International policy analyst Dewardric McNeal discusses the balance between public health and economic growth. Also in China, the CCP is facing a political reshuffle as its 20th national congress approaches; CNBC’s Eunice Yoon offers some insight on how domestic politics are affecting international influences–like ‘Minions’--in China.
