Trade to top EU-China summit Posted: 19 Sep 2012 11:46 AM PDT | www.euronews.com This Thursday, European and Chinese leaders will gather in Brussels for the 15th EU-China summit. Traditionally, trade, the economy and the environment have topped the agenda and this time looks set to be no different. A spat over cheap Chinese solar panels is one issue expected to dominate discussions. In addition, EU leaders are also expected to use the summit to push Beijing to change its stance on Syria. Despite such differences, relations between the two powers are increasingly close. Speaking from China town in the Belgian city of Antwerp euronews' Isabel Silva said: ''One of the clearest signs of deepening ties between Europe and China is the flow of students in both directions. In Belgium alone, there are 2300 Chinese students. Many young Europeans also want to work in China.'' While it is unclear whether Europe's economic crisis is encouraging EU citizens to learn Chinese, it seems a growing number of Europeans want to pick up the language. In September, Antwerp's Management School launched its own masters degree in 'China-Europe Business Studies.'' In all, 16 students signed up. The course is divided between study time in Belgium and China so students are able to put theory into practice. But as some of them warn, big cultural differences, especially in the way business is done, remain.

Listening Post - Feature: Pushing the limits of Chinese journalism Posted: 23 Sep 2012 04:52 AM PDT | When the world pays attention to Chinese journalism, it is usually for the wrong reasons. The Paris-based press freedom group, Reporters Without Borders, ranks China as the sixth most repressive media environment in the world. Chinese reporters and the outlets they work for are routinely written off as mere government mouthpieces. The Communist Party does maintain a tight grip in most areas, but media production in China has exploded over the past three decades, and with that has come new competition for readers, viewers and revenues. That has given rise to a new kind of investigative reporting. News outlets have found that, like anywhere else, exposing wrongdoing and unearthing the odd scandal can be good for business. Investigative reporting in China is not without its limits or risks. But China is no longer the journalistic black hole it once was. The Listening Post's Meenakshi Ravi looks at the grey areas, and the reporters finding ways to produce some high quality, muckraking journalism in the world's largest one-party state. | Views: 1146 38 ratings | Time: 08:24 | More in News & Politics |
