Further to the CPC Congress announcements on reforms for foreign investment in China’s domestic markets, Beijing has issued an expansion of the ‘Encouraged Industry’ Catalogue which includes Hi-Tech, Green, Healthcare, Elder Care, Sports and Vocational Training Sectors. We pay particular attention to China’s emerging Esports sector.

In ASEAN, we look into the Philippines expanded foreign investment catalogue, and look at potential in Vietnam’s pre-school sector as well as Indonesia and Thailand’s mutual QR code linkage. We look at India’s growing healthcare industry and its emerging second and third tier cities and how to assess their market potential, while in the Middle-East, Turkiye has just had record exports. We discuss why and how Turkiye is becoming an export manufacturing hot spot. Finally we look at the Belt & Road Initiative and provide our usual weekly roundup.
