FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BEIJING AND HONOLULU, SEPTEMBER 20, 2024 The Zhou Enlai Peace Institute in Honolulu has completed the first phase of a comprehensive online database of information about Premier Zhou Enlai, working closely with the University of Hawaii.

Many of the articles first appeared in an online forum presented by Nankai University, faculty of Zhou Enlai Studies, Professor Xu Xing managing.
