Taiwan sent its own forces to keep watch, the ministry said, using its usual wording for when China carries out such activities. China’s defense ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment on whether the latest combat patrol was related to Lai visiting Kinmen.

When you think of advocating for yourself in the workplace, you probably imagine asking for a promotion. Part of self-advocacy, though, is learning how to say "no" to tasks you don't have the bandwidth for.

"In the process of always saying yes, we sacrifice our time and take on work that does not really help us," she writes. In her book, she offers up a formula that can help you turn down work in a way that doesn't ruin your workplace relationships.

I've always admired people to whom speaking up during meetings comes naturally. "Finding the right words to say in front of others can be one of the most frustrating games we play in our own head," she writes. Chen, now the CEO of communications training agency SoulCast, offers up a strategy for contributing during meetings in an impactful way. Called the "A4 Sequence," it's a series of actions that can help you chime in at the right time with the right information. "Speaking at meetings is about being pointed and succinct," she writes.

One you can do right away: Create a "Yay Folder."

Assessments of China based on cherry-picked phrases from party propaganda overlook the frequent gap between rhetoric and reality. Leading Chinese intellectuals openly acknowledge the difficulty of reconciling what China says with what it does. “Even we don’t believe much of what we say,” the Chinese economist Yao Yang, who is known for his pragmatic views, has said. But it is presently far from clear that it can — or even seeks to — replace the United States as the world’s dominant power. apparently see the United States as trying to keep China perpetually subordinate and vulnerable, opposing whatever China does or advocates in an international system that Beijing believes favors the United States and developed democracies.
