The PRC: Asia's 'apartheid' South Africa" Asia

Welcome to Asia, East by North. I’m Grant Newsham. Each week, Asia, East by North introduces a topic of current affairs interest in the Asia-Pacific region – particularly focusing on east and northeast Asia, and we offer our own perspectives and analysis – ideally offering subjects and ways of looking at them that you’ve not thought of. This week’s topic: The People’s Republic of China and South Africa.
I’m always hearing that the Chinese Communists have discovered a new way of running a country that no one else has – at least in recorded history. And we’re also told that the CCP ‘system’ of governance is uniquely suited for ‘China’ and ‘Chinese people.’
