Editor’s note for March 2, 2023

A note for Access newsletter readers from Jeremy Goldkorn.

My thoughts today:

Who will be in the post-COVID Chinese government and what will their policies look like in 2023?

We’ll know some answers starting this weekend as China’s annual “Two Sessions” meetings of the National People’s Congress (NPC) and Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) communicate their scripted decisions to the outside world.

We’ll have an introduction to this year’s event for you tomorrow and continuing coverage over the next week.
