Getting past China's internet firewall at the World Internet Conference

Delegates at the World Internet Conference in Zhejiang province have been given special passes to help them circumvent the country's firewall.

The country has been criticised for its strict internet regulations, blocking major sites and censoring posts.

China's President Xi Jinping says countries should respect one another's "cyber sovereignty" and different internet governance models.

Beijing correspondent John Sudworth, who is at the conference, demonstrates how delegates are able to access usually restricted social media sites.
