<p>自从3月11日出席中国全国两会闭幕式以后，中共军队的二号人物、中央军委副主席何卫东就没有再公开露面。何卫东没有出现在3月14日的<a href="https://www.zaobao.com.sg/news/china/story20250314-6019568">《反分裂国家法》实施20周年座谈会</a>上，也没有参加4月2日在北京通州举行的义务植树活动，更<a href="https://www.zaobao.com.sg/news/china/story20250410-6149108">没有现身4月8日的中央周边工作会议</a>。</p> <p>在这场会议上，中共政治局委员几乎全员出席，除了何卫东。这是不是等于对外证实了何卫东已经出事？他犯了什么问题？</p> <p>就在这个月初，中共高层也出现了一次罕见的人事异动：中共中央统战部部长石泰峰与中共中央组织部部长李干杰<a href="https://www.zaobao.com.sg/realtime/china/story20250402-6104055">对调了职务</a>。这期的早报播客《<a href="https://www.zaobao.com/keywords/global-heartbeat">东谈西论</a>》，听主持人<a href="https://www.zaobao.com.sg/byline/han-yong-hong">韩咏红</a>与台湾国立政治大学政治系教授寇健文聊中国高层在短期内出现罕见的人事异动，这里头有什么蹊跷？</p> <p><strong>延伸阅读：</strong></p> <ul> <li aria-level="1"><a href="https://www.zaobao.com.sg/news/china/story20250403-6109102">中共高层出现罕见人事调整 中组部统战部对调一把手</a></li> <li aria-level="1"><a href="https://www.zaobao.com.sg/news/china/story20250401-6101886">【东谈西论】解放军高层落马 传言不断</a></li> </ul> <p>The sudden disappearance of General He Weidong, Vice Chairman of China's Central Military Commission, has sparked intense speculation about potential power struggles within the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). He Weidong, considered the second-most powerful figure in the Chinese military, has been absent from public view since the closing of the National People's Congress on March 11. His absence from key events, including the 20th anniversary of the Anti-Secession Law, has fuelled rumours of his potential downfall.</p> <p>Adding to the intrigue is a recent, unexpected reshuffling within the CCP Politburo. Shi Taifeng, former head of the United Front Work Department, and Li Ganjie, former head of the Organisation Department, have swapped positions. This abrupt shift in such crucial roles has further intensified speculation about internal political dynamics. </p> <p>While some analysts suggest a potential purge within the military, others posit that the reshuffle could be related to broader policy shifts or simply routine personnel changes. The lack of official explanation from Beijing only adds to the mystery surrounding these events.</p> <p>These developments raise critical questions about the stability of the CCP leadership and the direction of China's political and military trajectory. Is this a sign of Xi Jinping consolidating power, or is there something more at play?</p> <p>This episode of Global Heartbeat podcast invites Professor Chien-Wen Kou from the Department of Political Science, Taiwan’s National Chengchi University to provide insightful analysis on these recent events and their implications.</p> <p>Hosted by Lianhe Zaobao’s Associate Editor, Han Yong Hong, Global Heartbeat is a Mandarin weekly news and current affairs podcast that is updated every Tuesday, 7.00 PM SGT.

<p>美国总统特朗普在4月2日当天如期宣布，将对美国在全球的180个贸易伙伴<a href="https://www.zaobao.com.sg/realtime/world/story20250403-6109807">加征关税</a>。最低的税率是10%，最高则高达50%。</p> <p>特朗普认为，加征关税会让制造业再次回到美国，让美国再次富有起来。但他的关税主义带来的，却是<a href="https://www.zaobao.com.sg/news/world/story20250405-6123111">美国股市连日暴跌</a>。</p> <p>在中国宣布反制措施后，星期一开盘的亚太股市也<a href="https://www.zaobao.com.sg/realtime/world/story20250407-6129280">全线大跌约10%</a>。</p> <p>特朗普说，<a href="https://www.zaobao.com.sg/news/world/story20250407-6131491">美国需要吃药治病</a>。他给大家开的这剂“关税药”，究竟会给世界带来什么？中美经济会因此脱钩吗？</p> <p>这期的早报播客《<a href="https://www.zaobao.com/keywords/global-heartbeat">东谈西论</a>》，听主持人<a href="https://www.zaobao.com.sg/byline/han-yong-hong">韩咏红</a>与新加坡优势研究咨询公司创始人兼CEO张帆及新加坡管理大学李光前商学院副教授傅方剑解析特朗普开的“关税药”如何影响全球的经济体。</p> <p><strong>延伸阅读：</strong></p> <ul> <li aria-level="1"><a href="https://www.zaobao.com.sg/forum/views/story20250406-6122969">吴汉钧：是解放日还是毁国日？</a></li> <li aria-level="1"><a href="https://www.zaobao.com.sg/forum/views/story20250406-6123072">王舒杨：特朗普实验</a></li> </ul> <p>Global markets are reeling after US President Donald Trump announced sweeping new tariffs on imports from 180 global trade partners. Trump described these tariffs as "medicine" for unfair trade practices, asserting they are necessary to revive American manufacturing and boost the U.S. economy. However, the move has triggered sharp criticism from international leaders and sent global stock markets into a tailspin.</p> <p>Asian economies are bracing for significant impacts, as some of the highest tariff rates target the region. For example, China faces a cumulative tariff rate of 54%, including earlier duties, while Vietnam and Cambodia face rates as high as 46% and 49%, respectively. China has already announced retaliatory measures, including a 34% tariff on US goods and restrictions on rare earth exports, escalating fears of a global trade war. While Trump insists these measures will level the playing field, critics argue they will harm American consumers, disrupt global supply chains, and strain international trade relations.</p> <p>The international community is scrambling to respond. Several nations, including Japan and India, are seeking negotiations with the U.S., while others are considering counter-tariffs of their own. The long-term consequences of Trump’s "medicine" remain uncertain, but the immediate impact has been widespread market volatility and growing concerns about a potential global recession.</p> <p>Tune in to Global Heartbeat for in-depth discussion on the implications of Trump’s tariff policies with Tim Zhang, Founder & CEO of Edge Research, and Fu Fangjian, Associate Professor of Finance at Singapore Management University’s Lee Kong Chian School of Business.</p> <p>Hosted by Lianhe Zaobao’s Associate Editor, Han Yong Hong, Global Heartbeat is a Mandarin weekly news and current affairs podcast that is updated every Tuesday, 7.00 PM SGT.
