On the 4 July 1989, troops loyal to the Chinese Communist Party fired at democracy protesters in Tiananmen Square. While the true human death toll is still known, the chance of democratisation in China perished. The nation and its ruling party were forever changed that day and the events that took place dictate how the country is run today. Reporter Benjamin Polazzon spoke to Dr. Sow Keat Tok on how the massacre has had such a profound impact on the country. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
