About this listen

Xi Jinping’s reforms are designed to produce a corruption-free, politically cohesive, and economically powerful one-party state with global reach: a Singapore on steroids. But there is no guarantee the reforms will be as transformative as the Chinese leader hopes.

Clear & concise briefing on China's president Xi Jinping by Dr. Economy of the US thinktank Council on Foreign Relations. A few years out of date now but interesting none the less regarding Xi's domestic & international policies. Very little about the man himself, all policy & politics.
