Claim: At the annual congress meetings in March 2023, Wang Ping, a Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference delegate, opposed rural children studying at university because nobody would be farming otherwise.
Fact-check: Misleading: Idea of discouraging rural children from attending university was raised 12 years ago | annie lab
Verdict: misleading. she talked about how rural children may be discouraged from studying at university in 2011. annie lab could not find any record of her mentioning farming. she is not currently a cppcc delegate, and her old remarks have nothing to do with this year's npc meeting.
Organisation: annie lab
