Question.1278 - In this week's discussion, I would like you to discuss the key topics that were covered in the readings, lectures and videos: 1. What demographic challenges are evident in different countries in this region? Are these challenges the result of the normal demographic transition or are there other causes? 2. Hong Kong and Taiwan hold special status within China. Discuss their relationship with the government in Beijing. 3. The South China Sea is an important waterway for global trade. What are the backgrounds to some of the tensions that seem to be increasing in that part of the world? What is the interest of the U.S. in the South China Sea?
