China tightens overseas travel rules for citizens
China has tightened rules governing overseas travel by its citizens, according to the BBC. Observers cited in the RSS report said the changes would further increase government control over people's movement. The available material does not specify which travellers are affected, what new requirements apply or when enforcement begins.
Why it matters
Stricter travel controls could affect personal mobility and reinforce state oversight of citizens beyond China's borders.
