it is the 100th anniversary of the chinese communist party. ree that perhaps that's more a recognition of the party's devotion to raw power than it is to ideological purity? well, i think china is celebrating the centenary of the founding of the communist party of china, the biggest, largest, most important political party ever in human history, with almost 100 million party members. and the party is, indeed, invasive. it's omnipotent and omnipresent. however, i would say if any political force anywhere in the world really has some justification to be very proud of its achievements, it is the communist party of china. it has very solid track records. and i think this celebration is not only celebrating the communist party of china, but also the great transformation that china has gone through over the past a245 years in particular, or ever since 1949. this is not a celebration of the power grip. this is truly a good occasion for everyone to celebrate why we are the chinese today, and why we believe tomorrow will be better than today. you used a

can the world expect from the chinese communist party in the years ahead. the well that's always hard to say to jumping has made it clear that he wanted to unite, as he call it. i was with the mainland china. he wanted to most like the contact. i wanted to know whatsoever he was at the time when you people might internally join the people's republic. whether this will happen will depend on a lot of things. but the threat has been more and voice more in the in the past few years. mathias, how are people, you know, in hong kong and in taiwan for example, likely to view this day or, or we also have to say, you know, chinese who have fled abroad the, well, it won't go home this day is also a special day. it marks the 24th anniversary seems to hand over from britain to china. that was usually the occasion where the people would march for their liberties working again, the group of the communist party, you know, in this year, the communist party type group with a new national security law team that have come into effect one years ago. exactly . so the people of h

that's the thing we did is the communist party. the communists invented a new -- so what's happening with the south china sea is it's a trial run of what they call gray zone tab pics. what is the gray zone tactic? gray zone tab that means it's about territorial -- without using the military so basically enables the country to extend its territory without a traditional war. this is how it works when china takes bended the south china sea. the body of water in southeast asia. it's the major trade route so 90% of the trade going to china goes through that route in china in several countries including malaysia the philippines and vietnam share claims of this body of water could sometimes there are historical disputes as to what area is yours and mine. this is the area with huge oil and gas deposits. it's a huge deposit of natural resources. there is a huge economic interest and its inventors to maintain their claim are extended. what china did was under the first obama administration china had this idea to use the reef in the south chin

the unmistakable hallmarks of communist party rule were front and centre of it celebrations. tal control, the omnipotent leader, the unquestioning loyalty. overlooking tianamen square, the general spoke of how the party had saved china from a history of humiliation and of the power it now wields. translation: the chinese people will never be bullied, _ oppressed or enslaved. anyone who dares to try will have their heads cracked and bloodied against a great wall of steel forged by 1.4 billion chinese people. there are no references of course to the fact that on this spot in 1989, the party clung to power by shooting data hundreds of unarmed protesters. nor any mention of the violence and chaos of chairman mao's rule. and while the focus is on the economic success in china's big leap in living standards, critics feared xinjiang's internment camps and the crackdown on dissent in hong kong revealed once again the true nature of one—party rule. this former party insider was expelled last year for voicing concerns about the direction the party was taking. she is now in effective exi

and as the communist party celebrate, it's 100 year anniversary. the 68 year old is consolidated disposition as the country's most powerful leader in decades strong or the party has united and then let the people in opening a great path, making great achievements, forging a great spirit. she has led china for 9 years, and after a bullying presidential term limits in 2018 is unlikely to step down anytime soon. he began his term with an anti corruption campaign, which the one and a half 1000000 officials punished. it also purged the party of any opposition to his rule. she then promised to an extreme poverty nationwide a promise. he said he fulfilled last year. many said these feats have given rise to a status on par with party founder melts. don't the chinese people have advanced very well and they don't want to give that up and they won't. and the whole bill attached themselves to any leader who is able to you know, not only promised but deliver the son of revolutionary elite. she was sent to rural ne, in china during the cultural revolution where h

china's communist party is marking its 100th anniversary. g is expected to give a keynote address. the party was founded in 1921 by chinese intellectuals. exhibitions are expected to take place around the country for the rest of the year.

