The detention of four Rio Tinto employees in China, including an Australian citizen, for alleged commercial espionage highlights the many uncertainties of doing business in China. While details of the allegations are still unclear, the case seems focused on negotiations between Chinese steelmakers and Rio Tinto over iron ore, and information used in those talks. As Chinese companies have government ties and steel is strategic, the case involves more than just commercial matters. The detention has escalated tensions between China and Australia.
The document discusses the cruel practice of bear bile farming. Bears are kept in small cages and have catheters inserted into their gallbladders to extract bile for use in traditional Chinese medicine. This causes immense suffering for the bears. While bear bile was traditionally used in Chinese medicine, there are effective herbal alternatives like coptis and rhubarb that can be used instead. Removing demand for bear bile products is key to ending this inhumane practice.
