Speaking from Hong Kong, South China Morning Post CEO Gary Liu tracks China's response to the coronavirus pandemic — from the initial outbreak in Wuhan to the shutdown of Hubei province and the containment measures taken across its major cities. Sharing insights into how the culture in places like Hong Kong and South Korea contributed to fast action against the virus, Liu identifies lessons people across the world can take to stop its spread. (This virtual conversation is part of the TED Connects series, hosted by head of TED Chris Anderson and current affairs curator Whitney Pennington Rodgers. Recorded March 25, 2020)

DONT LIE ! THAT’S IT LOL
this video is so bs
@Upgrade Yea I didnt even watch 5min of it lol
Christian Rolls I’m sure this is the longest TED video you have watched.
How do you know your government don’t lie to you lol don’t be so naive bro
We learned not to cover up
Under And the result looks stunningly promising
The lesson here is cover it up for months and silence doctors instead of containing it before the entire world is affected. Yeah good job.
@Xaro Xhoan Daxos YES A VALIANT EFFORT THAT CHINA PUT HIM IN JAIL , THEN RELEASED DUE TO FACT, HE POSTED HIS REACTION, N CHINA KEPT COVERING ALL OF IT UP, THEN DOCTOR DIED, CHINA STILL REFUSED TO PLAY BALL….. THIS STARTED IN LATE DECEMBER, IF YOU DONT KNOW THAT, THEN YOURE NOT LOOKING AT FACTS
Daniel Rodrigues ROFL, Jail? Source or just stfu
@kotobaG start here https://youtu.be/mAYIAM3WnKg
Shiro Amada I have this channel, and it entertains me a lot, that’s why I’m talking about fact checking, you need to see the whole pic, but if you only have 1 source and 1side of view, you will be the joke to others.
@Xaro Xhoan Daxos you read too much propaganda, that’s probably why your government failed to act.
This is is CCP propaganda.
liberals angry at facts and calling them propaganda
@omit five we’re about to go go ok hunting
If it is propaganda then he would be making some mistake in giving detailed information
Don’t coverup a pandemic.
Who are trying to coverup? Some US politicians I think
Its interesting to see so mant ted talks in doors
They can learn to NOT HIDE VIRUSES AND NOT KILL DOCTORS WHO WARN AGAINST THEM.
That’s precisely what the video is about…the title of this video should have been “What the world can learn from China’s MISTAKE” but obviously TED fked up the title and now they are getting slammed for it by the people who don’t even bother watching the video.
Did it
@Takahashi Fujihita so TED gave a missleading title and its those mislead by it who are at fault. Got itt.
After all, you were already prepared, with the projects, ordering the equipment, hiring the labor, the water and sewage network, the prefabricated building materials and stocked in an impressive volume.
4. Cause chaos in the world, starting with Europe.
3/n
Then maybe you can learn something from the video and save some lives.
Test! This is the only time tests make sense.
If this headline was changed to “How China messed up, then got their act together with the Covid response” whilst keeping the video the same, it would get a completely different reaction
Sad that it’s almost impossible to change the mind of an average American.
Because they trying to change the image of china. They want our freedom states to be like theirs with all the surveillance and privacy invasions.
No it wouldnt, it would still have people rightly pointing out that this is Chinas fault and they need to be blamed and shamed for it. Only a idiot would think otherwise.
@Sarah Huang so true
YoshiPeach Mario
* CCP Reprimands and silences Dr Wenliang – the whistleblower for COVID-19 – for “spreading rumours” and refusing to immediately act to avoid short-term economic damage, leading to massive economic damages and the deaths of potential thousands globally.
Quite the “mess-up”.
Dont weld citizens in their homes, dont arrest the doctors warning of a pandemic before adressing their concerns, dont censor text photos and videos of the pandemic off the internet, dont harvest political prisoners and ethnic minoraties for organs.
Dont do any of those things and you should be fine.
So how do you combat wahahadi terrorists? same as 9/11
If if that was possible, it wouldn’t fix their terrible and corrupt communist leaders.
@Remy Lebeau Tell me who isnt corrupt, another bailout 10 fold the financial crisis on the backs of the taxpayer, already 3 trillion deficit with Trump.

Whoever stopped the announcement of this virus should be in prison for life, no parole. Absolutely disgusting human behaviour.
So xi should be in
Following your logic, how should we deal with the officials all around the world who, after the alarm has been given by WHO for months, still think this is a flu like thing and allege that it will blow over easily.
the western people did so many 迷之 actions.
So what I learned: the effort needs to be led by health experts, not politicians or government officials. When Zhong Nan Shan spoke up, China started the mitigation.
Sarah Huang the media and politicians always know best, that is why we listen to them on every topic. Let’s not forget Hollywood is a wealth of knowledge should you need a third opinion. If we start listening to experts now, people may expect us to do the same on other topics.
Huh?!
Deleting comments, shame..
Adrian Ionescu and likely up and down votes.
So don’t arrest doctors and hid information. Got it.
Make a ted talk about: what china has done to not hide this information in early stages
wow ……..Ignorance is terrible …i am never think this channel have someone like u .（no independent thinking ability )..3month my dear trump is still try to hide this information still push our go to work and would rather spend 2 or 5 trillion to save the stocks than to spend 400 more ventilators to save us ..what a great government
Yes.China cause the outbreak.
omg u are japanese now i kown why ::::::;toyokawa city ,ahichi prefecture ,japan supported 4.500 masks .to wuxi china. now with the development of the japanese epidemic ,toyokawa has to ask wuxi give back .and next day wuxi send it back 50.000 masks ..it is on march 24 u can check it on news …hehehhe
Have you watched the video? It is literally the first 15 minutes
This video is the result of the ruling class thinking that the ruled are idiots. Feed them anything and they’ll believe it. Absolutely pathetic.
Okay. So how do you explain that the US government kept telling people this is a flu-like disease in the first place even after they’ve seen what happens in Asia and people believe it? Imao this is what you’re referring ‘the ruling class thinking that the rules are idiots’
Google or YouTube “Problem Reaction Solution.” And Keep Calm, or their “solution” will become a much bigger problem.
