Episode description

This week the Communist Party of China assembled it’s congress for a week-long meeting at which the party officials will decide on a new leader for the country. The Party Congress will nominate and select people to fill some of the country's top political and military positions for the next 10 years. The six-day meeting began on Thursday but it is expected to be at least another week before China's new cabinet will be revealed to the world. Professor John Lee from Sydney University’s Centre for International Security Studies joined 2ser’s Rory O’Gorman to discuss what some of the implications of China’s leadership change might be.
