特朗普归来是新政还是乱政？Trump 2.0: Golden Age Or Global Shock? 东谈西论 podcast

27:47

自从3月11日出席中国全国两会闭幕式以后，中共军队的二号人物、中央军委副主席何卫东就没有再公开露面。何卫东没有出现在3月14日的《反分裂国家法》实施20周年座谈会上，也没有参加4月2日在北京通州举行的义务植树活动，更没有现身4月8日的中央周边工作会议。在这场会议上，中共政治局委员几乎全员出席，除了何卫东。这是不是等于对外证实了何卫东已经出事？他犯了什么问题？就在这个月初，中共高层也出现了一次罕见的人事异动：中共中央统战部部长石泰峰与中共中央组织部部长李干杰对调了职务。这期的早报播客《东谈西论》，听主持人韩咏红与台湾国立政治大学政治系教授寇健文聊中国高层在短期内出现罕见的人事异动，这里头有什么蹊跷？延伸阅读：中共高层出现罕见人事调整中组部统战部对调一把手【东谈西论】解放军高层落马传言不断 The sudden disappearance of General He Weidong, Vice Chairman of China's Central Military Commission, has sparked intense speculation about potential power struggles within the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). He Weidong, considered the second-most powerful figure in the Chinese military, has been absent from public view since the closing of the National People's Congress on March 11. His absence from key events, including the 20th anniversary of the Anti-Secession Law, has fuelled rumours of his potential downfall. Adding to the intrigue is a recent, unexpected reshuffling within the CCP Politburo. Shi Taifeng, former head of the United Front Work Department, and Li Ganjie, former head of the Organisation Department, have swapped positions. This abrupt shift in such crucial roles has further intensified speculation about internal political dynamics. While some analysts suggest a potential purge within the military, others posit that the reshuffle could be related to broader policy shifts or simply routine personnel changes. The lack of official explanation from Beijing only adds to the mystery surrounding these events. These developments raise critical questions about the stability of the CCP leadership and the direction of China's political and military trajectory. Is this a sign of Xi Jinping consolidating power, or is there something more at play? This episode of Global Heartbeat podcast invites Professor Chien-Wen Kou from the Department of Political Science, Taiwan’s National Chengchi University to provide insightful analysis on these recent events and their implications.

特朗普关税大战不撞南墙誓不休 Trump's tariffs: Cure or crisis? 31:38

美国总统特朗普在4月2日当天如期宣布，将对美国在全球的180个贸易伙伴加征关税。最低的税率是10%，最高则高达50%。特朗普认为，加征关税会让制造业再次回到美国，让美国再次富有起来。但他的关税主义带来的，却是美国股市连日暴跌。在中国宣布反制措施后，星期一开盘的亚太股市也全线大跌约10% 。特朗普说，美国需要吃药治病。他给大家开的这剂“关税药”，究竟会给世界带来什么？中美经济会因此脱钩吗？这期的早报播客《东谈西论》，听主持人韩咏红与新加坡优势研究咨询公司创始人兼CEO张帆及新加坡管理大学李光前商学院副教授傅方剑解析特朗普开的“关税药”如何影响全球的经济体。延伸阅读：吴汉钧：是解放日还是毁国日？王舒杨：特朗普实验 Global markets are reeling after US President Donald Trump announced sweeping new tariffs on imports from 180 global trade partners. Trump described these tariffs as "medicine" for unfair trade practices, asserting they are necessary to revive American manufacturing and boost the U.S. economy. However, the move has triggered sharp criticism from international leaders and sent global stock markets into a tailspin. Asian economies are bracing for significant impacts, as some of the highest tariff rates target the region. For example, China faces a cumulative tariff rate of 54%, including earlier duties, while Vietnam and Cambodia face rates as high as 46% and 49%, respectively. China has already announced retaliatory measures, including a 34% tariff on US goods and restrictions on rare earth exports, escalating fears of a global trade war. While Trump insists these measures will level the playing field, critics argue they will harm American consumers, disrupt global supply chains, and strain international trade relations. The international community is scrambling to respond. Several nations, including Japan and India, are seeking negotiations with the U.S., while others are considering counter-tariffs of their own. The long-term consequences of Trump’s "medicine" remain uncertain, but the immediate impact has been widespread market volatility and growing concerns about a potential global recession. Tune in to Global Heartbeat for in-depth discussion on the implications of Trump’s tariff policies with Tim Zhang, Founder & CEO of Edge Research, and Fu Fangjian, Associate Professor of Finance at Singapore Management University’s Lee Kong Chian School of Business.

