign trade increased by 21 percent from 2001 to $620 billion, ranking it as the world’s fifth largest trading nation. China’s exports stood at $266.2 billion for the year to December and its imports at $212.6 billion, a 17.2 percent increase. However, the character of China’s trade is demonstrated by the fact that more than half the imports were associated with export processing—in other words, the materials or ready-made components needed for manufacturing export goods.
A study published on January 15 by a US-based think tank, Hale Advisors LLC & China Online, noted: “Fifteen years ago, intra-Asian trade inflows were simple. Capital goods and components were shipped from Japan to newly industrialising countries for processing and then re-exported to industrialised countries. The opening of China has added a new link to this chain. Capital goods are now shipped to Taiwan and Korea, which in turn send capital-intensive inputs to China and [South East] Asia for labour-intensive processing and assembly before re-export to developed markets.”
Social costs
The chief function of the Stalinist bureaucracy in Beijing has been to offer terms and conditions that have transformed China into the world’s most attractive sweatshop.Many transnationals have shifted their labour-intensive operations to China from South East Asia or Latin America, because of favorable labour costs and other financial concessions—with devastating results in many countries. Mexico, for example, is estimated to have lost 230,000 manufacturing jobs since 2001, most of them to China."
