    With the recent deaths of Bejing Mayor Lin Huja and Henan governor Liu Jie there are now only 6 living members of the original Communist Party Central Committee.

     

    *Li Rui (1917): Mao Zedong's secretary, has been in hospital since the beginning of April with multiple organ failure. Profiled by BBC before as an important dissident.

    *Jiao Ruoyu (1915): Former Mayor of Bejing and still serves as a Communist Congressman.

    *Yuan Baohua (1916): President of Renmin University and defined "The Legend of the Century" by Chinese media.

    *Wan Haifeng (1920): General of PLA and Deputy. Considered a hero of war, took part to WW2, Chinese civil war and Korean war, as the commander of Chinese troops aligned with North Korea.

    *Li Lian (1920): Minor name.

    *Su Yiran (1918): Another secondary name.

     

    Plus, though he was not in the original Committee, State Councillor and Politburo member Song Ping (1917) is still alive. Song Ping is responsible for expelling from the party all members who supported Tienanmen protests in 1989. A real dick.
