Foxconn has mega plans for India. The world's largest electronics maker is pouring in millions of dollars into setting up iPhone and semiconductor factories in the subcontinent as it looks to expand outside of China. It is aided by Apple's China Plus plans, in which India plans a big role, and India's own overall ambitions of being tech atmanirbhar. But should India be concerned about Foxconn's horror stories of alleged labour exploitation in China?

Biden Administration Bows to China, Plus More Royals/Downtown Rumors | 11-29-22See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In the run-up to the upcoming Union Budget, finance ministers of some states -- mostly ruled by opposition parties -- have demanded a 10 percentage point jump in their share of revenue from GST collections. From the current 50%, they want it to be increased to 60%. So what is behind this demand? And what will be its impact if implemented? India's robust GST collections clearly point towards one thing. That its economy is growing at a good pace. Global companies too are increasingly seeing India as an attractive investment destination. A series of developments in China over the last three decades, including the gradual increase in labour costs, have prompted companies to look for alternative destinations. And the recent lockdowns and protests are giving fresh impetus to China-Plus-One policy. So will India be able to reap the benefits of its demographic dividend? And, will it score over its Southeast Asian rivals? Meanwhile, foreign portfolio investors returned to Dalal Street after over two months, pumping over 31,000 crore rupees into domestic stocks till November 25th. Domestic investors have also moved past inflation and rate-hike worries, which is enabling benchmark Sensex and Nifty indices to continue to scale fresh highs. This bullish momentum has spread to the broader markets, too. But, will it sustain? Last week, billionaire Gautam Adani said that his flagship company will raise capital worth 20,000 crore rupees via FPO. FPO, or follow-on public offer, is one of the many means through which corporates finance their expansion plans, or pare debt. In today's podcast, we explain what is a FPO, and if investors should subscribe to it?

DR JAY RICHARDS & COVID, LOCKDOWNS & CHINA. PETER KURTI & CANCEL CULTURE. International experts investigating the origins of Covid-19 have all but dismissed a theory that the virus came from a laboratory in China. It would seem that the virus did not come from a lab in wuhan, that the military were not involved, that WHO is hugely influenced by China and that pigs can fly. Government leaders and public health officials have not provided credible justification for their draconian restrictions on businesses and individuals during the Covid-19 pandemic. In fact, looking at what's been happening in places such as California, New York and Washington, and throughout Australia, it appears Government actions have more to do with politics than science. The lack of transparency and the narrow focus of media on Covid-19 infections has increased public fear and allowed governments the greatest latitude in destroying thousands of small businesses and lives, and taking away individual freedoms. The headline statistics in the US and in other countries have been alarming but do we expect to see a downturn in infections soon – and not just because of the vaccine. We're joined by Dr Jay Richards, a Research Assistant Professor in the Busch School of Business at The Catholic University of America, author of many books including New York Times bestsellers. His most recent book written with Professors William Briggs, and Douglas Axe, The Price of Panic: How the Tyranny of Experts Turned a Pandemic Into a Catastrophe – is a worthwhile read. Cancel Culture is a growing, malignant disease that will remove our valued traditions and sow growing dissent. In Australia, views that are at odds with progressive or woke causes are silenced. Demands for censorship of the Politically Incorrect are coming from senior politicians and representatives of the left, academe, mainstream media and a host of organisations, many of whom are active in promoting disinformation and division. Deconstruction of history, re-education of children and the masses to accept radical theories of race and gender equality, Big Tech and State censorship and divided, unhappy communities should be rejected. In the United States, radical race-based and social justice and criminal “reforms” are being imposed, along with threats from the new administration to hunt down supporters of the previous Administration and censor “disinformation” via a new Federal Agency. Collusive and extensive censorship by Big Tech and mainstream media, and social media manipulation go unhindered. Violence and Crime are spiraling out of control in US cities that have long been governed by Democrats. Is this “only in America” and why aren't Australian politicians and community leaders engaging more actively in the Cultural “Wars” and protecting Australian traditions, free speech and individual liberties? We catch up with Peter Kurti, Director of Culture, Prosperity & Civil Society program at The Centre for Independent Studies. ASIA PACIFIC TODAY, February 10, 2021

