Implications of China’s 2018 Constitutional Changes
On Friday, March 30 the Chinese Chamber of Commerce hosted a panel to discuss the impact of the recent changes in the Chinese Constitution. Our Board Chair, Rich Lauf and Board of Director, Bill Sena participated as panelists on behalf of the Council. The discussion covered several important changes largely overlooked by the news coverage, which has mainly focused on removal of Presidential and Vice Presidential term limits. “I probably learned more than I contributed, since fellow panel members included some deep experts on China,” said Rich Lauf.
