The Unstoppable Rise of China – Nelson Wong, Alexander Mercouris & Glenn Diesen
Listen especially to the last ten minutes of Nelson Wong’s (Chinese expert) explanation re the pressure on Chinese banks, but the entire dialogue is important. It is a Chinese viewpoint rarely heard in the West, and Nelson Wang’s English is excellent. The entire conflict has nothing to do with democracy vs/ autocracy nor is it… Continue reading
