Kosher Chinese In China
The Chinese government went kosher for the first time ever, to accomodate Israeli President Moseh Katsav during his visit to Beijing that included the opening of the Israeli Embassy in China. Not only did they prepare kosher state dinners, but, “in a first for the Grand Hotel in China, Chabad of Beijing saw to it that President Katzav would have traditional Shabbat services with a minyan–both for Friday night and Shabbat morning services, and a proper Shabbat dinner with candle-lighting and Kiddush.”
