How China’s biggest annual political gathering has changed – behind the scenes
China is getting ready to hold its most important political meetings of the year next week, known as the Two Sessions. They refer to the convening of its legislature – the National People’s Congress, or NPC, and its top political advisory body -- the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, or CPPCC. Associate Professor Alfred Wu from the National University of Singapore's Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy and CNA's China correspondent Olivia Siong discuss how these meetings have evolved over the years and why they matter.
