During the last meeting in Beijing, one of the local attendees gave

of information taken together suggest that local attendees are
probably vetted very carefully and that will limit the pool.
It's the practice at my location for a security guard to vet local
visitors before allowing them access to a hotel. It might seem odd
as, in a few countries, a local visitor can walk to the reception
desk without being vetted.
