The spring series of The 9pm Edict comes to a belated finale with special guest Yun Jiang, the inaugural China Matters Fellow at the Australian Institute of International Affairs. And guess what? We’re discussing news from China.
In this episode we talk about the historic meeting between Australia’s foreign minister Senator Penny Wong and her Chinese counterpart Wang Yi, the lifting of China’s zero-covid policy, China’s efforts to attract and retain scientific talent, China’s ambitions in Antarctica, the plight of international students and how their experiences change their views of Australia, Chengdu rapper Xie Di, and of course cardboard dogs.
