Saturday Mornings: "China’s Global Governance Push & Golden Week: What It Means for Asia and Beyond"
Description
This week, Eric Olander, Editor-in-Chief of The China-Global South Project, joins us to unpack China’s latest foreign policy blueprint—the Global Governance Initiative (GGI). Launched at the recent SCO summit, the GGI adds a new layer to China’s expanding portfolio of global influence strategies, including the BRI, GSI, and GDI. Eric explains how the GGI aims to reshape international norms through consensus-based rulemaking, appealing to governments across Asia, Africa, and Latin America. But what does this mean for multilateralism, and how might it affect middle powers like Singapore? “Saturday Mornings Show” host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys also explore China’s “Super Golden Week” (Oct 1–8), a travel surge that combines National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival. With millions on the move domestically and abroad, the week offers insights into China’s consumer confidence, tourism recovery, and regional economic impact.
