This Week in Asia Episode 13: The Google Showdown with China

TWiA-logo Gen Kanai, Director of Asia Business Development from Mozilla Corporation joins the TWIA crew as our guest to discuss the Google Showdown with the China government on unfiltered search & censorship and examine the implications of foreign companies entering into the Chinese market. We continue to discuss the recent Yahoo!
