No Newsletter Today

Apologies, I need to take a personal day. The newsletter will be back to normal Thursday.

There was no announcement on the 23rd of dates for an October NPC Standing Committee meeting, so if the government is adhering to seven days advance notice for an NPC Standing Committee meeting then the October one would convene on the 31st at earliest.

I published this week’s episode of Sharp China earlier today - Questions for BRICS and the NPC; PRC Nuclear Arsenal and Ambitions; Taiwan's Energy Security; Heightened Scrutiny on TSMC and the Biden Admin.

Thanks for your patience. Bill
