Interestingly, when I was in Taiwan (not China, I understand, but in the general area) in 2012 to visit our Taipei office, the subject of the Apollo moon landings came up during lunch. All the Taiwanese workers at the table (about 3 or 4) said that the moon landing was a hoax.

A few years later, a few people from our Taipei office, whom I did not meet during my trip, transferred to our US office. So I asked them what they thought of the moon landings. They also said the landings were a hoax.

Not a perfect sampling, but still interesting.

I wonder what the average person in China thinks of the Apollo moon landings. Or maybe it's just that many non-Americans in general think that the moon landings are a hoax.

None of my relatives who were alive in 1969 have ever heard of the US moon landings. The information was totally suppressed at the time and in the intervening decades they simply had no reason to seek it out.

The younger generations think it’s a hoax but are more uncertain because they know that any information about the event is likely to be propaganda
