Recently, China’s epidemic prevention policy took a 180-degree turn. On December 7, the Communist authorities suddenly abandoned the three-year-old zeroing policy and changed it from strict closures to full openness overnight. Some local governments even said that the public should all expose themselves so that universal immunization could be achieved as soon as possible. Officials claimed that they would complete the three-year journey of western societies’ return to normal in three months. However, what’s

There has been a big movement in the investment world to screen investments based on environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria. While it’s good investors that care about the impact of their investments, what’s not good is that those same “woke” investors are funding China’s human rights abuses and environmental destruction. In this episode of China Uncensored, we look at the “responsible” investing strategy of some large investment funds, what Chinese companies those funds are invested in, and wh

Xi’s government is now going all out for economic development. But, the problem is, will this adjustment bring China’s economy back on track with high growth? We find it highly improbable.

In the field of civil engineering, people are most afraid of encountering underground caves when filling cement. Because the underground cave is very huge, no matter how much cement is filled into it, it is futile. However, compared with the sea, the underground caves are very small. But China pours tons of cement into the sea. What? Why did China do this? What are they going to build now? In fact, China threw 10,000 tons of cement into the sea to build the Pingtan Strait Road-Rail Bridge. According to data

Tensions between Japan and China have flared up ahead of the Japanese foreign minister’s visit to Beijing. China, which Tokyo considers a potential threat to the country, has stepped up its naval and air drills around Japan’s Ryukyu Islands. The drills came after Japan unveiled a 5-year plan to bolster its military capability, announcing a record $55 billion defence budget for 2023. Experts say Japanese FM Yoshimasa Hayashi’s trip should be viewed as part of Tokyo’s broad policy shift on China. Experts say

Ep36 China has Other Plans for the Tiangong Space Station! China, the second largest economy in the world, is back at it again, and this time, pushing further towards becoming number one. China, the country already aiming to be the world’s largest economy, has recently revealed its plans to become the world’s most powerful space nation.

Hong Kong has always been unique from mainland Chinese cities because of its British influence. Formerly a British colony, Hong Kong enjoyed a certain amount of democratic freedom not seen in Mainland China. This created a unique culture that the Chinese Communist Party is now trying to destroy. In this episode of China Unscripted, we talk about China’s effort to “decolonize” Hong Kong, how it conducted a similar cultural genocide in Tibet, and how the CCP has attacked press freedom in Hong Kong.

China demonstrates it’s naval power with a deployment of carrier aviation with a long range anti-ship fleet beyond the ‘Frist Island Chain’.

Despite dealing with Covid for three years, the Chinese Communist Party is unprepared for a recent new Covid wave. One study predicts that a million people could die from it. In this episode of China Uncensored, we look at the official data versus what’s being reported on the ground, how China is changing how it counts Covid deaths, and whether the easing of restrictions after protests is to blame for the recent surge.

Japan is fundamentally a maritime power, and not just because it is an archipelago. Ninety-nine percent of Japan’s international trade is conducted by ship. This poses a major challenge in terms of security of supply. Moreover, the growing belligerence of countries such as China and Japan has made Tokyo start to take its military commitment more seriously. In fact, the Japanese government has already confirmed a military spending plan of more than $300 billion dollars over the next five years. This will m
