About this episode

We welcome Ethan Wu, Asia business and finance editor at The Economist, to Kopi Time. We cover Asia’s remarkably strong exports cycle, regional resilience to this year’s energy shock, issues related to trade, tech, and national security, frictions with the US, China over-capacity, direction of RMB, and global rebalancing needs. Ethan is very well-versed in regional issues; this conversation highlights his astute insights. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
