The Chinese Government's Response to Typhoon Doksuri

China Center Program Manager Shane Leary joins Miles Yu to discuss the Taiwan International Solidarity Act, which passed the US House of Representatives on July 25, and what it could mean for Taiwan’s position on the global stage if signed into law. They then talk about the Luocha Haishi Craze, a musical sensation taking China by storm which critiques the regime with incredible subtlety and has garnered over 9 billion views so far. Finally, they discuss the devastating flooding in northern China, and the popular resentment toward the government’s callous and insufficient response.
