    How can China’s $1.4 trillion debt package ease local debt risk?

    Is Beijing doomed to lose against Washington's propaganda?

    The United States is gearing up its propaganda against China. The US government and media are hyping the idea that Beijing is enhancing espionage and hacking operations in the West. The US also plans to set up a 1.6-billion-dollar fund to counter what it calls China's "malignant" influence worldwide, particularly in the Belt and Road countries. Will these schemes generate the desired effects? Is China destined to lose this propaganda campaign? Host Tu Yun joins Professor Joseph Siracusa, Dean of Global Futures with Curtin University, Harvey Dzodin, a Senior Fellow at the Center for China and Globalization, and Qu Qiang, a Fellow of the Belt and Road Research Center, Minzu University of China to take a close look at the issue on this episode of Chat Lounge.

    A battle DJI must fight

    It’s a battle that DJI must fight. The world’s largest drone maker has taken the U.S. Defense Department to court. It says the Pentagon labeling it as a Chinese military company and thus a national security threat to the U.S. is stigmatization and has caused financial losses to the company. Is Washington’s move another ploy to take over foreign advanced technologies or tech companies for itself? How big are DJI’s chances at winning? What chain effects will it cause if DJI loses the case? And what implications does DJI’s experience have for other companies? Host Tu Yun joins Andy Mok, a Senior Research Fellow at the Center for China and Globalization, Dr. Edward Lehman, the Founder and Managing Director of China-based law firm Lehman, Lee & Xu, Dr. Li Lun, an Assistant Professor of Economics, School of Economics, Peking University, and Dr. Ryan Mitchell, an Associate Professor of Law, the Chinese University of Hong Kong for a close look at the issue on this episode of Chat Lounge.

    How are EU tariffs on China-made EVs hurting European auto market?

    The European Commission has voted to impose tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles. China’s Commerce Ministry has strongly opposed the EU action, noting that the industry did not request the anti-subsidy probe into Chinese EVs. Some EU member states and their auto industries also strongly oppose the tariffs. Is this proposal driven by genuine economic competition or by political considerations? How will the tariffs affect competition in the European EV market and change Chinese EV makers’ global strategies? Host Xu Yawen joins Prof. Li Lun, Assistant Professor of Economics at Peking University, Helga Zepp-LaRouche, Founder of The Schiller Institute, a Germany-based think tank, and Prof. Warwick Powell, Senior Fellow at the Taihe Institute and Adjunct Professor at Queensland University of Technology, for a closer look at the issue on this episode of Chat Lounge.
