If you search for "1989" on Baidu Baike, China's version of Wikipedia, you will only find two entries: "1. 1989 is the number between 1988 and 1990" and "2. 1989 is the name of a computer virus".
All other events from 1989 have been scrubbed from the record, including of course the most famous event of all in recent Chinese history: the moment when People's Liberation Army soldiers opened fire on civilians in Beijing after months of student protests in Tiananmen Square.
Even 25 years after the events of June 4, the Communist party is continuing, indeed intensifying, its long-running campaign to force the Chinese public to forget what happened. Source...
