MENGFEI LI | Focusing on Solutions in Unprecedented Times

How China Works

"Just because you CAN do something, doesn't mean you SHOULD do something.” Timeless words of wisdom, shared here by the ever-insightful Beijing-based MENGFEI LI on a very relevant episode of our show. His perspective - as an international journalist who lived in the US for 13 years and has a lot of love for the country, but who also has the clarity of someone trained to be a detached observer - has led him to many insights we’re glad to share. We discuss, among other things, how political reactions affected the spread of COVID-19 in different countries; the near-term futures we can anticipate; the power of engaged citizenship; and most provocatively, the meaning of the word FREEDOM. We’re cross-posting this show on “Big Fish in the Middle Kingdom” this week to reach as wide an audience as possible. Please share, SUBSCRIBE, and enjoy.
