Biography
Hello! I am an associate professor of political economy in the Department of Public and International Affairs at City University of Hong Kong. My research focuses on China’s railway and infrastructure development, its transnational rail freight project, as well as China's international development cooperation in Kazakhstan, Mongolia, and Thailand. I earned my PhD in political science from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. I have published articles in various academic journals, including the China Journal, China Quarterly, Third World Quarterly, and Competition and Change. My book, titled Explaining China’s Railway Reform: A Train of Property Rights Re-arrangements, was published by Routledge.
