Note by the Editors: This survey is provided only for information. Readers are advised to consult the official documents themselves in their research. In international dealings, the Chinese government normally uses Chinese. The English quotations in this Survey are therefore normally translations, but they are taken from official websites or another official source, unless otherwise noted. The abbreviations used in the quotations are from those official websites.
