Asia correspondent Ed White

Asia correspondent Ed White discusses US soldier Travis King, who fled mysteriously across the demilitarised zone separating South and North Korea, as North Korean media finally comment on it. And three years after being detained in China, Australian journalist Cheng Lei has managed to get a message out from a Beijing jail. And worryingly there is a case of disappearing data in China as Beijing stops reporting key information including youth unemployment and Covid-19 death rates. Ed White is a correspondent with the Financial Times.
