China’s Quest For Self-Sufficiency | Preparing For Dangerous Storms - Part 2/3 | CNA Documentary

President Xi has asked China to “prepare for Dangerous Storms”, and so the country is working towards greater technological independence, amidst an ongoing semiconductor war with the U.S.

China is also working towards greater energy self-sufficiency, ramping up its nuclear energy, and green energy infrastructure projects. In food supply, it is pushing out new technologies such as sea rice, to improve its self-sufficiency. Central bankers are also doubling down on efforts to internationalize the RMB currency, and reduce reliance on the U.S. dollar.

What does the quest for self-sufficiency in so many sectors of the economy mean for the country? Prominent thinkers and political scientists share their opinions.
