Hello!
A quick weekly update before the weekend.
My two columns for this week:

Who after Xi Jinping? No clear successor means chaos ahead for China. Link
My two interviews with the media:
China curbs a ‘potential bargaining chip’ to counter US-led semiconductor ban, say experts. Link
晶片大战:中国限制出口半导体原材料 “以牙还牙”能否撼动全球供应链 (BBC Chinese). Chip wars: China's restrictions on exporting semiconductor raw materials is a "tit for tat" shaking up the global supply chain. Link
Other stories I am tracking:
