Throughout
history china remains to be a mystery as such. The Cultural
Revolution which erupted in China was not a frontier. It was
Mao Tse Tung the late leader of China's Communist Party who
coincidently was being in a proletariat revolution rather
than anything else. It should be remembered here that China
is an Eastern Society. And throughout its history peasants
played a very significant role in such a mysterious political
entity of China. Therefore dependence on the peasantry which
is almost the majority of Chinese population here does give
the impression that such a fall of politics is a logical human
affair here. And the longevity of its history is approved
of such a claim.
There
is a massive political and economical literature dealing with
why and for what and by what and how this cultural revolution
of the proletariat of China went through? Yet nobody gave
a satisfactory answer here. For the question was left wide
open for mere speculation even the Chinese were not able to
give a satisfactory answer for whatever has erupted. But it
was above all could be noted as a power struggle engulfing
both the Communist Party of China and the whole country and
remarkably it was full of instabilities for the whole system
as such. In a direct sense it was a struggle of Chinese literature
culminating in the highest degree of literally production
among those of Communist member and close friends of Mao Tse
Tung who was a triumphant literally man of Chinese history
called Yao Wen Yuan. Yao Wen Yuan was a personality camouflaged
with Chinese historical narration but the basic writing rotated
around the question. For he claimed that throughout Chinese
history only one question remains to be doubtful very satisfactory
here and he throttled around the fact of how to gain political
power in the system.
There
were two non-entity personalities in political affairs in
China. The first was Wang who became the first chairman or
rather who became the first President of China as such the
second one was the mayor of Shanghai. There were these two
carefully selected by Mao himself personally and the other
one by the former foreign minister at that time Choun En Lai
himself. While Mao Tse Tung retained the chairmanship of China
and Choun En Lai remained to be a powerful foreign policy
personnel. Choun En Lai took care of external relations of
China while Mao remained a powerful personality in the internal
side.
Choun
En Lai was a master of world diplomacy while Choun En Lai
remained to be a mayor of diplomacy of the world and Mao Tse
Tung had to manage the internal wrangling affairs of both
the Communist Party in China internally and the military bloc
for this matter he moved very carefully by appointing somebody
who is not known at all in China or the outside world called
Lin Piao to be the head of China's military in totality. But
yet China still remained to be a continent by its own and
Mao who was very careful and intelligent in moving around
at ease here for China was basically and still meant to be
a peasant enclave and the coining of the name cultural revolution
as a label did further its aims tremendously and he led China
directly into a combination of two factors. The first one
was the peasant of China. The second one was dependence of
the Chinese Communist Party. From the last population of China
were basically students at university and several academic
institutions. And all these two elements of Chinese political
society helped Mao Tse Tung and Choun En Lai very much. China
was in turmoil for revolution with the talk of everybody.
Whether party or no party, all together at the same time Choun
En Lai and Mao moved carefully in Chinese population by closing
all of China and separating it from all foreigners in the
world. Their plans seem to be workable to a large extent at
the same time or rather meanwhile the party as such moved
into three direction.
Firstly
the military secondly the workers and thirdly is the peasant
and the parties directed by Mao Tse Tung himself personally
but then there was another one who herself who had became
known as the Choun En of China means one who was the president
of China and the mayor of Shanghai and other places what he
wants and now the frustration was Mao Tse Tung that time.
While who escort Chiang Ching she was previously an actress
of movies. And attractive at that time when Mao married her.
She became a worthy person. Then political friction started
to surface among these personalities. At the same time there
were serious defections here for Lin Piao tried to escape
to the Soviet Union at that time but he was killed in the
process. Now the question of why the culture revolution erupted
became clearer here. For Lin Piao could easily escape to Pakistan
or India which were closer to China than Moscow itself. He
chose Moscow for understandable reasons here. At the same
time China was drifting towards a major up heaven that is
noticeable to outside world.
For
at one particular moment in Chinese history Beijing the capital
of China witnessed the emergence of eleven million students
from all over China to come to the capital. Between 1957 and
1958 the Chinese government was bankrupt. The state as such
was completely bankrupt it had no revenues whatsoever. The
reason was due for the facts that the Soviet Union had demanded
from China to pay all the loan financially granted China since
1949 it was independent. The amount went into billions of
dollars the Chinese Government under Mao Tse Tung paid all
its financial loans and for all the way till the last that
was required of it financially but the state was literally
bankrupt. The decision came in the party from Mao Tse Tung
himself and China paid every single dollar back to Soviet
Union. But within a short period, particular the Sino-Soviet
conflict came to the service but it was a very hard decision
to take. Mao Tse Tung personally he thought China must rebuild
itself independent on itself with no need of help from anybody
else. And this created among other things a trouble of power
within the Communist Party of China itself. It should be remembered
that manpower production internally is very high in China
and moreover the resources are abundant beyond any further
thinking for the issue here.
China
accomplished under the leadership of Mao Tse Tung embarked
upon a very difficult and painful road to rebuild itself as
a major state in the world. And that cost it a lot of financial
requirement. As such also they remembered that China was a
center of bloc called at that time as the Third World. For
China what was important strategically in the globe at the
same time it was very rich. China's attention was paid to
the Third World. China emphasis was heavy on the African continent.
For all African continent in the world was its Seabed here.
The second priority was given to the States all the all the
moment in Latin America and within this realm competition
with the Soviet Union was very hard. But China did its best.
It offered the assistance in many few aid but it should be
remembered here that China it's built advanced technologically.
But China and its long history as a Communist Party kept a
very appreciable eye to the United States of America and they
were appreciated very much with Mao Tse Tung himself. And
in one direction this power struggle within the Communist
Party of China Mao was at this time the supreme in power in
foreign relation around the world. But then the question remains
at that time whether China or the Communist Party was able
to fulfill this task of rebuilding China instead on a very
serious and recognizable route of a human development at large
or not? Mao Tse Tung searched in the affirmative for a single
reason depending on the Masses is the power that must not
be neglected.
Over
a choice like this by Mao Tse Tung did exactly what Chinese
did in the very tender content at the same time of China at
that time was very logical. But the same time Mao Tse Tung
had to move to find himself obliged to move personally within
the Communist Party power struggle because he had come to
an age whereby he should depart from the light. And everybody
thought especially in the west that his wife Chiang Ching
would be the successor but the day after Mao died, Chiang
Ching was imprisoned. So were the days before as such they
were in prison and when the new generation took a new mean
for China in a peaceful way and peaceful means.
