I evaluated China's Red Flag Linux back in the day, around 2010.
They took a common linux distro, added Chinese fonts, and made a nice graphical login screen. I was impressed at how smooth the final result was actually.
If you're familiar with the final linux distros based on KDE (pre-Gnome 3), that's what it looked like.
So if you're a government IT staffer, study the history of Red Flag Linux.

Then there's WPS which now tends to ask me to login and whatnot a bit too much but i remember being delighted with it because back in the day it looked pretty and handled the garbage MS office stuff really well whereas libre and open office faltered here and there enough to be annoying.
