China Today marks future with anniversary

China Today, a monthly magazine published by China International Publishing Group, celebrated its 60th anniversary recently in Beijing.

The magazine, initially titled China Reconstructs, was founded by Soong Ching-ling (also known as Madame Sun Yat-sen) in January 1952.

Renamed as China Today in January 1990, the magazine has grown from a single edition bimonthly to a monthly in nine foreign languages, in addition to seven electronic editions for readers in at least 150 countries and regions, editor-in-chief Gong Xixiang says.
