High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Qapqal News is the world's only newspaper in the Xibe language, a Tungusic language spoken in northwest China. It is one of roughly fifty minority-language newspapers in the Xinjiang autonomous region of the People's Republic of China. The predecessor of the Qapqal News, the Sulfan Jilgan ("Voice of Freedom"), was founded in July 1946 in Yining. In 1954, it changed its name to Ice Banjin ("New Life News"). The paper moved its offices to its present location in the Qapqal Xibe Autonomous County in 1956. It was forced to stop publication in June 1966, during the Cultural Revolution, but was revived under its present name in October 1974, and has been in continuous operation since then. From about 300 copies in the 1970s when it was revived, the circulation of the Qapqal News had grown to about 1,300 as of 2007[update]. It now comes out twice a week. Of the subscribers, about 500 are government organisations, twenty are enthusiasts of the closely-related Manchu language in places as varied as Shenyang, Beijing, Hubei, Guizhou, Sichuan, and a dozen other provinces, and the remainder are local Xibe people, mostly those in rural areas.
