If you believe the headlines, China is benevolently forgiving its loans to 17 African countries and loaning another $10 billion through the IMF to African nations to deal with Covid. In this episode of China Uncensored, we look at why that statement is not what it appears to be, how China uses its loans to advance its strategic interests in Africa, and why China has recently pulled back on its spending there.

China’s real estate market is melting down, and there is very little the Chinese Communist Party can do about. And what makes it even worse is that the real estate market makes a large percentage of GDP. When the real estate market suffers, the rest of the economy suffers. In this just us episode of China Unscripted, we talk about why real estate in China used to be considered such a good investment, what the CCP is doing to prop up the industry, and how investors are protesting their lost investments.

In July, Changjiang Automotive, once known as “Asia’s largest” new energy vehicle factory, officially went bankrupt, exposing the story of the development of China’s new energy vehicle industry.

China has the largest number of cameras in the world. Some media claim a number of over 200 million cameras. In 2019, the British technology research website published a survey that if China continued to install surveillance cameras at the current rate, by 2020, the average Chinese would be under the surveillance of 1 camera for every two citizens. If the police enabled these surveillance devices, it shouldn’t be difficult to find the missing population. However, in China, a red country with a special syst

China’s facing a heat wave that is breaking all kinds of records, and it couldn’t come at a worse time. Chinese censors target Minions (the movie, not their underlings, although they probably get censored too if they step out of line). Xi Jinping personally asked President Joe Biden to stop US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi from traveling to Taiwan. Watch this episode of China Uncensored for that and more of this week’s China news headlines.

hina has threatened to make Taiwan part of China, and it has said it will do it by force if necessary. Many would expect China to do a sudden invasion of Taiwan, attacking its most politically important areas all at once. But what if China used salami slicing instead? For example, what would happen if China took over Taiwan’s islands? Would the world react the same as if China invaded the main island of Taiwan? In this “just us” episode, we talk about China’s invasion plans, Russia’s takeover of Crimea, and

The Chinese Communist Party hates cannabis—at least it hates it citizens consuming cannabis. Marijuana in other countries, though, is totally cool, especially if it can keep its triads employed. In this episode of China Uncensored, we look at why China bans CBD and marijuana with high amounts of THC but allows it for export, how Chinese triads are taking advantage of marijuana legalization in the US, and how it’s part of the CCP’s warfare strategy against the West.
