As part of the build up to the Beijing 2008 Olympics, the authorities in China have decided to document the spread of Southern Chinese Martial Arts around the world. Why just the Southern Arts, I don't know. Probably less of them!

It will be a 30 episode documentary which will be broadcast on Chinese Television. If popular, it may be shown on satellite outside China - Discovery Channel no doubt!

The researchers have found out there are 129 different types of martial arts that originated in Southern China and will feature 29 of the most popular ones in the 30 episodes. Arts like Wing Chun, Hung Gar, Choy Li Fut etc.

So, anyone had a visit from a film crew from China regarding this?
