David Valentine, @VALinternat has been doing business with China for decades. How? He explains to think long-term – starting with dates working backwards. #BridgeBuilders

Growing up in China, British food vlogger Max Burns has devoted himself to teaching his favourite Chinese cuisine, of which there are many, to people around the world on social media, and presenting the rich Chinese culture behind the dishes. youtube.com/watch?v=PE2XQodP…

Better a neighbor nearby than a relative far away. China's #Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region just donated $47 million worth of food and winter supplies to its neighboring four provinces of #Afghanistan. In helping Afghan people, China is always in action. globaltimes.cn/page/202112/1…

The US has announced #sanctions against 11 officials of #HongKong. The bull in the China shop is breaking everything it can, 'cause its tail is on fire: #COVID19, farmer bankruptcies, unemployment, loss of credibility, plummeting support, even retaliation from Canada. Wow.

Scotch Whisky needs your help to #CallTimeOnTariffs! Whether you’ve enjoyed a tour at one of Scotland’s magnificent distilleries, or if you simply enjoy savouring a dram: unfair tariffs are damaging the #ScotchWhisky and wider drinks industry and communities #sccbusiness
