China - sends warning after Trump's comments on One China policy: ARIRANG NEWS

중국, 트럼프에 경고 "하나의 중국 흥정대상 아냐"
Tensions flare after China criticized President-elect Donald Trump over his comments... that he could consider abandoning the One China Policy... if Beijing doesn't get on board with Washington's trade and foreign policies.

For details let's turn to Kim Jung-soo The Chinese media has criticized President-elect Donald Trump, after the future president questioned whether the United States should continue to follow its "One China policy."
Trump made the remarks during an interview Sunday with Fox News.

In an editorial the next day, the state-run media outlet The Global Times described Trump as being “like a child in his ignorance of foreign policy" and emphasized that "the One China policy is not something that can be negotiated."

The policy has been the backbone of the U.S. relationship with China since 1972 and refers to the view that there is only one state called "China."

Accordingly, a country that seeks diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of China cannot simultaneously maintain its relations with Taiwan.

As a result, the U.S. cut official relations with Taiwan in 1979, and has since acknowledged China's position, which regards Taiwan as a kind of breakaway province.

The relationship came under threat on December 2nd, however, when Trump took a phone call from Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen, upending four decades of diplomatic protocol.

The White House quickly issued a statement on the same day, saying that there is no change to the One China policy.

However, that may not be the case in the near future.

During the interview on Sunday, Trump criticized China for not cooperating with the U.S. in terms of trade and currency policy, as well as matters involving the South China Sea and North Korea. 

Trump went on to say that he couldn't understand why the U.S. should be "bound by a One China policy" when China is not listening to America's proposals.

Trump also used the interview to clarify what happened with the phone conversation on December 2nd.
He emphasized that Taiwan had called him and said he thought it would have been disrespectful to ignore the call.

S. Korea-China - relations on downhill following THAAD deployment decision: ARIRANG NEWS

ARIRANG NEWS

Published on 7 Mar 2017

한중 밀월관계, 사드 배치로 양국 외교관계 중대한 기로에 서다

Twists and turns in current South Korea-China relations, all seemingly leading to 'worse' by the day.
To get a deeper understanding of their bilateral relations and the ongoing THAAD row, we have our foreign affairs ministry correspondent Connie Kim in the studio.

Connie how significant is the current heightened tensions between the two countries?

South Korea and China's relations reached their peak when President Park Geun-hye attended a war victory ceremony in China in 2015. 

But this came to a downhill after Seoul and Washington decided to deploy the U.S.-missile defense system THAAD to the Korean peninsula after North Korea's fourth nuclear test in January of last year.

China has been objecting the deployment of such system under the reasoning that the THAAD powerful radar could interfere with Chinese regional interest and national security.

Soon after the South Korean conglomerate Lotte Group approved a land swap with Seoul's defense ministry last week, enabling the base where the THAAD battery will be stationed,… China's unofficial retaliatory measures started rattling South Korea first on Lotte group, then to the travel industry and now seemingly to other industries as well. 

While there have been various reports that China has made the orders verbally, Beijing for now is officially denying that the government is involved. 

I was able to get a hold of a professor at the China Institute of International Studies where he echoed the government's stance and said such responses are a quick response from the Chinese public. "This is really hard to say there is strong sentiment against ROK. This is actually a response to the deployment of the THAAD in the ROK.// I think the Chinese people are very clever to understand the significance or meaning of the statement by the government. Generally speaking I don't think the Chinese government gave any announcement to take sanction against the ROK but the people voluntarily gave the response to the decision made by the ROK government."

While Seoul stands firm on its stance to deploy THAAD, Beijing keeps voicing a strong opposition regarding the deployment adn the South Korean government.

What are the prospects for the future bilateral relations?

China has escalated its level of warning to South Korea on Monday as Seoul and Washington began installing parts of THAAD. 

Beijing's foreign minstry said that it solemnly objects Seoul and Washington's THAAD deployment and will resolutely take necessary actions in order to safeguard its security interests.... and added any consequences to follow the necessary actions should be bore by the two allies. As to the latest in the South Korean government's response to China's apparent sanctions, Seoul's foreign ministry in a regular press briefing said the government will support companies that have been affected by China's measures and it is considering raising the issue on the international stage and respond legally,... if necessary, to violations of the WTO and Seoul-Beijing Free Trade Agreement.

