NOT JUST ANOTHER APP DEALManus lands in an awkward place. It is a consumer app from a firm already re-domiciled to Singapore. On paper, there is limited scope for a narrow national security case against the sale.Yet the commerce ministry is both the gatekeeper for trade and export controls and China’s main representative in trade talks with the United States.
