We are presenting a new podcast series, "Made in China." In the past decade, China has undergone a remarkable transformation, evolving from a hub of cheap labour and products to a competitor in innovation and pragmatic approaches on the global stage.
And nowhere is this more evident than in Central Asia, where China has stepped up as the main trading partner. That's why we decided to dive deep into these changes, chatting with businessmen from Central Asia who've been dealing with China for over a decade. We're talking opportunities, risks, challenges – the whole shebang.
With your host, Navruz Karimov, you will explore the pivotal shift in China's economic landscape and its ripple effects on Central Asian businesses. You're going to hear some crazy stories, get valuable insights, and maybe even learn a thing or two about trade with China.