Most importantly, Seoul reiterated its stance that the primary reason for the THAAD deployment is the North's missile threats. "Seoul and Washington's decision came as North Korea's nuclear and missile threat exists, getting larger and imminent. There is no other purpose in this decision as it came in line with the Seoul-Washington alliance and according to priority.

While standing consistent, there are voices that Seoul and Washington must use diverse channels to explain the necessity of the THAAD deployment and calm Beijing's anger.

China - bans imports of 19 Korean cosmetics products in December: Yonhap: ARIRANG NEWS

ARIRANG NEWS

Published on 7 Feb 2017

중국, 12월에도 한국산 화장품 대거 불허... 식품도 포함

While Seoul and Washington remain firm on their plan to deploy the U.S. missile defense system THAAD to South Korea,... China appears to be showing more signs of discontent. In fact, today, Beijing openly said it's also against the possible deployment of U.S. stealth destroyer, the USS Zumwalt, in South Korea's southernmost island of Jeju. 

It's not just rhetoric... today, we're learning of more South Korean cosmetic products being rejected entry into the Chinese market. 

Oh Jung-hee reports. 

As they did in November,... Chinese authorities banned the import of Korean cosmetics again in December.
According to a list posted on the website of China's quarantine and quality inspection agency on Monday,... 19 Korean cosmetics products were banned,... citing poor quality.

That accounts for almost 30-percent of the total number of banned cosmetics products in China.
The rejected products range from skin lotions and cleansers to makeup base,... all of which enjoy great popularity in the Chinese market.

Also rejected were over 20 tons of Korean food products,... including ramyeon, or instant noodles, snacks and rice.

The import bans revealed on Monday are in addition to restrictions already in place in December for not only cosmetics... but for bidets and air purifiers, all for supposed issues with quality and safety.

The bans are widely seen as relatiation by Beijing for Seoul's decision to deploy the THAAD missile defense system to the peninsula, which it's expressed through written and verbal statements, and through tightened restrictions on Korean businesses. "Though they say import bans are not related to the deployment of THAAD,... I personally think China has already started to retaliate. THAAD is directly connected to China's core national interest, so China wants to delay it and talk it over with Korea's next administration. But with Seoul's defense and foreign ministries standing firm,... China sees no choice but stronger retaliatory measures."

In response to China's opposition,... experts say Korea should keep communication lines open with the Chinese authorities to prevent an unnecessarily heated dispute. "China doesn't want to hurt its economic ties with Korea, either. So Korea has to keep the dialogue going on the diplomatic front and prevent the THAAD issue from becoming a major source of conflict,... while stressing that THAAD deployment is crucial for Korea's national security and interest."

29 September 2021

Beijing allows two American siblings to leave China and come home after three years. Their father is one of China’s most-wanted corrupt officials. Beijing accuses him of committing major bank fraud. Power shortages cause issues across China, and American businesses are feeling the pain. Coal shortages may play a role, but some say the real cause is the Chinese Communist Party’s global ambition. A China affairs analyst breaks it down. America is spending big bucks to kick Huawei out of U.S. networks. One government agency is now lending a hand to rural telecom carriers. Heavy rains drench northern China. The continued downpours have already caused flooding and mudslides. China’s real estate industry seems to be booming, but many buildings are being ripped down.

"Housing price to income ratio" refers to the ratio of the average home price to the average annual household income.

According to China's national housing price statistics for 2020, mainland China ranks first among the world's top economies regarding housing price to income, with a value close to 30. In other words it takes a Chinese household 30 years, without eating or drinking to afford a home.

