The People’s Republic of China marked the 60th anniversary since its founding on Thursday.
A fireworks display capped off the spectacle that featured a huge display of military might and a commitment to socialism and modernization by China’s president, who appeared in a parade.
China’s display on this national holiday was precisely choreographed — a projection of the power that China has, and the global power that it has become.
Melissa Chan of Worldfocus partner Al Jazeera English was in Beijing on this extraordinary day.
