A few hours ago, the Guangdong provincial government issued an emergency notice canceling its arrangements for the upcoming May Day Golden Week, and removed all previous notices about the long holiday from all the Guangdong government's websites.
This follows last weeks clamp-down by China's Central Government against the regional revivals of the May Day Golden Week public holidays (26-Mar-2009). At the time of the clamp-down, the province of Guangdong was not thought to be included in the list of Provinces ordered back into the fold, as it was supposed to have the Central Government's blessing for a pilot project (25-Feb-2009).
