新闻纵贯线 Today updated 20:00 2017/04/20

《今日》全国首秀第一天，天宫号升空助威！

Welcome to 'Today' - an hour of world news and analysis -- from a different perspective. I'm Su Yi.

Coming up:

-- Tax reductions for Chinese companies; who may benefit? And will that be a shot in the arm enough to enhance industrial upgrading and innovation, and improve market performance?

-- China sends a cargoship to the outer space: what's the mandate¹ and what does Tianzhou One mean to the country's future space station?

-- Want to migrate to Australia? Camberra now says: "commitment to our values, allegiance to our country, competent English, being here for four years, integration,"

-- Do you feel qualified²? And, are you willing?

For more on this, CRI's Suyi is now joined on the line by Mike Bastin, Senior Lecturer at Southampton Solent University, and Visiting Professor at the University of International Business and Economics; Dr. Allan Patience, Principal Fellow of the Asia Institute, the University of Melbourne