China - #Taiwan #China #Economy China puts increased economic pressure on Taiwan | DW News

12 October 2021

President Xi Jinping has vowed to reunify mainland China with self-ruled Taiwan - adding to growing tensions between the two governments. Speaking to mark the 110th anniversary of China's 1911 revolution, President Xi said he wanted to return Taiwan to Chinese rule through peaceful means. President Tsai Ing-wen said Taiwan would not bow to pressure. China has been attempting to place the island under economic strain by increasing controls on exports. Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen took a strong stance against what Taipei sees as Chinese aggression on Sunday, saying in a speech that her country would "not bow to pressure" from Beijing. Tsai said she hoped for an easing of tensions, but that "we will continue to bolster our national defense and demonstrate our determination to defend ourselves in order to ensure that nobody can force Taiwan to take the path China has laid out for us... as it offers neither a free and democratic way of life for Taiwan, nor sovereignty for our 23 million people." The president's speech was to mark Taiwan's National Day, which celebrates the start of the 1911 Wuchang Uprising that ended China's Qing Dynasty and the establishment of the Republic of China, whose government relocated to Taiwan as a result of the Chinese Civil War.

Korea - exports to China fall for 13th straight month in July: ARIRANG NEWS

ARIRANG NEWS

Published on Aug 16, 2016

대중국 수출부진 끝이 안보인다…13개월 연속 감소

The prospects for positive growth in Korea's export market are fading,... as the global economy has yet to pick up steam, and that includes China -- Korea's largest trading partner.

Analysts say Seoul may need to review its strategy.

Kim Min-ji reports. 

Korea's exports have fallen every month for over a year and a half now,... and there had been hopes of a recovery in the second half of the year.

But with the slow growth in the global economy,... especially China,... the prospects for a turnaround are dimming.

"China accounts for about a quarter of Korea's exports, which is an important factor determining whether Korea's outbound shipments can improve. Exports to China have fallen, so it depends on how much it can pick up."

According to the Korea International Trade Association,... Korea's exports to China came to 10-point-1 billion U.S. dollars in July,... down 9-point-4 percent from a year ago.

That extends the country's downward streak for a record 13 straight months. 

However, in a glint of light,... the pace of decline slowed from the previous month. 

Imports also shrank over 8 percent to just over seven billion dollars during the same period,... resulting in a trade surplus of about 3-point-1 billion dollars.

Exports of key items, such as semiconductors and flat panel displays,... led the decline.

Semiconductors, Korea's number one export item to China,... fell over 14 percent from the same period last year,... while display panels fell more than 19 percent.

But petroleum products spiked 35 percent,... while auto parts also jumped nearly 13 percent.

"Until now, growth has been centered around exports of intermediary goods. But Korea now needs to focus on consumer goods... and ramp up investment in areas it is good at,... such as food products, cosmetics and cultural content,... and open new markets."

Another option for Korea is to diversify its export partners and reduce its dependence on China. One country where analysts see potential is Vietnam,... which has risen as Korea's third largest export partner,... thanks to a free trade deal that took effect last year,... and as it is a production base for many companies.

However, experts say that... at the end of the day,... for a tangible recovery,... it's all down to how soon the global economy picks up steam, which will in turn drive up the demand for exports.

China - #CNBC #HongKong #China Can Hong Kong Survive As Asia’s Financial Hub? CNBC 1.67M subscribers

Beijing has rushed to push through a new national security law in Hong Kong. Critics fear the legislation threatens civil liberties promised to the territory through July 1, 2047. The city’s special status with the U.S. also appears to be under threat, as U.S.-China tensions escalate over Beijing’s move to tighten its grip. 

The central Chinese government passed a sweeping new security law for Hong Kong that took effect just hours before the 23rd anniversary of the city’s handover from the U.K. to China on Wednesday. 

The National Security Law strengthens Beijing’s control on Hong Kong, a semi-autonomous region with greater democratic freedoms and alignment with international business standards than the mainland. That special status has made Hong Kong an attractive hub for many international companies wanting to tap the Greater China market.

“Some of the recent happenings in Hong Kong represent a deviation from ‘one country, two systems,’” Zhang Xiaoming, executive deputy director of Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council, said Wednesday at a press conference. 

 He was referring to the framework that allows Hong Kong some legal and economic autonomy that other Chinese cities do not have. Hong Kong, a special administrative region of China, was a British colony that returned to Chinese rule in 1997. “The purpose is not to take the pro-democratic camp in Hong Kong as an imaginary enemy. 

The purpose is combating a narrow category of crimes against national security,” Zhang said, according to an official English translation of his Mandarin-language remarks. “The ‘one country two systems’ has already spoken volumes of the political tolerance of the central (government).”

