BEIJING - China shut 1,600 internet cafes between February and August, the government said.

Fines worth more than $12 million US were imposed on those establishments that allowed children to play violent or adult-only games and for other violations.

The culture ministry said of 1.8 million internet bars inspected, 18,000 were ordered to stop operating.

The ministry said porn, gambling and violence have adversely affected the healthy development of the internet in China.

The crackdown comes amid a nationwide push to limit violence and pornography on the internet that has seen the government shut down hundreds of websites deemed unsavoury.

The Internet Society of China recently released a blacklist of 112 internet protocol (IP) addresses of spam servers.

The group urged all those on the list to deal with their junk mail before Oct. 29.
