Thank you Professor Goldstein for yet another segment on China with a measured and level headed community you've fostered throughout the years.
Looking forward to the nex, from the other side of the world

Thank you very much for the presentation and adding greatly to my knowledge of the history of Asian land and Maritime trade and also Naval traditions. I'm not finished watching the presentation, but I hope you mentioned something about the Chinese Fleet in I believe the 1400s that reached South Africa at the same time the Portuguese were coming around the western coast of Africa
