2016 in Review: China's Global Ambitions

As we look back on the year, we reflect on the coverage we did on the biggest story of the decade: the rise of China. With headlines like "$100 Billion Chinese-Made City Near Singapore 'Scares the Hell Out of Everybody’" (Bloomberg), it's a narrative that has developed with a significant Malaysian footnote. In this episode we have excerpts from the best Breakfast Grille conversations we have had throughout the year on China with various thinkers and industry leaders.
