by Scott Richardson is an American Christian Missionary in China. He talks about the social credit system and how the CPC considers good behaviour, as well as peace and harmony, to be more important than freedom, and this is because of China's troubled history and its terrible famines. He says how Western people have no idea of how terrible these famines were. They do paint the Social Credit System to bit severe, and I've read many times that it's nothing like this. Anyway, it's a very interesting discussion about China. Both the host, Lee Witting, and Scott Richardson are very Christian, but they are not too hard on the CPC, in fact, they think the CPC is running country very well and that China will be the leader of the World fairly soon. They both really like China. This interview is

This interview is kind of unbiased in a way, because it's really about near death experiences in China. The Lee Witting and Scott Anderson do have a bit of a fear of the government, as the CPC prefers its party members to be athiests, but they say the government is slowly changing its position on religion.
It's a fascinating interview.
This week's guest, Scott Richardson, has been assisting a PhD neuroscientist in China, Shan Liang, to create a website in Chinese for those in China interested in learning about Near-Death Experiences.

China's great famine: 40 years later
Forty years ago China was in the middle of the world's largest famine: between the spring of 1959 and the end of 1961 some 30 million Chinese starved to death and about the same number of births were lost or postponed.
