It is not in the government controlled newspapers, but on February 25, a China Southern jet hit an NDB antenna during an approach to Wuhan, China. The plane was below MDA, in hard IMC, and tracking to the beacon perfectly. It flew between two masts and narrowly escaped clipping off a wing.
The crew got a GPWS alert, felt an impact, flew a missed approach, and diverted. Later inspection discovered damage due to impact with terrain / something affixed to the ground.
Whoop there it is. It was almost the hull loss this thread predicted. Sadly, one cannot say it is exclusively a Chinese problem. A good round of debate has shown this could have happened in a number of places with similar ways of doing aviation business.
