Asia-Pacific is the engine of the global economy and the main arena of US-China competition – the source of the world’s chips, the buyer of its commodities, and the swing factor in every supply chain.

From China and India to Japan, Korea and Southeast Asia, this hub gathers our daily Asia-Pacific coverage and connects it to the wider Global South story.
