More capital flows into Asean amid pandemic and US-China tensions
Singapore

One leading indicator of the supply chain shift lies in China's machinery exports to Asean countries as the region ramps up its production capacity, said Tommy Xie, head of Greater China research at OCBC and one of the panellists at a roundtable discussion focused on China-Asean partnership.
