Podcast

Play episode:

With the end of the year fast approaching and time running out to get everything into the last remaining shows of the season, we’re bringing you a special double episode this week.

First, join us for an in-depth discussion with Andy Mok, a senior research fellow at the Center for China and Globalization in Beijing for a Chinese perspective on the recent FOCAC conference plus his insights on how African countries should best manage the increasingly acrimonious great power rivalry between the U.S. and China.

Then, we’ll delve into the recent stories related to the supposed Chinese seizure of Uganda’s international airport, UK allegations of Chinese debt traps, and the Pentagon’s assertion the PLA wants to build an Atlantic base in Africa and why all of these stories have been so poorly reported by so many international news organizations.
