Reflecting back on over 25 years and four editions of my China Law Deskbook, published by the American Bar Association starting in 1999 and every five years thereafter. I started writing the 1st edition in 1991 as a single volume bundle of joint venture and commercial laws that I tossed in my suitcase for travel around the country accompanied by foreign clients eager to tap the market. While the Deskbook is this foreign lawyer's perspective of China's legal/political system, it reflects three decades of China's legal developments, for better or worse. As my writing interests have evolved, we'll see if I will ever finish the 5th edition.

I just finished reading award-winning journalist Jim Laurie’s engaging memoir The Last Helicopter: Two Lives in Indochina. A must-read, highly recommended account for readers with an interest in Vietnam, Cambodia, and Southeast Asia modern history. The book is a raw and visceral take of life in a war zone ― a love story, a rescue gone awry, and lives separated by tumultuous events. As a young war correspondent, Jim Laurie lived through extraordinary times as both a witness and participant and sharing his personal journey with all its heartache is nothing short of courageous. @JimLaurie_Asia

Rich and subtle…. Or more like embarrassing and childish
Our vice president will attend Trump's inauguration, let's get some deals done. We'll recognize your sovereignty over Canada, and you stay out of the way during our liberation of Taiwan.