 “People with different views, they may continue to exist for a long time in Hong Kong ... You should not use this (difference in views) as a pretext to ... turn Hong Kong into a safe haven of anti-China forces,” he said. 

Under the new legislation, many of the activities carried out by protesters in Hong Kong over the last year become punishable by law. What began as largely peaceful mass protests against a controversial extradition bill more than 12 months ago turned into violent clashes with police. 

An official English translation of the new law stipulates that a person who acts with a view to “undermining national unification” of Hong Kong with the mainland faces punishment of up to lifetime, depending on the severity of the offense. Financial support for such activities is also a crime. 

The security law also laid out in broad strokes what could be deemed offenses by “terrorist organizations” and those who collude with foreign entities. 

 The text also says those who are not permanent Hong Kong residents can be deported if they break the law. 

 Under Chinese President Xi Jinping, Beijing’s decision to move ahead with the law comes despite strong criticism from Europe and the U.S. 

EU Council President Charles Michel said Tuesday that “We deplore the decision,” according to a Reuters report. 

U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration has also taken steps toward eliminating Hong Kong’s special trading status with the world’s largest economy, beginning with restrictions on defense exports and access to high technology products. 

Other aspects of the law indicated how Beijing would strengthen its hand in Hong Kong’s affairs. 

Based on the law, a new office for maintaining national security located in Hong Kong will not be subject to the special administrative region’s authority. Zhang said Wednesday that many cases handled by the national security office may involve state secrets. 

A national security advisor designated by the central government will sit in on meetings of a Committee for Safeguarding National Security of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the law said.

Under the new anti-democracy “law” imposed by #China on #HongKong, the Communist Party can now arrest someone visiting HK for what they say have said or written anywhere in the world. https://t.co/53u6ayIpns

China - #documentary #dwdocumentary The world of China’s President Xi Jinping | DW Documentary

Tweet 

  Linkedin   

30 July 2022

President Xi Jinping wants to establish the People's Republic of China as the leading world power of tomorrow. Never before has China been so successful and pursued such ambitious goals. And never before has China so upset the global political balance. The person largely responsible for China‘s dramatic shift is the President of the People's Republic, Xi Jinping. As the key figure in Chinese politics, he has steered the communist country with sober pragmatism and calculation since 2013. In terms of domestic policy, Xi strives for the "perfect dictatorship." When it comes to foreign policy, he wants to rewrite the international rules. What are the goals of this mysterious autocrat, who was deeply influenced by Maoism in his youth? What motivates him? This documentary traces the rise of the Chinese president, and tries to answer the question of what his political plans for the future might look like. The Chinese president’s friendly demeanor should not obscure the fact that Xi Jinping is willing to do anything to fulfill the mission of his Communist Party: To make China the leading economic and military power by 2049, the 100th birthday of the People's Republic. In 2017, following extensive political purges, Beijing paved the way for Xi Jinping to be "president for life". His rallying cry is the "Chinese Dream," an ideology with nationalist overtones. Those who don't toe the line end up in prison and must publicly apologize. What’s more, a new electronic monitoring system is being implemented - to distinguish between good and bad citizens. On the international stage, Xi Jinping is trying to establish a new social order that is worrying for Western democracies. This documentary on President Xi Jinping is the first of its kind. A People's Liberation Army officer close to the halls of power, a Beijing historian, several regime critics, a former US ambassador to China and several biographers attempt to decipher Xi Jinping‘s uncompromising strategy.

Chinese military planes enter Korean and Japanese air defense zones: ARIRANG NEWS

ARIRANG NEWS

Published on 9 Jan 2017

중 군용기 10여대 이어도 한국방공식별 구역 수시간 침범
The South Korean military is looking into the aerial intrusion by multiple Chinese military aircraft into Korea's defense identification zone on Monday. 

The area is near a cross-section of Korea, China and Japan's zones.

Kim Jung-soo has the details. 

Korean military officials said Tuesday ten Chinese military planes had been spotted entering the Korean air defense identification zone "several times" from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Korea time.

The planes included six strategic bombers and early-warning aircraft.

