Realtime China was launched in the summer of 2001. At that time it only aired on a small handful of radio stations in the US. Since that time many developments have taken place. As of February 1, 2003 Realtime China was picked up by the World Radio Network and is being broadcast to North and South America, Europe, Africa/Middle East and Asia.
The style is that of a 30min news magazine taking a look at Chinese politics, society, economics and culture. We have also done special programs looking in-depth at issues that matter such as China's fight against HIV/AIDS, environment, and many more.

New buildings go up seemingly overnight, consumers find their selection of goods expanding every time they shop, college graduates are staggered by their career choices. Life in China is changing for the better, but with the changes also come new problems and issues. What is happening in China today, and how are people dealing with their difficulties? Life in China tops our home page every Friday Beijing time at "Inside Today" with a clear perspective on this country and its people.
