She realized stories on China that let the viewer look behind the facade of the Shanghai skyline. In 2008, CNN honored her for a report on dispossessed farmers and named Barbara L\u00fcthi Journalist of the Year in the German-speaking world.<\/p>\n<p>After a language study trip to Sydney, the Zurich native began her career with her own talk show on the private station Star TV. She then moved to TV3 as a video journalist. From 2001, Barbara L\u00fcthi worked for the political and business magazine &#8220;Rundschau&#8221;. In 2005, she won the &#8220;CNN Journalist Award&#8221; for the report &#8220;Toy Factory&#8221; about working conditions in Chinese toy factories. She currently hosts the magazine &#8220;Der Club&#8221; on Swiss television.<\/p>\n<p>With her profound first-hand knowledge, Barbara L\u00fcthi is a much sought-after speaker at events and seminars. With an unbiased view and many years of experience, Barbara L\u00fcthi describes in her exciting lectures how politics, economics, war and social life in foreign cultures go hand in hand.<\/p>\n<h2>Barbara L\u00fcthi lecture topics:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>CHINA &#8211; Between awakening and censorship authority<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>China is an economic world power and a book with seven seals for many. We have already become accustomed to some areas of globalization. China is an economic world power and a book with seven seals for many. In her lecture Barbara L\u00fcthi presents backgrounds for the economic successes and at the same time enormous social and environmental problems, establishes connections and reports on the everyday life in Chinese reality.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The Old Burma Road: Road of Globalization<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In the past, traders, soldiers and smugglers used the Old Burma Road. Today, the World War II supply route again plays an important geopolitical role for China, Myanmar and India. Especially at the border between China and Burma, one can see the new importance of this old route&#8230;. For China, Burma provides access to raw materials and the sea. Already today, a pipeline bringing Burmese oil to Kumning runs directly along the &#8220;Burma Road&#8221;. Much comes across the border illegally in the other direction &#8211; jade, tropical timber and opium. Once the small border crossing between China and Myanmar becomes a multi-lane highway, China&#8217;s southernmost province will be connected to the oil rigs and ports on the Bay of Bengal and at the gates of rival India. With Myanma opening, the missing piece of the puzzle is back in place and Asia is recalling its old trade routes. No one can afford to ignore Asia.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Guan Xi &#8211; Networking in Chinese<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>What is the significance of cooperation, alliances and networks in Chinese culture and economy? How do they manifest and prove themselves in everyday life? What could we possibly learn from them and transfer to our circumstances?
