Hello everybody, this is your host Edgar Choi from “Law In A Minute”. I am pleased to announce that this brand-name has gained tremendous popularity over the past 3 years. To-date, with over 15,000 subscribers on my WeChat blogs, most of my previous works, mainly articles, are in written form. Now, in order to create a more intellectually diverse platform, I have decided to add video content. The aim here is to serve a broader scope of preferred learning styles in order to inform more people about Chinese law. So, climb aboard as I help navigate you through the vast, uncharted waters of Chinese law.

Please subscribe for more interesting legal facts!

Through watching my video series, you will learn, step-by-step, how to invest in China, trade with China, work in China and live in China. These topics represent the actually real questions asked by expats, overseas investors and traders who’ve had business dealings with China.
