In this week’s episode of China Insider, Miles Yu reviews new policies enacted by China’s Education Ministry aimed at reducing excess stress and pressure among primary and secondary school students. Next, Miles looks into China’s campaign of transnational repression and coercion against human rights advocates and legal experts with familial ties to members of ethnic minority groups living in China. Finally, Miles discusses the recent political purge of Politburo member and former Xinjiang chief, Ma Xingrui, as the third such purge in recent months related to China’s aerospace program.
