"The moment I heard President Hu Jintao announced the start of the military parade, I burst into tears," said 49-year-old Inner Mongolian singer Tengger, who was lucky enough to be in the reviewing stand at Tian'anmen.

"It was at that moment that I fully understood the statement 'Chinese people have stood up'," he said.
