  • CNBC：New US spending in Asia won't match China but it's significant in other ways
    CNBC reports: "Washington's new $113 million in infrastructure spending for the Asia Pacific region can't compete with Beijing's massive investments there, but the move reinforces the U.S. commitment to Asian governments. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Monday announced new ventures focused on technology, energy and infrastructure as part of President Donald Trump's Indo-Pacific strategy... A desire to counter China's rising economic and political influence in Asia, as reflected by the country's continent-spanning Belt and Road infrastructure program, is believed to be a major factor driving Washington's entire Indo-Pacific policy. And many now view the U.S. fund as an alternative to the Belt and Road Initiative."
  • CNN：Rare two-day protest over China vaccine scandal reveals public anger
    CNN reports: "A group of angry Chinese parents and activists have gathered twice in two days outside government buildings in Beijing to protest a recent scandal over defective vaccines, a rare display of public dissatisfaction in the tightly-policed Chinese capital. The government announced in mid-July they would take disciplinary action over more than 600,000 diphtheria and tetanus (DPT) vaccines, an unknown number of which may have been administrated to children, sparking massive public anger. Holding signs saying "Vaccine?" and calling for legislation to ensure tighter drug safety standards, more than two dozen protestors gathered outside the offices of the National Health Commission on Monday and the National State Drug Administration on Tuesday."
  • USA Today：During all the Russia hacking hype, China is rising in influence
    USA Today reports: "We've spent a lot of time talking about Russian spying in the United States... But maybe we need to pay a bit more attention to the spying — and related meddling — being done by the People's Republic of China. Because China is a bigger threat in general, and seems to be doing a lot without engendering much of a response, or even much awareness. In fact, it may be that the Chinese government is quite happy to see us focus on Russians, as a distraction from what it's doing. I would be, if I were them. It wasn't the Russians, after all, but the Chinese who were fingered for a massive 2015 hack on Office of Personnel Management records that was so damaging some dubbed it  a Cyber Pearl Harbor."
