As part of its crack down on illegal online activities, the Education Ministry's
website will allow the public to report on schools with pornographic materials.
The ministry is also drafting a guideline for campus web services, according to
state media Xinhua. Vice-minister of education Li Weihong called on college
professors to become Internet experts in order to monitor their students'
online activities as well.
In April, the Ministry of Public Security (MPS) along with nine other
governmental departments launched a six-month campaign to end the distribution
of pornographic materials and organization of cyber strip shows, among other
illegal online practices.
According to MPS, as of mid-May, the Chinese police had cracked 244 cases and
detained 270 suspects involved in online pornography. Approximately 1000,000
college students have also made online pledges to say no to pornographic
websites.
