He also appreciated TPV’s effort in promoting the harmonious development and exchanges across the strait. The delegates visited the showroom where Vice President Xi tried out the latest technologies in LED, 3D TV, connected TV, AIO PC and other LCD TVs.

He was happy with the overall working environment. Mr Sutanto Djuhar, one of the founding members of TPV, joined Vice President Xi and Dr Hsuan to celebrate their friendly reunion over the years.

  • Comparative Connections a Quarterly E-Journal on East Asian Bilateral Relations
    Comparative Connections A Quarterly E-Journal on East Asian Bilateral Relations China-Taiwan Relations: Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement Signed David G. Brown Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies After six months of arduous negotiations, China and Taiwan signed an Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA), including an “early harvest” list of tariff reductions. The agreement, which provides a basis for further integration of the two economies, is a milestone in institutionalizing cross-Strait relations. On Taiwan, opposition politicians continue to criticize the ECFA but months of discussion and debate have led to a gradual increase in public support and acceptance. The issue of US arms sales to Taiwan continues to complicate US-China relations. The Democratic Progressive Party’s consideration of a new 10-year platform has revealed an ongoing internal difference over cross-Strait policy. The coming quarter will see the Legislative Yuan’s review of the ECFA, Taiwan’s quest for free trade agreements with trade partners and jockeying in the run-up to the November municipal elections on Taiwan. Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement The ECFA negotiations and the political debate within Taiwan about ECFA have dominated cross-Strait relations this year. Informal negotiations have been underway almost continuously but largely away from public scrutiny, which has fed opposition suspicions. A third formal negotiation was to have been held in May but was postponed. Instead, Beijing’s chief negotiator, Ministry of Commerce Director Tang Wei made an unpublicized visit to Taipei. In late May, Taiwan’s chief negotiator, Board of Foreign Trade Director General Huang Chih-peng, told the press that if an adequate “early harvest” list was not possible there would be no agreement.

  • Hu's Groundwork for the 17Th Party Congress
    Li, China Leadership Monitor, No.13 New Provincial Chiefs: Hu’s Groundwork for the 17th Party Congress Cheng Li Understanding the kinds of leaders Hu Jintao currently promotes also reveals the political and socioeconomic objectives he will most likely pursue in the future. Throughout 2004, especially after Hu consolidated his power at the Fourth Plenum of the 16th Central Committee in September, China’s provincial leadership underwent a major reshuffling. Most of the newly appointed provincial chiefs (party secretaries and governors) advanced their political careers primarily through the Chinese Communist Youth League (CCYL), received postgraduate education (usually in economics and management), and were leaders in less developed inland provinces. Their recent promotions are attributable not only to their political ties with Hu, but also to the fact that they share Hu’s populist vision for China’s development. Some of these provincial chiefs will be Hu’s nominees for Politburo seats at the next party congress. They will likely become part of Hu’s team to carry out political reform and socioeconomic policies in line with Hu’s perceived mandate. Deciphering Hu’s Leadership Ever since becoming general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) at the 16th Party Congress, Hu Jintao has demonstrated his political wisdom and skill by making major policy moves while deliberately confusing potential critics both at home and abroad.1 Examples abound: • While he presents himself as a populist leader who represents the interests of the Chinese people, Hu’s main political agenda is to consolidate what the Chinese call inner-party democracy, which is “democracy” enjoyed only by party elites and not the general public.

  • Freedom of Expression
    1 II. Human Rights FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION International Standards on Freedom of Expression The Chinese government and Communist Party continued to re- strict expression in contravention of international human rights standards, including Article 19 of the International Convenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) and Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.1 According to the ICCPR—which China signed 2 but has not ratified 3—and as reiterated in 2011 by the Special Rapporteur on the Promotion and Protection of the Right to Freedom of Opinion and Expression, countries may impose certain restrictions or limitations on freedom of expression, if such restrictions are provided by law and are necessary for the purpose of respecting the ‘‘rights or reputations of others’’ or protecting na- tional security, public order, public health, or morals.4 An October 2009 UN Human Rights Council resolution declared restrictions on the ‘‘discussion of government policies and political debate,’’ ‘‘peace- ful demonstrations or political activities, including for peace or de- mocracy,’’ and ‘‘expression of opinion and dissent’’ are inconsistent with Article 19(3) of the ICCPR.5 The UN Human Rights Com- mittee specified in a 2011 General Comment that restrictions on freedom of expression specified in Article 19(3) should be inter- preted narrowly and that the restrictions ‘‘may not put in jeopardy the right itself.’’ 6 Reinforcing Party Control Over the Media INSTITUTIONAL RESTRUCTURING OF PARTY AND GOVERNMENT AGENCIES In March 2018, the Chinese

Its goals are to help expand the knowledge and understanding of contemporary China in Britain, Europe and worldwide, to help build a more informed dialogue between China and the UK and Europe, and to contribute to government and business strategies. 1 Summary 1. The year 2007 witnessed the convening of the 17 th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). General Secretary Hu Jintao further consolidated his power by bringing his trusted officials into the Political Bureau and having his “Scientific Development” concept enshrined in the Party Constitution. 2. Nevertheless, the Party Congress was not a landslide victory for Hu, who reportedly made a compromise with the Shanghai Clique and the Princelings Group by making Xi Jinping the frontrunner to succeed him in five year’s time. 3. Li Keqiang, two years younger than Xi and favored by Hu, joined the Standing Political Bureau Committee. He is to become vice premier in March 2008 and expected to succeed Wen Jiabao as premier five years later. 4. Besides Xi and Li, several new Political Bureau members in their 50s, including Li Yuanchao, Wang Yang, Bo Xilai and Wang Qishan, have the potential to stay in the core leadership for another ten years and may even stand a chance to become General Secretary or Premier.

  • China's Midterm Jockeying: Gearing up for 2012 (Part 1: Provincial Chiefs)
    China’s Midterm Jockeying: Gearing Up for 2012 (Part 1: Provincial Chiefs) Cheng Li China is set to experience a major leadership turnover at the 18th National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party in 2012. Current top leaders, including President Hu Jintao, Premier Wen Jiabao, and Chairman of the National People’s Congress Wu Bangguo, are all expected to retire. The Politburo and its Standing Committee will be repopulated with a large number of new faces. Who are the most promising candidates for these supreme leadership bodies? What are the main characteristics and principal criteria for the advancement of these newcomers? Can one intelligently forecast the possible leadership lineup and factional distribution of power? To what extent will this new generation of leaders change the way Chinese politics operates? This essay aims to shed light on these questions and others by studying the 62 provincial chiefs—Party secretaries and governors—of China’s 31 province-level administrative entities. There is little doubt that today’s provincial chiefs will be among tomorrow’s national decision-makers. One can reasonably expect that a subset of these leaders will rule the world’s most populous country for most of this decade and beyond.* In China, as in the United States, 2012 will be a momentous year for politicians. Since 1977, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has regularly held a National Party Congress every five years. The Party congress has always been a grand occasion for change in China’s top leadership. The 18th National Congress of the CCP, which is scheduled to convene in the fall of 2012, will be no exception.
