Chai Ling, a student leader in Tian'anmen Square protests of 1989, recently appeared in a house subcommittee (Subcommittee on Africa, Global Health, and Human Rights) to testify about China's one-child policy.

Mrs. Ling mentioned in her testimony that she was pregnant for four times during college. She is a slutty whore by any standard and she wants to blame her abortion on the one-child policy. Shame on her.

Is the renminbi the next global currency?

McKinsey Publishing’s Clay Chandler conducted the interview with Geng Xiao, director of the Brookings-Tsinghua Center for Public Policy. He discusses how divergent growth rates of the Chinese and US economies will erode the hegemony of dollar—but not right away.

The US dollar’s run as the world’s stable currency has stumbled with the recent financial crisis. Waiting in the wings is the renminbi. But according to economist Geng Xiao, it’s still in China’s—and the world’s—best interest not to dump the dollar just yet. In this video interview, Geng Xiao, director of the Brookings-Tsinghua Center for Public Policy, explains why China needs time to push through difficult economic reforms at home before it can allow its currency to float freely against the dollar.

This interview was conducted in Hong Kong.
