Jaime A. FlorCruz will be joining us from Manila. Please take note that to accommodate the time difference, his China Seminar talk is scheduled for 2:00 p.m. HST.
Jaime A. FlorCruz is an adjunct professor at Peking University and a veteran China-watcher.
He was CNN’s Beijing Bureau Chief and correspondent, responsible for strategic planning of the network’s news coverage of China (2001-2014). He served as TIME Magazine’s Beijing Bureau Chief and correspondent (1982-2000) and Newsweek’s Beijing reporter (1981).
Jaime ( Jimi ) FlorCruz, born in the Philippines, was a vocal anti-Marcos activist during his college days and in 1971 he traveled to the People’s Republic of China on a study tour. His three-week tour unexpectedly turned into an open-ended period of political exile in China.
