BEIJING - Next Tuesday, June 4, marks 30 years since China bloodily suppressed pro-democracy demonstrations in and around central Beijing’s Tiananmen Square, when Chinese troops opened fire on their own people.Here are some landmark dates following the 1989 demonstrations:
1994: China devalues the yuan by 33 percent overnight as part of reforms to embrace a “socialist market economy”. 1998: U.S. President Bill Clinton visits China. Zhu Rongji takes over as premier, reforming lumbering state-owned enterprises and laying off millions, cracking down on smuggling and revamping the health care system.
2003: Hu replaces Jiang as state president in March. SARS breaks out in spring. China’s first manned space flight blasts off from Gobi desert in October.
