Quite the turn of events in Hong Kong! Now Jimmy Lai is admitting the very thing he was arrested for...collusion with a foreign government. Jimmy Lai admitted in court that he asked the US government to sanction Beijing and Hong Kong leaders by freezing their overseas financial

Pls. Own your mistakes. Libra is a flawed design in the first place. This is a cheap shot.

Who’s wasting money on high-speed rail? A reader of the Wall Street Journal could be excused for thinking the answer is China. See their recent article subtitled: “China’s train system is one of the biggest public works in history, and it’s becoming a giant money pit.” It

I was in the city for a week in 2019. Disgusted. Glad to see they eventually got what they deserved.

If you aren't working with people you care about and respect, your job probably isn't the one for you. I will be there for anyone who really needs me; when a whole community operates this way, it is very powerful and rewarding. Personal contact at times of personal difficulty is

What a beautiful story. I will definitely keep using RedNote and I'm starting to save up for a family trip to China.

A few words about what happened on court.

Many of my posts recently have been supportive of China's economic transformation. Here's why. China has lifted more people out of poverty than the rest of the world put together in the past 50 years. China has higher life expectancy than the USA despite its income per capita

The narrative about China's "debt-trap diplomacy" in Africa is complete bullshit. A study that looked at more than 1,000 loans to Africa found that Chinese lenders never seized assets, never used courts to enforce payments, and never applied penalty interest rates.

I was just informed that the Federal Economic Statistics Advisory Committee (FESAC), of which I was a member, was terminated abruptly and all upcoming meetings are also canceled. This was a committee that has been around since at least 2000. We were a group of experts from

Boston doesn’t listen to kings.

“Chinese peasants”are enjoying the world’s largest high speed rail network, the world’s most advanced EV cars, they live in one of the safest countries in the world with little crime, they have more affordable and better healthcare, cheaper groceries and some of the most advanced

That's actually a big deal, this means that any tourist visiting China can buy everything tax-free (which I believe gives you a 13% rebate on most goods), all over China. I probably shouldn't suggest this but it's actually a pretty insane arbitrage opportunity: you can go to

I'm normally not a big fan, but this is an absolutely brilliant answer by Larry Summers to the oft-repeated argument that China is somehow "cheating" in trade. In fact it's probably the best answer I've ever heard on this. It goes back to the point I was making
