China Perspective Podcast: Why Shanghai residents are sceptical of lifting of Covid restrictions

Synopsis: The Straits Times analyses the latest developments in China in this weekly podcast.

The Straits Times' China bureau chief Tan Dawn Wei chats with Money FM 89.3's Adrian Abraham who is sitting in for Elliott Danker.

The team discusses how China's zero-Covid policy is taking a toll on its economy and will Shanghai's Covid-19 restrictions be lifted any time soon? And are China's recent PLA exercises an indication that it is one step closer to making its move on Taiwan?
