The data driving Asia

Russian defense minister Sergei Shoigu met with Vietnamese defense minister Phung Quang Thanh in Hanoi on March 5 to discuss strengthening maritime defense ties between their two countries. Following Japanese foreign minister Fumio Kishida’s January visit to Manila, the Philippines announced on February 11 that Japan will be donating ships to the Philippine Coast Guard in an effort to reinvigorate the bilateral security partnership. We look at the Philippines’ and Vietnam’s procurements and strengthening defense ties with their regional neighbors by the numbers:

How Chinese Subsidies Changed the World

2 Comments

    TDH: It is obvious that China exports its products at unreasonably lơw prices on the world market by subsidizing its export firms, unfairly low-balling other countries’ firms around the world. This is typical monopolistic game. And the world obviously deosn’t have enough knowledge and the will to fight back.


How Chinese Subsidies Changed the World

Last week, LDK Solar, a struggling Chinese manufacturer of solar wafers and panels, announced that it had missed $24 million in bond payments. This news followed the bankruptcy in March of Wuxi Suntech, the main operating subsidiary of the world’s largest maker of solar panels, after it defaulted on a $541 million bond payment.

Suspicious?

Leave a comment

https://dotchuoinon.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/mistrust.pngAny of you who have ever read “Romance of the Three Kingdoms” will know that Cao Cao is the most suspicious man in the world. Therefore, we have a saying “Overly suspicious like Cao Cao”. I remember when I was little, I extremely disliked Cao Cao when I read this novel, yet I kept thinking to myself: “Perhaps I should never be as suspicious to the point of cruelty as Cao Cao did, but maybe suspicion is something I should learn more about, otherwise how do I survive in this world?” And this question has followed me for many years as I grow up.

Resourceful

https://i0.wp.com/pandora.bonnint.net/video/widget/4219470.jpgHi everyone,

The word ‘resource’ means a source – source of money, source of materials, source of supports, source of people–basically sources that enrich us, as resources, in plural form, is the sum of properties possessed by a person, a company, or a nation. In daily working life, a resourceful person is someone who knows a lot of sources. Needless to say, this is a very important person for every project, as he/she has the ability to pull different sources of people or materials into the projects. Continue reading Resourceful →

First World pilgrims in suits seek Elixir of Joy in the Himalayas

Ever since the landmark April 2012 United Nations session convened by Bhutan on “Happiness and Well-being: Defining a New Economic Paradigm” attracted 600 participants including presidents, heads of state, economists, Nobel laureates, scholars, NGOs and spiritual leaders to consider Gross National Happiness (GNH) as a holistic extension to Gross National Product (GNP) indicators, Western economists and academics have lost no time clambering aboard the new bandwagon of hope.

Hi everyone,

I often receive questions from you guys like: A friend of mine keeps talking nonsense about things she does not understand, and I want help her improve her understanding, but I’m afraid she might get angry. What should I do? I have a friend who just doesn’t understand the spiritual life you preach, and is suffering because of it. Should I try persuading him again?

Singapore’s Soccer Match-Fixing Scandal

Leave a comment

CSIS
Feb 27th, 2013

Singapore, known for its order, was rocked by Interpol findings that an international soccer match-fixing operation was based there. Though soccer scandals are not new in Southeast Asia, many were surprised that the ring was Singapore-based. Soccer is Southeast Asia’s most popular sport in both viewership and gambling, and we examine the scandal by the numbers.

680 matches

The number of games between 2008 and 2011 that Europol deemed suspicious, including 150 international matches in Africa, Asia, and Latin America; 380 games in Europe, including FIFA World Cup and European championship qualifiers as well as UEFA Champions League games.

Report of the CSIS Asia Team
January 2013

By Michael J. Green, Ernest Z. Bower, Victor Cha, Karl F. Inderfurth, Christopher K. Johnson, and Matthew P. Goodman (Project Director)

AISA PACIFICThe CSIS Asia Team is pleased to announce the release of a new report, “Crafting Asia Economic Strategy in 2013”. Economics is critical to Asia-Pacific affairs and to U.S. interests there. The region accounts for roughly half of global GDP and trade and includes some of the world’s fast-growing economies. Effective U.S. economic policies in the region are thus an essential complement of the Obama administration’s “strategic rebalancing” to Asia, reinforcing and being reinforced by the military, diplomatic, and political elements.

With the help of regional experts who participated in a series of roundtable discussions in the fall of 2012, CSIS prepared this report on a number of key economies of the Asia region: China, India, Japan, Korea, and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). The report is intended to offer practical advice to Obama administration policymakers as they set a strategic course for economic relations with these important countries over the next four years.

Manila Begins Legal Proceedings over South China Sea Claims

Center for International and Strategic Studies

Albert del Rosario, foreign secretary of the PhilippinesOn January 22, the Philippines fired a legal shot across China’s bow with Secretary of State Albert del Rosario’s announcement that Manila had submitted a motion to the United Nations requesting that China’s South China Sea claims be brought before an arbitral tribunal. China has consistently refused to negotiate its claims in the South China Sea, which overlap with those of the Philippines, Malaysia, Brunei, Vietnam, and Taiwan, in multilateral settings. China’s first official reaction to del Rosario’s announcement was unsurprising; it decried the decision and reiterated its “indisputable sovereignty” over the islands and adjacent waters of the South China Sea.

Hi everyone,The holidays are quickly approaching, and while many people are eager to celebrate with their family and friends, others are very lonely. Those are people who just broke up with their lover, people who don’t have a partner to share their life with, people who have just lost or are losing relatives, job, property, honor etc. That is not to mention the homeless who neither have a place to stay nor any family. For whatever reasons, when everybody is happily gathering, there are always people who just feel lonelier than ever. Continue reading Feeling lonely in the holiday season →

ALIGNING U.S. STRUCTURES, PROCESS, AND STRATEGY: A U.S.-ASEAN STRATEGIC AND ECONOMIC PARTNERSHIP

By Ernest Bower, Senior Adviser and Chair for Southeast Asia Studies, CSIS

December 6, 2012

The transition between President Barack Obama’s first and second terms is the right time to develop a U.S.-ASEAN Strategic and Economic Partnership (SEP). The move would serve to elevate and institutionalize existing U.S.-ASEAN engagements. It would also compel U.S. departments and agencies that have been compartmentalized and uncoordinated to raise their levels of engagement, share information, and align government mandates with strategic objectives.

Impermanence and Permanence

Hi everyone,

Very often we feel that we are completely lost, that we don’t know what we should do, what we should use our life for, which direction we should go, which job we should do or learn, how our future will be, or where our future lies.

And we feel lost. Seeing our friends work hard, building their careers, holding good positions… we wish we could be like them, know what we want and what we should do, and be happy with our life plans…

But… Continue reading Impermanence and Permanence →
