Power Struggles in China and Cambodia: A Political Analysis
This episode explores the internal power dynamics within the Communist Party of China as Xi Jinping's authority wanes amidst rising dissent. We also examine the ongoing influence of former Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen, who continues to shape governance behind the scenes despite his son's leadership. Additionally, we discuss a Taiwanese scholar's critique of a political movement as a farce, and reflect on the poignant narrative of oppression from Nobel Prize writer Han Jiang. Join us for a deep dive into these critical political developments in Asia.
