CENTER OF ASIAN AFFAIRS STRUCTURAL CHANGES IN An analysis of China’s short and medium-to-long-term AMERICAN OIL SUPPLY AND inflation DEMAND LEVELS CHINA’S O&G STRATEGY China's Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose 2.8% from a year earlier in August, the increase remained unchanged from the previous month, according to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics of China on September 10. With both fiscal and monetary policy being relatively loose, there are fears that China will face a sharp rise in inflation. China's core CPI, excluding food and energy, was just 1.5% in August, representing a modest increase that ANBOUND does not expect will put much inflationary pressure on the CPI in the near term. In the medium-to-long run however, the factors affecting China's inflation are complex. Those include the domestic economy, www.anbound.com RMB exchange rate, trade, currency, etc. Inflation is likely to rise in Page 1 of 5 25 September, 2019 CHINA OBSRVATION Issue 015 the long run, especially as imported products such simultaneously increased the openness of as pork, grain, and oil drive up prices.

With more than 618 million Internet users, China has more users online than the USA has inhabitants. The opportunities for business are diverse and almost unlimited. However, due to special regulations and laws, e-Commerce in China works different than e-Commerce in the rest of the world. Since China is one of the fastest growing economies in the world, this growth will also continue in the e-Commerce market. The speed at which the whole industry has grown, and also the manner in which it is affecting the Chinese economy has come as a surprise to many. This fast development also offers huge possibilities to foreign companies. But the most challenging question is, how to successfully enter the Chinese e-Commerce platform. This S-GE report is written with the collaboration of companies like Jura Elektroapparate AG, Swissmooh AG, Boschung China and goCommerce GmbH and gives insight on e-Commerce in China. This report also gives the insight of the tendencies, perspectives, opportunities, risks and market entry conditions of the B2C as well as the B2B e-Commerce sector in China for SMEs. Subsequently, the last part of the report provides some recommendations for SMEs willing to enter this promising market.

Frontier Politics And Sino-Soviet Relations: A Study Of Northwestern Xinjiang, 1949-1963 Abstract This is an ethnopolitical and diplomatic study of the Three Districts, or the former East Turkestan Republic, in China’s northwest frontier in the 1950s and 1960s. It describes how this Muslim borderland between Central Asia and China became today’s Yili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture under the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. The Three Districts had been in the Soviet sphere of influence since the 1930s and remained so even after the Chinese Communist takeover in October 1949. After the Sino- Soviet split in the late 1950s, Beijing transformed a fragile suzerainty into full sovereignty over this region: the transitional population in Xinjiang was demarcated, border defenses were established, and Soviet consulates were forced to withdraw. As a result, the Three Districts changed from a Soviet frontier to a Chinese one, and Xinjiang’s outward focus moved from Soviet Central Asia to China proper. The largely peaceful integration of Xinjiang into PRC China stands in stark contrast to what occurred in Outer Mongolia and Tibet.

  • Assessing Russia's Role in Cross-Taiwan Strait Relations
    “Russia and Cross Strait Relations” SHAOHUA HU Associate Professor and Chair Department of Government and Politics Wagner College [email protected] Scholars have scrutinized the role of the United States and even Japan in cross-Strait relations, but have downplayed, if not ignored, the role of Russia.1 Given the extensive studies that have been carried out on Russia’s China policy, the lack of attention given to this subject is woeful and even puzzling. Such deficiency may be attributed to Moscow’s seemingly unequivocal pro-Beijing policy, Russia’s loss of superpower status, and the lack of close ties between Russia and Taiwan. Whatever the reasons, the deficiency should be addressed, because Russia is both a global and a regional power, and because the policy differences between Russia and all other major powers demand explanation. This article attempts a systematic study of the Russian factor in cross-Strait relations. What form has Russia’s Taiwan policy taken in different eras? How important is Russia to Beijing’s Taiwan policy? What options might Russia have in the event of a cross-Strait conflict? These are the questions I seek to answer. The Evolution of Russia’s Taiwan Policy A review of Russian foreign policy helps us understand the present and anticipate the future. Russian leaders have not created their foreign policy out of the blue, but rather formulated it under given geographical and historical circumstances. No matter how changeable and complex history is, we may still be able to identify some key historical patterns. That scholars find much continuity in Russian foreign policy makes it even more important to familiarize ourselves with the past.

  • Explaining Christianity in China: Why a Foreign Religion Has Taken Root in Unfertile Ground
    ABSTRACT Explaining Christianity in China: Why a Foreign Religion has Taken Root in Unfertile Ground Xiuhua Wang, M.A. Mentor: Paul Froese. Ph.D. Chinese Christians are growing rapidly, yet their exact number remains controversial. Christian growth is somewhat surprising given that China is inhospitable to Christianity. First, the state closely regulates religious activity, making it difficult for religious groups to recruit members. Second, Chinese religious history is dominated by traditional religions venerating ancestors, only to be replaced by state-sponsored atheism; it is unclear how Christianity would find cultural inroads here. This paper seeks to establish the probable range of Christians and their growing trajectory. Additionally, I identify the regions where Christianity is most popular and test some hypotheses about why these areas are more conducive to a Western monotheism. I conclude that huge labor emigration, along with lower commitment to ancestral worship, have created a cultural space for Christianity in China. In particular, Christianity grows among a network of women who have lost their ritual ties to the past and the patriarchal hierarchies.

I attempt to reveal connections between the colonial past and socialist “present”. I also aim to reveal both the idiosyncrasies of Japanese colonialism vis-à-vis Western colonialism from the perspective of the built environment, and the similarities and connections of urban construction between the colonial and socialist regime, despite antithetically propagandist banners, to unfold the shared value of anti-capitalist pursuit of exploring new visions of and different paths to the modern.
