Gobi Partners: Raising Fund II

Questions
As an institutional LP, why would you back Gobi? Why not? Why are there pan Asian funds?
Is there more risk? What sort of risk? in a China only fund

If you were a Gobi partner, what would your planning horizon and the fund size target be?
When would you expect to close? What are the keys to raising the second fund? How large should it be?

Does Gobis strategy make sense in such a young venture capital market in China?
