Dr. Chris Colley of the Air War College, gave a lively briefing on China's influence in the Indo-Pacific region.
Having studied in China for years, he was especially adept at explaining China's perspectives on her neighbors, as well as China's long term challenges in demographics, strategy, the economy and the military. Numerous well-off Chinese have gone to study abroad or work abroad permanently.
