Norway and China:  A frozen relationship with a touch of magical realism

Norway and China: A frozen relationship with a touch of magical realism

I’m flying from Amsterdam to Beijing.   As I land there, I have a visa-free 72 hours to explore the city.   I’m meeting my friend from Norway inside Beijing’s capacious terminal. He is flying from Oslo to Beijing.  But he needs an entry visa and all the hassle that goes with it. We’re both Europeans, so […]

Under the radar:  Little events that escaped our notice when Xi Jinping was being anointed

Under the radar: Little events that escaped our notice when Xi Jinping was being anointed

Big events obscure little events, especially when the media gets hold of them. To borrow a military analogy, little events creep under the radar, undetected, rather like stealth aircraft (ominously China has its own now), and may have a big or a small impact, depending upon their purpose and outcome.

Bosideng redux. A Chinese fashion brand in London with its market in China

It seems that Bosideng’s  PR machine has been working overtime the past week what with the announcement of international expansion and the brand’s supply contract with the English Premier League’s Queens Park Rangers Football Club.

15th China-EU Summit side-steps the bilateral trade friction, temporarily

15th China-EU Summit side-steps the bilateral trade friction, temporarily

It started as a diplomatic dance reminiscent of a stately pavane, delicately side-stepping recent trade controversies. It wasn’t meant to be rock ‘n’ roll (in any case, most unsuited to the classical environs of Brussels’ Palais d’Egmont where the proceedings took place) but it very nearly became that.
