A touching post today from the Chinese version of the now ubiquitous Talent Show....
In the clip Weijun, 18, plays a traditional Chinese instrument called the Erhu alongside percussion instruments. This is indeed no easy task.....
There are no English subtitles in the clip but you can tell by the judges' reactions that it goes down a storm.
In another part of the show (not available online it seems) Weijun also showed his incredible memory skills by naming the days of the week on which a wide range of dates have fallen.
So is this evidence that attitiudes to disability in China are changing? It is hard to say. This is, however, a very inclusive clip.
There is no doubt that having an Autistic finalist on what is a massively popular show in the country will have a positive impact in terms of Autism awareness.
