Is the Association of Southeast Asian Nations resilient enough to thrive amid the regional and global transformations taking place today? While the global economy continues its broad-based expansion, disruptive economic, geostrategic and technological forces may threaten ASEAN’s gains of recent years. To survive, ASEAN members must make important decisions about the role of their community in regional affairs. With the right choices, the region can convert disruption into an opportunity for a r

SK Innovation, a South Korean refinery and energy company, is increasing its presence in the global market for electric vehicle batteries, raising expectations it could soon catch up with leading EV makers, according to a market researcher on Thursday.

[Mac Margolis] Politics cost Brazil its national museum

We don’t yet know what set off the fire Sunday night that reduced Rio de Janeiro’s National Museum to a charred shell. Firefighters were still combing the ruins on Tuesday for clues to the blaze. Brazil’s social media mobs weren’t waiting for the forensics. Factions blamed their favorite villains: ruthless bean counters, corrupt populists or the enemy du jour, hapless lame duck President Michel Temer.The finger-pointing did not begin with the fire. It was merely an accelerant to the political co
[Daniel Moss] Skipping Asia summits, at least Trump will do no harm
Viewpoints
Sept 6, 2018
Donald Trump’s absence from Asia-Pacific summits will do little harm to America’s long-term standing in the region. It might even help. The president’s decision to skip two international meetings in November was predictably seen as evidence of American neglect of a vital region, underscoring the unilateralist instincts of Trump. The complaints are fair. But let’s not mistake pageantry for trends that have been building for years and look inevitable. American influence is waning in ways that a fe

LONDON -- Samsung Electronics will become a leader in the field of artificial intelligence by differentiating itself from other AI players with human-centric communication that will help devices understand users’ emotions better, said professor Maja Pantic, who is affiliated with a UK-based AI center for Samsung, on Tuesday. “Samsung’s devices will ceaselessly communicate with users and learn from them through the screen, voice, vision and tactile features,” said Pantic during a press conference
[Shira Ovide] Amazon at $1 trillion is more dream than reality

The stock market is a weighing machine of companies’ potential rather than their current circumstances. That is doubly true for Amazon. Amazon on Tuesday briefly reached a stock market value of $1 trillion. It’s a meaningless (and unoriginal) milestone but a notable symbol for a company that until recently hardly looked like a world-shaking giant. Amazon’s market cap is six times what it was at this point in 2014, or a gain of $840 billion. It took Google 14 years to reach that stock market valu
