China's changing economy
How China's economic, political and environmental policies will shape the world's second biggest economy in the years ahead.
China is bucking a global trend and its economy is growing again. We hear from Wuhan and Shanghai, where restrictions have been lifted and companies are back in business. Also in the programme, we hear from the young generation leaving Hong Kong and those embracing change brought by a new security law. And, we ask how ready China is for the challenges of 2021. The world鈥檚 second biggest economy is spending huge amounts on green technologies and clean power. Experts give their views. We also talk to the writer Bill Hayton about how he thinks President Xi wants China to be viewed on the world stage.
Presenter Fergus Nicoll is joined by Yuan Yang, deputy Beijing bureau chief at the Financial Times and independent economist Andy Xie in Shanghai.
