Listen Later

The National People's Congress starts on Tuesday, bringing together China’s political elite, as well as leaders in business, tech, media, and the arts. Rahul Tandon will be looking ahead to the congress as China’s leading economics official, premier Li Qiang has said he will not address the press this year.

Also Apple has been fined $2billion dollars by the EU for violating their anti- trust laws. We hear if it should it have been more for them to feel the impact?

Rahul Tandon is joined throughout by two guests on opposite sides of the world: Sergio Guzman, Director at Colombia Risk Analysis in Bogotá, Colombia and Stephanie Hare, Researcher on technology and ethics in London, UK.
