Making a fresh start[2] (simplified Chinese: 另起炉灶; traditional Chinese: 另起爐灶), or building a brand new stove,[3] refers to abandoning the diplomatic relations, traditions and customs of the Republic of China,[4] not recognizing the diplomatic relations established by the Kuomintang government with other countries,[5] treating all diplomatic envoys in the ROC as ordinary expatriates, and not recognizing their diplomatic status.[6] Put forward by Mao Zedong,[7] the principle means a total break with the "Old China".[8]

Making a fresh start was one of the three principles of the People's Republic of China in its early years[9] (the other two were to lean to one side and to clean the house before entertaining guests).[10]
