'reliable sources'
unable to get comment
I wait for an official release
Remember those 360 leaders met to come up with Time To Win on January 18?
SCMP said the same the day before..
It is future news rather than fake news.

It's my third decade in CX, and if I've heard 'The Chinese are going to buy CX' once over that period, I've heard it a hundred times.
If you predict something long enough I guess it will happen eventually.
Anotherday, they can be surprisingly pragmatic. Bases, lots of dosh, and tax paid for you. And they might do a better job in 'management' than the current shower.
