Show Notes
Synopsis: Every fourth Friday of the month, The Straits Times' US bureau chief Nirmal Ghosh presents Asian views of the United States.
The United States' Indo Pacific Economic Framework (IPEF) has been welcomed in much of the region - though with some wariness over the geopolitical agenda given that China is by far, every South-east Asian country's largest trading partner.
In this episode, Nirmal Ghosh hosts Dr. Pavida Pananond, Professor of International Business at Thammasat Business School, Thammasat University, in Bangkok, alongside Tan Dawn Wei, The Straits Times' Beijing-based China bureau chief.
Highlights (click/tap above):
3:30 South-east Asian concerns over trade and supply chain pillars; how countries view resilience
5:54 Not all countries look at “friend shoring” the same way the US does
6:49 China firmly entrenched in region but taking anything for granted and why it's not too concerned the US' IPEF will dislodge that
9:42 Chinese concern about US "friend shoring", decoupling and accelerating self-sufficiency
13:47 Why South-east Asia still depends on external markets; IPEF is a late entrant in the theatre
