  • China's Foreign Policy Dilemma
    February 2013 ANALYSIS LINDA JAKOBSON China’s Foreign Policy Program Director East Asia Dilemma Tel: +61 2 8238 9070 [email protected] E xecutive summary Foreign policy will not be a top priority of China’s new leader Xi Jinping. Xi is under pressure from many sectors of society to tackle China’s formidable domestic problems. To stay in power Xi must ensure continued economic growth and social stability. Due to the new leadership’s preoccupation with domestic issues, Chinese foreign policy can be expected to be reactive. This may have serious consequences because of the potentially explosive nature of two of China’s most pressing foreign policy challenges: how to decrease tensions with Japan over the Senkaku/Diaoyu islands and with Southeast Asian states over territorial claims in the South China Sea. A lack of attention by China’s senior leaders to these sovereignty disputes is a recipe for disaster. If a maritime or aerial incident occurs, nationalist pressure will narrow the room for manoeuvre of leaders in each of the countries involved in the incident. There are numerous foreign and security policy actors within China who favour Beijing taking a more forceful stance in its foreign policy. Regional stability could be at risk if China’s new leadership merely reacts as events unfold, as has too often been the case in recent years.

  • Bio-Of-Hu-Shuli.Pdf
    BIOGRAPHY Ms Shuli Hu Shuli Hu, the managing editor of Caijing Magazine (Business and Finance Review), has been called “the most dangerous woman in China,” because of her magazine’s audacious exposé of the inner workings of China’s securities market. She was also one of 50 people to receive the “Stars of Asia” title from Business Week in 2002. Caijing Magazine is regarded the most influential financial magazine in China. South China Morning Post praised Caijing as the most respectable magazine in China. Having just celebrated its 5 th anniversary this April, Caijing has a series of influential articles to its credit, including The Inside Story of Investment Funds, Banker Lvliang, The Trap of Yin Guangxia, and Tracking the Causative Agent of SARS. The Trap of Yin Guangxia exposed fraudulent accounting practices at a widely-traded company, taking three- quarters of a billion dollars off its market value in a short period of time. Those responsible for the fraud at Yin Guangxia were arrested and its auditing firm, Zhong Tianqin, lost its license.

    WHY THE BEST ARCHITECTS WORK FOR THE WORST REGIMES•WHAT RUSSIA WANTS GLOBAL POLITICS, ECONOMICS, AND IDEAS ® MAY/JUNE 2008 ForeignPolicy.com AMERICA needs a department of NATIONAL GOALS In his final televised speech to the nation as President, Dwight Eisenhower first coined the term "military-industrial complex" and warned: "As we peer into society's future we ... must avoid the impulse to live only for today, plundering, for our own ease and convenience, the precious resources of tomorrow. We cannot mortgage the material assets of our grandchildren without risking the loss also of their political and spiritual heritage. We want democracy to survive for all generations to come, not to become the insolvent phantom of tomorrow." President Eisenhower It was just two years later that I first championed the idea of creating a DEPARTMENT OF NATIONAL GOALS. As I wrote in 1962: "Our country has made no pronouncement to fire the imagination of mankind with a vision of how great a place the world can become if all countries and all people will work together for the common good. Our intentions are good, our motives are noble, our strength is great – but we lack the big idea. The torch has not been lighted. The people of the world are waiting for us to inspire them but no inspiration has come."
