Jaime FlorCruz | I arrived in China in 1971

Few foreigners arrived in the PR China as early as Jaime FlorCruz: In 1971 he was a student activist in the Philippines when the Chinese Government invited him, together with other Philippine Youth Leaders, to visit Mao’s China for three weeks. But he had barely arrived when the Marcos’ Government back in the Philippines declared a State of Emergency and made it impossible for him to return. This changed his life: Jaime FlorCruz became a student in the legendary Class of 1977 at Peking University, where he studied next to Li Keqiang 李克强, later Premier of China, and the later-infamous Bo Xilai 薄熙来. He went on to become a journalist for Time Magazine and CNN in Beijing and today serves as the Ambassador of the Philippines in China. Living History: Stories from the Opening of China is a series of documentary interviews with Chinese, Americans and others about the experiences they had in the period after the reopening of China under Deng Xiaoping in 1979. These crucial early years and the people-to-people exchanges made during this time are a period whose memory we want to preserve with this series. Many of the stories we are recording here have never before been documented.
