South China Sea: BBC on board Philippine ship hit by Chinese water cannon bbc.co.uk/news/world-asi…
Shanghai’s hairdresser game is fascinating. A crop of vintage barbers has popped up, and now my normal average hairdresser’s had a renovation, and I get coffee in a fancy cup and hu die su, a wall of books, and a wall of whisky. Same price, same historic building. #shanghai
On board a Philippines coastguard ship, being hounded by at least 5 Chinese vessels, near Scarborough Shoal. Aggressively tactics by the Chinese, completely blocking one Philippines boat and hammering ours with water cannon.
Devastating @fergalkeane47 piece on @BBCNews 10 just now, using an American medic’s footage from Gaza. Children nearly dead from starvation-gaunt, lifeless, cadaverous. Unimaginable suffering for innocents.
The EU would need to impose huge tariffs of about 50 per cent to stem the flow of cheap Chinese electric vehicles into the bloc, according to new analysis. ft.com/content/8e4a9e…

Great UK politics explainer from Channel 4 news - Why 36 MPs have quit or been suspended since the last election youtube.com/watch?v=VQ5DV6…
@EP_Lawrence Does Apple know this was the location of the international settlement cemetery that was destroyed after communist revolution?
Exactly. The relevant discussions are getting ridiculous. Shall the Chinese start checking who received and saw Wang Yi off in the U.S. and if two red carpets were deployed? And why a Secretary of State - a Minister - should be seated equally to a head of state anyway?

Finally stumbled across the glitzy new Apple Store at Jing’an temple in Shanghai. Also a coffee shop down there. Feels a bit like Paddington basin.
Stuck in Beijing traffic and getting close to my train departure time. Anxiety setting in. Taxi driver who can see I’m a bit stressed kindly offers me a cigarette. I don’t smoke, but very kind nonetheless. Beijing taxi drivers are always a lot of fun.
Protesters accused police of excessive force during arrests at an anti-war protest camp at Emory University in the US where one female professor was hauled to the ground and detained and another demonstrator tasered.
Feels like a pretty seismic week in EU-China relations. I get the feeling that we're not in Kansas anymore Here is a summary of the major events that have happened, let me know if I missed any, bearing in mind it's still only lunchtime on Friday...
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken speaks to @BBCLBicker at the end of this week's trip to China. bbc.co.uk/news/world-asi…

The worst thing about global attention on the Chinese auto industry is the absolute number of grifters who have pivoted to giving commentary on the topic whilst knowing nothing about it.
Deciphering the recent reveal of Cultural Revolution-era slogans on a Fuxing Xi Lu wall. Pic 1: 中国共产党[万岁]! Long live the Communist Party of China! Pic 2’s not as clear except for Mao Zedong thought and Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution, which puts it at 1967.
This is categorically false. Director of N. America and Oceanic Affairs Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Yang Tao was there to see Blinken off. He was also there when Blinken arrived in Beijing.

Xi Jinping holding court with Blinken and the US ambassador to China Nick Burns on the left. Lots of imposing misty mountain paintings in Chinese meeting rooms, I've noticed.

"Look carefully, including in far-off spots like Wenchang, and Sino-Russian interests are aligning in ways that may prove enduring…China wants to harness Russia’s decades of expertise in space. Russia’s space programme needs China’s money." @DSORennie economist.com/china/2024/04/…
