Facebook chief executive and founder Mark Zuckerberg met with China’s propaganda chief Liu Yunshan at the weekend, The Associated Press reported, citing state media. According to state news service Xinhua, Liu told Zuckerberg he hoped Facebook could share its experience with Chinese firms to help “Internet development better benefit the people of all countries”. The meeting is the latest in a string of thus far fruitless efforts by Zuckerberg to get access to China’s hundreds of millions of Internet users, and comes on the heels of the Facebook founder’s recent, highly publicized jog through Tiananmen Square while air pollution in Beijing stood at 15 times recommended levels.
