China shut down more than 60,000 pornographic websites this year<\/strong>, netting almost 5,000 suspects in the process, a government spokesman said on Thursday, vowing no let-up in its campaign against material deemed obscene.<\/p>\n

Beijing has run a highly publicized drive against what officials said was smutty and lewd content overwhelming the country’s Internet and cell phones, threatening the emotional health of children.<\/p>\n

Critics accuse the Chinese government of deepening the crackdown<\/strong>, launched last December, and tightening overall censorship, and say that the push has netted many sites with politically sensitive or even simply user-generated content.<\/p>\n

But Wang Chen, head of the State Council Information Office, or cabinet spokesman’s office, said the offensive was vital.<\/p>\n

“Our campaign has been a great success and this has not been achieved easily,” he told a news conference. “We have made the Internet environment much cleaner than before as there was a lot of pornography available.<\/p>\n

“We have changed this situation and this has been well received by many sectors across society,” Wang said. “But our campaign has not come to a stop. This will be a long battle.”<\/p>\n
