Catching Up

I’m back after an action-packed trip through Ireland.

It amazes me how much can happen in just over one week. So for my first post back, I’m going to try to catch up by reviewing some of the most interesting posts to cross my screen over the past ten days.

  • China raised interest rates and China Economics Blog had it covered here, as did China Confidential.
  • Angry Chinese Blogger provides a rare, fascinating glimpse into riots in rural village of Zhushan.
  • Must-read piece on Vice President Cheney’s efforts to “contain” China from China Matters.
  • Another exceptional post from China Matters on China’s role in the Iran sanctions fiasco.  Reminds of a post I did on loan sanctions in the context of China’s financing illegitimate regimes in Africa.
  • Good post from Richard Spencer of the Telegraph weighing on the China threat.
  • Interesting post from Tim Johnson at China Rises on China’s new development deal with Sri Lanka, which has raised eyebrows in India.

I’m glossing over some great work and I’m certain I’ve missed many more, but I’m feeling caught up…

    I can think of many other things as well. Can’t wait to trash it.