That's what we're going to address right now. Here we go. You're listening to Craig Peter, either on terrestrial radio. Yes, indeed. WGAN or online @craigpeterson.com. I appreciate you being with me. I have had a lot of people asking questions lately and I love it. I use it to help build. Not only this radio show and some of the topics we discuss and some of the pieces of training that we do, of course, that's offline, but I try and do a little bit here to help you guys understand things a little bit better, but I also respond to those emails and all, ultimately some of them end up in the weekly newsletter with the question and then my response to it. I've even some cases recorded a little video explaining things, and you can find all of that in my newsletter, make sure you get that every week. Craig Peterson.com/subscribe. It's important that you do that, cause it's the only way you can find out about all of these things that I'm doing. believe me, I'm not one to harass you guys, as I just mentioned this last time around I've gotta be the worst marketer in the world. Cause I'm not trying to push anything down anybody's throat I never really have either. So we got to cyber problems and we know that the Russians have tried to interfere here in the US forever. We know. we have been interfering in other countries elections as well as in some of their industries looked at what happened within Iran with their, nuclear power industry. That probably was more along the lines of a, yeah. Bomb-making thing. But anyway, we've been doing this for a very long time, and we also know that China has been as well. because China has one central unified government. because that government is highly socialist, they're trying to be communist. No, one's actually reached pure communism though. A Lennon communism. Oh yeah. It's, it's crazy. They've only killed tens of millions of people. It's not a very big deal, but, China has very little incentive for people to. Create to innovate, just stick their necks out because when you do, you are beaten down. So in a socialist government, like what they have right now in China or in Venezuela or in Cuba, much of what they have also down in Brazil. How do you end up innovating? How can you innovate when people stick their heads up and they get chopped off, that seems to me anyway, to be a little bit of a disincentive for innovation. in fact, it's a pretty big disincentive for innovation. So what China has been doing is. Developing their cyber intelligence capabilities. they've been working on these very long and very hard. they're trying to come up with the ability to just steal the technology. I know people where that's happened. I know a guy. Who knows a guy who knows a guy? No, I, I know a guy, his name's Mike and he designed a system that would manage a certain part of an entire building. he had it all put together, all planned out, everything, all done. He's an electrical engineer, just absolutely phenomenal. it was stolen by the Chinese and, his product is now available for sale in the United States. . he doesn't get a dime for any of those thousands of hours he put into the design but also think about all of the hours as an electrical engineer or everything else he was doing. So that's how socialist governments have to survive. they push everybody down. So everyone's on the same level, which is basically poverty. then they have to steal innovations from other countries. So let's use it as an example right now. The whole drug situation, how expensive pharmaceuticals are in the US, and yeah, some of the margins on these pharmaceuticals are crazy-ass, right? with all of these crazy high prices, including high prices, for some pharmaceuticals that are absolutely necessary for life. I'm a beekeeper and I would have an epi-pen handy in case we have a guest over or something happens to them. It gets stung and I could use it to help them out. I do have a few things where I got the Benadryl, I got this little heat thing, I've got a suction thing, that would be really nice little epi-pen, but they are incredibly expensive. How do you deal with that? we know now that about. Where I know in Canada, in many of the European countries, they pay half as much for the same pharmaceuticals that we have in the US. Now most of these pharmaceuticals, almost all of them were invented in the US almost all of them are made in China, frankly, and shipped from China all over the world. So what are we doing? How do we deal with this stuff? It's a very good question. what has happened now is the Trump administration has said, Hey, we will not in the US pay more for pharmaceuticals than any other country in the world. Just boil it down so he's trying to squeeze it from that side. Now, if they don't have the incentive to make a drug. They're not going to make it. If the incentive is we're going to make a lot of money off of this drug, I don't see a problem with that incentive, frankly. And if they do come up with a drug that works great as it is, we've already seen the pharmaceutical companies dropping their development of all kinds of drugs, because they look at it and say, it's just not going to be profitable enough. A legitimate concern. then people say, maybe we should have the government do this and invest in this sort of stuff. my opinion on that, right? the government is terrible about picking winners, whether it's in the solar cells, batteries just go on and on you just name it. the government's been bad at it in Canada. They just, this last, over the last few weeks, but just finished the last one last week, they have ordered. Vaccinations for the Wuhan virus from four different companies. they've ordered hundreds of millions of doses. Now, remember Canada has what? 33 million people. It's a 10th of the population of the US that's a lot of doses because they're trying to cover their bases up there. hopefully one of them will work and maybe there'll be like an old for world work. So that's what you have to do. we have seen China actively attacking. Small US companies. like ultra-small 10 person companies, they are attacking to steal intellect real property. with this friend of mine, it's just him. It was a one-person company that they were attacking to steal his intellectual property. That is a very sad thing. I see this in our bigger customers when you're in a 100 to 250 employee range, you are a man age, your target, and you're still too small to be able to afford, to do security operations that need to be done. If you're in the hundred. really, if you're under 250 people, 300 is fair to people is the industry standard. If you're under 300 people, then you cannot do security operations yourself. You have to outsource it to a company like mine that has these $300,000 a year employees. That knows what they're doing and can track it and using some of the best hardware and software and everything else out there. Because you can not afford it with 300 employees. You get beyond that and okay. Yeah. Maybe you can to a degree, but then you have to build your team and everything. So it's so much better to outsource for almost every company out there. when we come in, we almost always find lately anyways, a Chinese backdoor, or more than one. So that's what they're doing. They are hacking us, the US Russia is real. Some of these European countries all have pretty high-end cyber-espionage capabilities and also hacking abilities. But there's one firm out there right now. That's arguing that because China has had to be so aggressive in order for its economy to thrive when it comes to stealing information from other countries, from other people that perhaps that has made China the world's greatest cyber power. A very big deal and a very good question to ask you is that actually the case I tend to think it is. I really do just seeing how much they permeated everything and looking at my daily FBI reports I get that are showing. Multiple, sometimes daily hacks by the Chinese, these Chinese cyber attackers are going to continue to Excel, spanned the targets to going after. yeah, it's not just the big companies anymore. In fact, the really big companies, the fortune 100, you get up into the North of a thousand employees. you should have very strong cybersecurity. Team with a chief cybersecurity information officer, et cetera, all the way on down, you should be having drills every quarter. What do we do? that includes your PR people, your attorneys, everybody. Okay. you should be doing all of that. So those companies that a thousand employees plus are pretty well protected. so the Chinese and these hackers, as I mentioned, this Russian hacker in the show who was trying to really cause some serious harm to Tesla to get them to pay a ransom. He wasn't backed, I don't think anyways by the Russian government, but the only way in for him was to turn somebody. Internally who had access to the systems? So we have to be very careful. One of the largest wealth transfers in human history happened with the Equifax hack because now information personal information is more valuable than gold. It is a very big deal. when it comes to China, your intellectual property is worth more than gold. the FBI now has placed the blame on China for that 2017 hack of Equifax. if Equifax had kept their patches up to date and it would not have been able to use that vulnerability, which was six to eight months old at the time China used it to break into Equifax, stole the personal data on 150 million. Americans and half of the 5,000 counterintelligence investigations currently being conducted in the US are related to China. some of those are through yours. Truly. Then, we have found in small businesses here in the US. Hey everybody has a great weekend. Make sure you are on my newsletter. So you get all of this and more.

We talk to Adam Tooze in New York about the possible impact of coronavirus on the global financial and political system. How does this crisis compare to the financial crisis of 2008? What are the implications for the future of the Eurozone? And what have we learned already about the shift in power from the US to China? Plus we talk to Helen Thompson in London about how it intersects with the oil price war between Saudi Arabia and Russia. The first of a series of conversations about the biggest event of our times. **Updated overnight**Talking Points: This crisis has revealed the fundamental weakness in the Eurozone. Lagarde’s initial comments re-exposed this fundamental faultline. The central question facing the ECB is ‘what is its role with regard to spreads?’ But over the course of the day, the panic in the markets seems to have led Frankfurt to reevaluate: they’ve come forward with a remarkable bond buying program steered towards buying both sovereign bonds and corporate debt.The ECB is now saying that it will lift caps if necessary. This is an effort to take the sovereign risk for the Italians out of the equation and also relieve pressure on the French and the Spanish. The fundamental weakness in the Eurozone is one of the continuities, but no one really expected it to be exposed.Italy wasn’t a causal driver of the crisis of 07/08, but it became collateral damage. It has not recovered. That failure is being exposed.There are also novel elements, for example, the explosion of corporate debt since 2008. The Eurozone banks aren’t in great shape, but it’s better than ‘07/’08. The question is whether the Eurozone has the stomach for another round of collective efforts.The inequities in the US health system are severe and will be exposed in this crisis.The current crisis is happening on a much shorter timescale than ‘07/’08.The impact on working life has been even more rapid.The spread of this disease from China is not unusual but the ability of the Chinese government to bend this curve so quickly signals the power of state capacity.Beijing’s fiscal and monetary stimulus in ‘08/09 should have been a wake up call. This was a key turning point.What happened to oil prices? OPEC Plus broke down, in particular, the relationship between Russia and Saudi Arabia. The big question is the politics: the US shale industry can’t cope with prices this low. A lot of things that have been destabilizing over the last decade are crashing into each other right now.Mentioned in this Episode: Adam talks about Crashed with David and Helen (full transcript)Lagarde’s second statementFurther Learning: More on the recently announced ECB bond buying program from the FTAdam on Europe (from January)Adam on the global shutdown Lucia’s piece for the New York Times on Italy and bond spreads

11 million Chinese people are currently locked in the Coronavirus-struck city Wuhan, along with other international citizens. Advice to American and French people within the capital is that to evacuate and they have been offered assistance to do so immediately. The UK government however have not yet offered the same advice and some British citizens feel left in the dark. Columnist Stephen King recently left China and has written about Coronavirus and other pandemics for the Evening Standard paper.How Brexit could change our diet:This week the UK will leave the European Union and a lot of change is going to come – including how we eat.

One of the key consequences of various developments in the region is the ongoing rerouting of many of Asia's supply chains, seen as only likely to continue in the current climate. This podcast, a featured session from GTR Asia 2019, will address the following: To what extent are firms restructuring their supply chains in order to avoid tariffs on Chinese products? How successful has the sourcing of alternative options proved? Have we already seen greater focus on sourcing goods from markets such as Bangladesh, Cambodia and Vietnam? How hard is it to repeat the scale of China and how can others compete? How significant are cost issues, particularly bearing in mind increasing wage structures in many markets? Are more manufacturers either looking for cheaper hubs or greater process automation? Are more adopting a ‘China Plus' strategy? Are more companies now looking at reshoring or nearshoring to reduce supply chain disruption? How expensive and time-consuming is it to shift production in an uncertain climate? What role do financiers have to play? How important is clarity and transparency over where products and goods are sourced from in the current climate? What role can technology play in the process?

I returned to Boston on June 14th after a 5-week vacation with some work in China. It was a luxury to be able to unplug for so long! I was able to slow down and reflect on life and career for both my mom and myself. I was born and raised in Beijing, China and came to the United States at the age of 17. These days, people like to ask me how often I travel back, and if I feel differently somehow. The answer is that I've never felt closer to my origin, my roots. This trip was a particularly rewarding one for me. My mom and I spent 2 weeks in Shanghai, 2 weeks in Beijing and 1 week in Tsingtao (Shangdong Province) where the famous beer factory resides. Neither one of us drinks but we did visit the famous Beer Street outside of the factory that runs about a mile long. Think busy nightlife, beer in every color and lots of seafood (some of which you probably don't recognize)... My mom Xiang Li and I were in Tsingtao for another reason. Three years ago, she sold her Dream of the Red Chamber collection to a large organization in Tsingtao. Having acted as her agent and negotiator for a while, we decided that her collection was going to be displayed in a museum inside a cultural park. It took much longer than expected for the exhibition to go live but it's finally there now. Above: picture of mom and I in front of the museum for the opening ceremony Below: a walk inside the museum My friends recently asked me about the most rewarding part of my trip. The art exhibit opening ceremony? Or something else? Perhaps I thought my first email to my readers and podcaster friends on this email list would be to share more podcasting insights. Well, here's a change for you and for me. The most rewarding part of my trip, as it turned out, was to help my mom find her way home to Beijing after spending the past 3 years on the road working as an artist. The move included packing and unpacking dozens of large packages --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/feisworld/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/feisworld/support
For many people, the mention of the Tibet Autonomous Region will evoke images of famous scenic spots like Mount Chomolungma and Lake Namtso. But Tibet, which is on the world's highest and largest plateau region, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, has a wide range of scenery, from mountains to valleys, glaciers to the Gobi Desert. But while this might well add to the region's glamour in tourists' eyes, the harsh environment undoubtedly poses severe challenges to local people's lives. China Plus's Wang Lei tells you stories about people's struggle for a better life through sand control and central heating and oxygen supply projects.
