China Insider

In this week’s episode of China Insider, Miles Yu reviews the Supreme People’s Court ruling on mandatory social security payments for employees, and what this might reveal about the current state of China’s social welfare infrastructure. Next, he covers the recent collision of two Chinese naval vessels following aggressive maneuvers near the Scarborough Shoal, and how this fits into China’s evolving gray-zone operations and Indo-Pacific maritime strategy. Lastly, Miles revisits the Chinese Communist Party’s planned celebrations for the upcoming eightieth anniversary of victory in World War II, and weighs the potential impact of rising anti-Japanese sentiment against the current popular protest movements across China.

In the Hallways of Hudson

Founded in 1961

For over 60 years, Hudson Institute has been a trusted resource for decision makers and opinion leaders on both domestic and international issues. We carry on that tradition today with a focus on the key strategic issues impacting the future of American national security, defense, innovation, economic prosperity, and global order.

More about Hudson

Responsible decision makers and researchers cannot afford the luxury of denying the existence of agonizing questions. The public, whose lives and freedom are at stake, expects them to face such questions squarely and, where necessary, the expert should expect little less of the public.
