BIOGRAPHY

Print print icon

Jonathan Fenby is the former Editor of the South China Morning Post, Hong Kong's leading English-language newspaper. He returned to the UK in 2005, and has since edited The Penguin History of Modern China.

Jonathan describes the real fabric of China. Against a backdrop of increasing wealth, freedom and even accountability, power remains closely guarded by the centre and the regional administrations. External relations show pressure on the relationship with Japan and Taiwan.

For those doing business with China, Jonathan explains how the banking, legal and property systems differ wildly from those with which we are familiar in the West.

Jonathan began his career as European Correspondent at the Economist, before becoming Editor of the Observer. From there he moved to Hong Kong, where aside from traditional publishing he co-founded the news website earlywarning.com.
