In the last quarter-century of #globalization, #supplychains became a human marvel that crossed nations and cultures. Now, they are a weapon wielded to divide and conquer. Download the latest @east_asia_forum Quarterly, co-edited by @YapCW Jason Tabarias: https://t.co/oxxDIYfU7m

Great sweep through the global landscape on the trade-offs between sustainability and business in a presentation this afternoon by Law Heng Dean, MD @PollinateEnergy Singapore at our @NatPress-@hinrichfdn Int’l Trade Fellowship.

We kicked off our annual International Trade Fellowship with/@NatPress today with a panel by @Steven_Okun on the impact of the U.S. elections on global trade. Delighted to be working with @annieisi and her great team again.

@ThaiAirways I bought a Thai Airways business class ticket, fully refundable. When I cancelled it, they said they won’t refund it until six months later. Don’t fly Thai Airways.

"Tariffs not only impose immense economic costs but also fail to achieve their primary policy aims and foster political dysfunction along the way."

China-centered globalization isn't about to end. Instead, Beijing is moving to expand its geoeconomic position by doubling down on manufacturing. This isn’t going to go well for global trade diversification. Max Zenglein @merics_eu delves into the empire. https://t.co/3gsmsamgdW

Thank you, @StephenJacobi! I learned a lot from what you had to say on the panel.

[Stephen Jacobi @StephenJacobi]

A great pleasure to speak at the @hinrichfdn event on trade connectivity in Singapore moderated by my friend @YapCW . I spoke about the importance we attach to ambitious trade agreements and the opportunity of the #SouthernLink @TradeWorksNZ

[Chuin Wei Yap @YapCW]

Amazing depiction of undersea cables. If you happen to notice how sparse the area to the bottom left is, that's where the vast expanse of the Pacific remains under-served by connectivity. @StephenJacobi explains what NZ id doing about it.

[1/5] With China accounting for as much as 23% of transnational #dataflows, its stringent data localization rules have sweeping implications for #globaltrade and #innovation. @RebeccaArcesati @GroenLau explain the mechanics of China’s data management: https://t.co/pHF6ROVQBB

[Chuin Wei Yap @YapCW]

A terrific piece by @RebeccaArcesati and @merics_eu that we were pleased and proud to collaborate on.

With my apologies, the correct handle for the Geneva Trade Platform is @genevatrade_gtp

[Chuin Wei Yap @YapCW]

No student should be unable to learn trade law because textbooks are expensive. @GenevaTradeLaw teamed up @henrysgao, @J_A_Hillman, @nicolas_lamp, @JoostPauwelyn to come up with a completely free, comprehensive Trade Law E-Casebook. Check it out:
