Sjoerd has Chinese govt-issued journalist accreditation and a journalist visa. Chinese law protects the rights of foreign journalists invited into the country to do their job. This is lawless thuggery. But not surprising, sadly.

Some good news: China, once the poster child for smog-filled skies, has been a surprise success story. Between 2013 and 2021 overall air quality improved by more than 40% while the average lifespan of residents increased by more than two years, https://t.co/tuWSs2IXKd

🧵Today, @Reuters today published something a little different: a narrative I wrote about the beginnings of our project exploring the legacy of slavery in America – a memory of something my grandfather once said – and the personal reporting journey I took https://t.co/aMr5WY37pg

After six years, I’ve left @SixthTone. Or conditions were created for me to leave after publishing a project that criticized “zero-COVID,” which landed multiple people in hot water. It’s been bittersweet leaving a place we’ve built over the years but it was time.

A deep dive w/@TomHale_ on what might have derailed Vanguard's robo-advisory JV with Ant - "In absence of geopolitical disruptions, the failures of Vanguard’s approach emphasise how ... a US success does not necessarily translate for the Chinese market."

Feel honored and grateful to be recognised by @Reuters as the Reporter of the Year. It’s especially meaningful for us Chinese journalists working in mainland where we face one of the most difficult journalism environments in the world.

A new Chinese financial watchdog will help bridge regulatory gaps, but analysts and investors say the agency will consolidate power at the top and could introduce more state and party intervention. By @xieyuxy, @Selena_Li_QW, @julie_zhuli, @carolinamandl https://t.co/Im4ddgs9ES

Five years before Li Qiang becomes China's premier, he was already working behind the scene to push for a bold revamp of Shanghai's sclertic stock market, bypassing CSRC.