美国总统特朗普3月4日在国会联席演说中，重申美国要收回巴拿马运河。他还提到，一家美国公司已经宣布计划买下巴拿马运河的两个港口。这家公司，就是著名的股权投资和资产管理公司贝莱德集团。就在3月4日深夜，香港首富李嘉诚旗下的长江和记实业有限公司宣布，与由贝莱德牵头的财团达成原则性协议。长江和记将向贝莱德出售其在全球23个国家的43个港口，其中包括位于巴拿马运河的两个港口。整个交易涉及228亿美元。这个消息带动长和股价隔天大涨接近22%，但却激怒了中国大陆。亲北京的香港《大公报》接连发文炮轰李嘉诚“丧权辱国” ，“将国家重要战略资产拱手让人”，“交易完美配合美国遏华战略”。据说，中国领导人对此也深感震怒。李嘉诚向美国财团出售港口，真的会损害中国的国家利益吗？中国政府又可能采取什么手段来阻止？按照程序，长和与贝莱德计划于4月2日进行最后的交割协议签署。到时，这次交易是否真的能够画上句点？这期的早报播客《东谈西论》，听主持人韩咏红和新加坡管理大学李光前商学院副教授傅方剑解析李嘉诚出售巴拿马运河港口所引发的争议。延伸阅读：杨丹旭：北京要如何处理长和交易？于泽远：李嘉诚又陷政治漩涡 In a stunning development that has sent shockwaves through global shipping and geopolitics, Hong Kong billionaire Li Ka-shing's CK Hutchison Holdings has agreed to sell its global ports business to a consortium led by US investment giant BlackRock for US$22.8 billion (S$30.5 billion). This deal, which includes 43 ports in 23 countries, notably strategic ports along the Panama Canal, has ignited a firestorm of controversy, particularly in China. The Chinese government and pro-Beijing media have launched scathing criticisms against Li Ka-shing. Critics claim Li is "surrendering national rights" and "handing over important strategic assets" to American interests. The deal has sparked intense discussions about the complex interplay between business, geopolitics, and national security, raising questions about the role of private companies in strategically sensitive areas. In this episode of Global Heartbeat podcast, Associate Professor of Finance from the Singapore Management University’s Lee Kong Chian School of Business, Fu Fangjian, joins host Han Yonghong to provide in-depth analysis of the geopolitical and economic implications of this high-stakes transaction that has put Hong Kong's most prominent tycoon in the middle of a growing China-US rivalry.

加拿大执政的自由党于当地时间3月9日举行党内选举，前央行行长马克·卡尼（Mark Carney）以压倒性优势胜出，这意味着他也接任新任总理。卡尼在胜选演讲中直指美国，表示美国企图占有加拿大的资源、水源和土地，甚至威胁到加拿大人的生活方式。但卡尼强调，加拿大将永远不会成为美国的一部分。自特朗普当选美国总统以来，加拿大面临日益严峻的挑战。特朗普和美国政府官员多次明示，加拿大应成为美国的第五十一个州。此外，特朗普政府宣布对加拿大和墨西哥的商品加征25%的关税，加拿大民众对这一系列言行强烈反应，激起了两国间的紧张局势，也大幅改变了加拿大国内政治格局。原本支持率奄奄一息的自由党通过坚决对抗美国的姿态，成功扭转了局势，支持率显著回升。与此同时，中国也对加拿大加征了商品关税。为何加拿大接连遭遇中美两国的双重施压？美加贸易战即将爆发，是否仍有转机？这期的早报播客《东谈西论》，主持人韩咏红与新加坡国立大学东亚研究所高级研究员陈波，一同拆解美、中、加三国的贸易战。延伸阅读：经济学家：特朗普关税若持续一年美国GDP增速或降1% 中国报复加拿大关税分析：警告他国勿跟随美国贸易壁垒 Former central banker Mark Carney will succeed Justin Trudeau as Canada’s prime minister, after emerging victorious in the Liberal Party leadership election with more than 85% of the votes. Carney's speech boldly criticised the United States' ambitions over Canadian resources and strongly affirmed Canada's sovereignty, stating that Canada "will never, ever be part of America in any way, shape, or form". Amid these political shifts, Canada faces mounting pressure, with Trump having previously suggested Canada join the U.S. as its 51st state and signed an executive order imposing a 25% tariff on Canadian goods. The situation is further complicated by China's recent announcement of retaliatory tariffs on Canadian imports.

These meetings focused on pressing regional issues like the Myanmar crisis and the rise of cryptocurrencies. Anwar's move has raised eyebrows due to Thaksin's controversial past and legal troubles.

Lured to Thailand under the guise of a filming opportunity in early January 2025, Wang Xing was abducted upon arrival and trafficked across the border to Myawaddy, Myanmar. He found himself imprisoned with around 50 other individuals, all of whom were forced to shave their heads. Thanks to his resourceful girlfriend, who alerted authorities and rallied support on social media, Wang Xing was rescued within days. His experience sheds light on a disturbing trend of kidnappings linked to Southeast Asian fraud operations. Following his rescue, over 170 Chinese families reported similar disappearances of loved ones in Myanmar, highlighting the alarming prevalence of human trafficking and forced labour in the region. The United Nations estimates a staggering 200,000 people are trapped in these scam centres across Southeast Asia, subjected to horrific conditions and forced to participate in criminal activities targeting Chinese communities worldwide. The lucrative nature of these scams, preying on cultural and linguistic ties, has led to Chinese individuals being cynically referred to as "walking RMB" by criminal gangs. The fear became so real that even Hong Kong singer Eason Chan cancelled his Bangkok concert due to safety concerns for his fans.
