China minors to attend summer programming course

Students will be attending a summer computer programming course in Changzhou, Jiangsu province in 2019. The report released on Wednesday showed that the number of underage internet users in China hit 191 million in 2021, leading to an internet penetration rate of 96.8 percent among Chinese minors.

The report, jointly issued by the Chinese Communist Youth League Central Committee and the China Internet Network Information Center, found that the gap between urban and rural areas was basically bridged in 2021.

According to the report, the proportion of cyber security incidents involving minors in China has decreased compared with 2020, as well as the fact that video platforms have become an important source of information for minors.

The report covers students from primary, junior high, senior high, and secondary vocational schools in 31 provincial-level regions.