Tariffs are imposed on products originating in foreign countries and not on those nations' governments. As a result, they increase costs for importers of the products and can drive up prices for consumers. Trump issued a statement Friday saying the tariffs on Chinese goods "may or may not be removed" while trade talks continue. U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer said last week that the U.S. was preparing to expand the tariffs to cover $300 billion of Chinese products that aren't already facing import taxes, or virtually everything imported from China. Rapper Lil Wayne told his fans he would not be performing at a Miami Gardens hip-hop festival Saturday night after police tried to “check” him before going on stage. “To all my fans who came to see me at Rolling Loud, I’m sorry but I won’t be performing,” the rapper posted on Twitter. “The Festival Police (Not Rolling Loud) made it mandatory that I had to be policed and checked to get on the stadium grounds.” He added: “I do not and will not ever settle for being policed to do my job and give you guys a great show.”
Shen Yushi was born in 1978, the year when China first adopted its policy of reform and opening up. In China, we have a saying: "四十不惑" (si shi bu huo), which means "when you turn 40 you should be without doubts". From Beijing to the Silicon Valley, and then back to China's capital, does this middle-aged tech guru now have a clear picture of his life calling? Shen Yushi sat down with China Plus for an in-depth interview for our series "Deep Dive: Talks with Chinese Internationals".

Guo Bei is the vice president of EIC Group, a Chinese company that specializes in international education. During her spare time, she has delivered more than 180 lectures in about 30 cities, in an effort to help motivate more Chinese students to reach for their goals. But Guo told China Plus that she isn't a natural born public speaker, and that this took perseverance. How did she do it? Listen to her story in this episode of our series "Deep Dive: Talks with Chinese Internationals".
In what sounds like the beginning of an unlikely adventure story, Pan Qingzhong started his first trip to the Big Apple with 30 U.S. dollars in his pocket. After moving to the United States, Pan earned a Master's degree, married the woman he loves, and started a family. He also started a company that he floated on the stock exchange. Life was good. But that didn't stop him from making the decision to return to his alma mater Tsinghua University. What was it about China that drew him back? Pan shared his story with China Plus for our new series "Deep Dive: Talks with Chinese Internationals".
When Wu Changhua started her career as an English editor at China Environment News 28 years ago, she thought that environmental protection meant sweeping the streets and planting trees. Now, she has become one of Asia's leading scholars on climate change and a senior policy advisor. Through her journey in this field, Wu has witnessed China's role change on the international stage. She shared with China Plus some of her insights about the country's changing role in the world for our new series "Deep Dive: Talks with Chinese Internationals".
Crashed - Helen and David talk to historian Adam Tooze about his epic new book Crashed: How A Decade of Financial Crises Changed the World. Why did the crash of 2008 take so many people by surprise? How did it spread from the US around the world? Why was Europe so vulnerable? And how do the answers to these questions help explain Brexit, Trump and what's now going on in places from Hungary to China? Plus, as we approach the 10-year anniversary of the event that triggered the crisis, we explore what might have happened if Lehman Brothers had been saved.