and therefore president, the shooting ping was saying that the communist party has proved its legitimacy as the rightful group to lead china, not only now but into the future as well. so it was a very powerful speech full of communist ideology. unsurprisingly, and i think from listening to it, i heard really 2 main messages. the 1st was to the domestic audience to the chinese people. and that was, as you alluded to, that the communist party saved china essentially saved it from being a weak backward country, vulnerable to foreign forces and transformed it into what it is now a strong country able to stand up. that was a lot of the language that president achieved and ping was using and therefore the chinese people need the communist party in order to continue to succeed. and that under president, she didn't ping, it will continue to go forward on the right path. so that was one message. the other message i think was to a foreign audience and with the latter half of the speech. and he used quite strong words and basically the message from prison achievement ping was, don't mess with us. a

so let me explain to you a little bit about the character of the communist party the communist party is a party that believes in raw power. it will do anything to obtain power and to remain in power. it's the only justification so that's why the communist party has been deeply hard to dial the democratic values from that in 1949 because they see every democrat to embrace free and open elections and rule of law, open debates and ideas. all these democratic values and the challenge to the party to take power and stay in power. that's why the communist party has never been friendly. they will never change or embrace democracy. so we need to treat them as who they really are and not who they wish they should be. not naming for the policymakers or the audience that will come to read it but i keep all of you in mind. we need to be smart because when we look at a candidate and check on their policies because of the constitution republic people present us to make the rule of law and policy decision. i think it's time that we educate ourselves. then when it's time for the election, look past

xijingping noted that the communist party is seeking to restore stability to hong kong, suggesting thatity, and stability is yet to be reached, but it is a day of celebrating the party's achievements in the last 100 years rather than looking back at its failures. in years rather than looking back at its failures.— at its failures. in terms of what today's _ at its failures. in terms of what today's events - at its failures. in terms of what today's events and l at its failures. in terms of. what today's events and the speeches told us about the direction that china will go in under the communist party, as it enters the next, the start of the next 100 years, what can we gleam about that? this of the next 100 years, what can we gleam about that?— we gleam about that? as xi jinn -|n~ we gleam about that? as xi jingping noted. _ we gleam about that? as xi jingping noted, tone - we gleam about that? as xi jingping noted, tone and i we gleam about that? as xil jingping noted, tone and will jingping noted, tone and will no longer be bullied, but at the same time, he notes that china wants to b

the chinese communist party is celebration. it's $100.00 anniversary. during the past century and in particular the last 4 decades, the policy has reshaped the chinese economy and turned it into today's asian powerhouse. so how's it done? it? well, back in 1978. china was an impoverished peasant stays, so the communist party and the dang shopping decided to bring in a rural reform to increase agricultural production, reduce poverty. later on, the chinese leadership establish special economic zones to attract foreign companies grant state owned enterprises. more freedom, china quickly became the factory of the world, facing then gave a massive boost to the construction sector, building roads, bridges, housing officers, and rail. today the economy of the world's most populous country is still growing, not even the financial crisis, nor the coven. 900 pandemic, have put a stop to it. john has been increasing its global influence. indeed, with investment in developing countries, africa has been a key battleground for that. so let's speak to jeremy game, ser

the chinese vaccine is, but we know this, we no that if the chinese -- we know if the chinese communist partyain, we know the chinese party will do what it did back at the end of 2019 when they knew they had doctors getting sick in the laboratory. they began to have their political figures, not their health officials work on covering up the virus and making sure the world couldn't attribute it to them. we now know precisely it came from wuhan and we have with high confidence evidence that it came from the laboratory. >> eric: you don't need to be columbo to figure this out. the hero doctor died. three researchers were reportedly sick and had to be hospitalized, this was in november. take a look at what was in the "wall street journal" in june about this, experts writing quote, the covid-19 pathogen has a genetic footprint that has never, never been observed in a natural coronavirus. the presence of the sequence is strong evidence of gene splicing in the absence of the public outbreak suggests gain of function acceleration. the scientific evidence points to the conclusion that the virus was de

big day for the chinese communist party, it's celebrating it's 100 anniversary. but even more interesting of the last 4 decades in which the party reshape to the chinese economy and turned it into today's asian power house. now back in 1978, china was an impoverished person, stayed a communist party under dang, shopping decided to bring in a rural reform to increase agricultural production and reduce poverty. later the chinese leadership established special economic stones to attract foreign companies and ground state owned enterprises. more freedom, china quickly became the factory all the world's basing then gave a massive boost to the construction sector, building roads, bridges, buildings and railways. today, the economy of the world's most populous countries, still growing, not even the financial crisis or the coby 19 pandemic. could put a stop to that. while for more, i'm joined by fraser, how we, he's an expert on china. and the also of the book read capitalism. he joins us from singapore. good to have you with us. now, the full title of your book says the
