It's mandatory in China every Monday

They made us stand in the yard to listen to the anthem every Monday but I don't remember ever doing a pledge, but it might be different depending on city I guess.

No, you're right. I conflated singing the national anthem with doing the pledge of allegiance. Although, it seems the purpose is similar.

We sang March of the Volunteers (the Chinese national anthem) on Mondays, there was never a pledge of allegiance.