A spokesperson for Korea's ministry of defense noted that lone Chinese bombers repeatedly violated the zone last year, but said that the instance on Monday was noteworthy because it is rare for multiple aircraft to cross into the zone.

The planes made multiple passes into the zone near Ieodo, a submerged rock located off the southern coast of Jeju Island, and went through the Korea Strait into Tsushima Strait in Japan before returning to China via the East China Sea.

A military official said South Korea reacted to the incursion by sending roughly ten fighter jets -- including F-15Ks and KF-16s -- to the area, which reportedly sent warning signals to the Chinese planes.
The South Korean Air Force also delivered warning messages to its Chinese counterpart.

China has reportedly explained its actions by saying the flights were part of a military drill in its own air defense identification zone, which it unilaterally declared in November of 2013 and which overlaps with Korea's and Japan's.

But there are some experts who interpret the action as China's way of expressing its discontent with Korea's decision to deploy the THAAD missile defense system to the Korean Peninsula, as well as its dissatisfaction with its control over parts of the East China Sea and developments in the military coalitions between South Korea, Japan and the United States.

But government sources have said that China's actions shouldn't necessarily be linked to its current diplomatic posture.

South Korea - China hold summit: Xi expresses concern over THAAD deployment: ARIRANG NEWS

ARIRANG NEWS

Published on Sep 4, 2016

한중 정상회담, G20 계기로 열려.. 시진핑, '사드 부적절 처리 논쟁 악화시킬 것'
Let's start with the highly-anticipated summit between the leaders of South Korea and China.
President Park Geun-hye and her Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping held their one-on-one talks this morning in Hangzhou,... the host city for the ongoing G20 Summit.

The outcome of their discussions on THAAD and its upcoming arrival in South Korea is what many had been waiting for. 

We're going to connect to our correspondent Song Ji-sun,... who is traveling with President Park.
Ji-sun, the meeting is now over... what do we know so far?

Mark.
The two leaders sat down for 46 minutes this morning -- exceeding their pre-arranged 30 minute timeslot by more than a quarter of an hour.

The talks got off to an amicable start, with Presidents Park and Xi talking about Korea's independence movement, which blossomed in the region in the 1930s.

Citing the number of challenges on the economic and security fronts facing their two countries and the world,... President Park said they cannot be tackled by one country on its own, but that collaboration must take place across borders.

She also expressed South Korea's strong desire to strengthen bilateral relations through communication,... highlighting North Korea's nuclear and missile threats, which have been a stumbling block to Seoul-Beijing relations.

President Park asked China to do more to rein in its close ally North Korea... and for its understanding in regards to Seoul and Washington's decision to deploy the U.S. missile defense system THAAD in South Korea. 

South Korea and the U.S. say THAAD will help protect the South from Pyongyang's growing nuclear and missile threats, but China has been highly vocal in its opposition,... citing its own security concerns.
Noting the rising uncertainties on the Korean peninsula and throughout the region, President Xi said South Korea-China relations are sound and on the right path, but stressed the need to appreciate their common interests and political cooperation.

China has on numerous occasions called for a nuclear-free Korean peninsula,... but President Xi reiterated Beijing's anger over THAAD during his talks on Saturday with U.S. President Barack Obama... and again at this morning's talks with President Park, according to China's state-run Xinhua news agency.
President Xi reportedly said that "mishandling the issue is not conducive to strategic stability in the region and could intensify disputes."

We will have details once President Park's diplomatic secretary holds a press briefing shortly. Mark?

Well, we look forward to hearing what the secretary has to say on the talks,... and their discussions on THAAD, in particular. These talks took place on the sidelines of the G20 Summit... what left on the agenda there? More sessions on the global economy...?

Right.
Taking you back to the main event,... all the leaders are now at the G20 Summit... and the second session has just come to a close on this second and final day.

President Park is set to speak at sessions three and five.

She is going to urge global action for open and free trade to tackle growing international protectionism.
The president is also expected to touch upon Seoul's efforts to counter climate change.

Following a reception, a working lunch and the closing ceremony... the G20 will adopt the Hangzhou communique -- aimed at building an innovative, invigorated, interconnected and inclusive world economy.

I'll be back with the latest in our next newscast.

Back to you in Seoul.
