- Will Xi Jinping cross the Taiwan Strait? | If You're Listening
- Runtime
- 24:04
- Date posted
- 2 days ago
- Description
- For decades, Beijing has pursued a simple strategy towards Taiwan: the carrot and the stick. The stick comes in the form of military drills, missile launches, and increasingly aggressive displays of force designed to remind Taiwan of China's power. The carrot is soft diplomacy: business opportunities, cultural exchanges, economic integration, and promises of prosperity under closer ties with the mainland.
The problem is that neither approach has delivered the outcome the Chinese Communist Party wanted. Since the 1990s, the number of people in Taiwan who identify as Chinese has collapsed, while a distinct Taiwanese identity has surged. That leaves Xi Jinping facing an uncomfortable reality. Taiwan won't come willingly, but a military invasion would be enormously costly. So what happens when both the carrot and the stick fail?

- Australian states are pushing ahead with waste-to-energy incineration despite significant opposition. It means one capital city will soon be surrounded by a "ring of fire". Just 40 kilometres north-west of Melbourne, residents in Sunbury have finally had enough of being the city's dumping ground.
When soil contaminated with traces of PFAS was discovered while digging Melbourne's Metro Tunnel it was disposed of here. Now there are plans for a waste-to-energy (WTE) incinerator that will burn 750,000 tonnes of rubbish a year. It will operate 24 hours a day, every day, for the next 30 years. Norman Hermant reports.

- Artificial intelligence is already changing how we live and work, while being sold as the technology that could cure disease, transform productivity and solve some of the world's biggest problems.
Four Corners reporter Steve Cannane investigates the race to build ever more powerful AI systems and asks whether it is moving faster than governments and communities can keep up with.
Filmed in the United States and Australia, the program goes inside the global battle between the world's most powerful technology companies as they spend huge amounts of money building systems some say could one day outperform humans.
Four Corners meets Bay Area tech workers who say AI has already upended their careers, experts who warn of systems that are becoming harder to control, and campaigners fighting the growing power of big tech companies.

- "The field owes him a great debt of gratitude."
Leading melanoma pathologist Professor Richard Scolyer has died aged 59 after a remarkable three-year fight against the 'worst of the worst brain cancers'
After being diagnosed with glioblastoma, the 2024 Australian of the Year became the first person in the world to receive a combination of three immunotherapy drugs before surgery. The treatment strategy, pioneered by his colleague Georgina Long was adapted from her work in melanoma.
It resulted in valuable data that showed how immunotherapy could be used for brain cancer – a cancer that has few advances in treatment for almost two decades.
In this 2023 Australian Story, Professor Scolyer explained why he was willing to put himself forward in order to advanced the outcomes for future brain cancer patients.

- Description
- A fistfight erupts in Taiwan's parliament. Punches fly as two rivals find themselves at the centre of the chaos. On one side is Chen Shui-bian, a member of Taiwan’s progressive DPP who became Taiwan's first president from outside the long-ruling KMT. On the other is Han Kuo-yu, a KMT populist who would eventually become Speaker of the House. But this isn't just another political brawl.
Their careers mirror Taiwan's transformation from authoritarian rule to one of Asia's most vibrant democracies. At the heart of the story is an unresolved question: what is Taiwan? While politicians have spent decades debating the answer, most Taiwanese have embraced the status quo, neither part of China nor formally independent, but something in between.
