Energy saving wardrobe

President Hu spoke at a symposium on the 100th birth anniversary of Yang Shangkun, Chinese president from 1988 - 1993.


Xinhua yesteday published a photograph of President Hu Jintao wearing a white shirt without a tie or a jacket.

The government has been urging men to dispense with ties and jackets at work in order to save energy used for air conditioning.

The fact that attention has been focused on men's attire is probably a sign of how few women work in air conditioned offices.
