HEADLINES: Curated by Chris Devonshire-Ellis The big news at present is the Chinese Communist Party Congress, currently taking place in Beijing, we give truly expert contextual analysis from people very close to President Xi and the CPC. Russian President Putin was also busy at the CIS and Central Asia heads of state meetings, the two events overlap in terms of geopolitics in many ways: regional analysts should take note. Back to business, we have a complimentary China Tax & Accounting Guide for 2022-23 for you to download – in time for audit preparation season, while in ASEAN we outline regulations in Cambodia concerning foreign worker permits and look at Vietnam’s footwear industry – attracting investment and relocations from China. In India we have detailed examinations of the semi-conductor and consumables industries. Elsewhere, we have a look at what would be China and Russia’s largest joint BRI project, a US$9.5 million JV, and provide our usual Belt and Road investor roundup. |
