Ong Tee Keat: Covid19 Outbreak --- A Test to Global Governance
On March 11th, 2020, Robert Redfield, the director of US Center for Disease Control &Prevention (CDC), dropped a proverbial bombshell when he testified to the US Congress admitting that numerous virus deaths might have been miscategorized as flu. This belated admission of misdiagnosis has further lent credence to the earlier speculation that many pulmonary fibrosis cases, which resulted in deaths due to patients' inability to breathe, might in fact have been caused by coronavirus.

The pandemic has a clear global course.

Wang Yiwei: China’s anti-virus aid out of goodwill, responsibility, not atonement
China's behavior throughout the outbreak has demonstrated that it takes its international responsibilities seriously, as is commensurate with its status and with Chinese traditions. It is in no way some kind of "atonement" for some "crime" which the country has never committed.

Wang Wen: COVID-19 blunders signal end of ‘American Century’
For most people it's unfathomable that the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic is the first global event that hasn't been led by the US since 1941. In 1941, the US was a leader in the worldwide antifascist war. During this current global fight against an invisible enemy, the US is hardly able to protect itself. The US should have been much better prepared for the outbreak considering the coronavirus came to its shores after it had rampaged through China, Japan, South Korea, Iran, Italy, France, Germany and Britain.

William Jones: G20 Teleconference Creates New Opportunities
The Chinese word for “crisis” is composed of two characters that respectively signify “danger” and “opportunity.” The coronavirus pandemic has indeed alerted the world to the “danger” lurking amongst us. But the G20 Extraordinary Leaders’ Summit on COVID-19 of March 26 represented a real "opportunity” to advance a coordinated global response to the outbreak, and to create also a new paradigm for humankind to overcome the drawbacks and dangers implied by the prevailing geopolitical status quo.

John Ross: US policy on China won’t changeTrump's anti-China coronavirus rhetoric will cost many lives
US President Donald Trump has launched xenophobic attacks on China over COVID-19 with only one purpose – to attempt to divert attention from his failure to prepare the US for the inevitable spread of the coronavirus. But this anti-China rhetoric will have serious consequences for the American people, leading to many lost lives. Trump’s attack on China is a futile attempt to head off what will be the inevitable verdict of history on a disaster for the American people. If continued, it will cost many American lives.

Wang Wen: Trump govt’s three big lies hurt Americans
The Trump administration's policies remain more focused on saving the stock market than people's lives. If the number of infected cases continues to increase and the death toll keeps rising, it won't matter how much money the government injects, and investors' confidence in the US stock market will not return. Even a child can understand this.

William Jones: Trump's blame game could put American lives at risk
Anyone who has watched Trump's daily briefings with the White House coronavirus task force he set up, can clearly see that the U.S. views this more and more as a zero-sum game with China, which through diligent efforts and the nation coming together, had succeeded in getting to a point where there are no, or very few, new incidents of the virus.
