Mao Death Sparks Worldwide Mourning and Swift Pledges

Mao’s passing prompted mourners at his Beijing funeral and memorials, with Asahi noting deep emotion among attendees. China announced a week of services culminating in a Tiananmen rally as 60 million people would stand in silence for three minutes. Hsinhua reported military vows to stay in combat readiness and to wipe out intruders, and Chiang Kai-shek urged mainlanders to rise against the Maoist regime, promising air, sea, and behind-enemy-lines support for anti-Communist actions. Messages from frontier units spoke of liberating Taiwan and reunifying the motherland, while scenes from Yenan recalled Mao’s long arc from encirclement to base, and the quake-hit Tangshan and Tachai areas were referenced amid global mourning.
