Policy & Intelligence
Tom Uren and Amberleigh Jack talk about the Chinese government’s reactive approach to tackling scam compounds. It’s driven by bad news on domestic media and therefore focusses on the compounds that are targeting Chinese citizens. Rather than eliminating the industry, that may instead be shaping the industry to focus on other countries and particularly Americans.
They also discuss the role of disruptive cyber operations in the US’s raid to capture Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.
