Issued on:

The yearly session of China's parliament, the National People's Congress (NPC), opens this Wednesday and will last for two weeks. The gathering serves as a show of unity of the nation and the ruling party. Overshadowing the NPC is an attack that took place over the weekend in Kunming city, where some 30 people were killed. China-watcher Michael Dillon discusses what kind of policy we can expect from Beijing in the coming year.
