The Division of Public Policy (PPOL), in collaboration with HKUST Li & Fung Supply Chain Institute, host a talk-and-dialogue session entitled "Productivity Boost or Beggar-thy-Neighbour: Are shifts in Chinese supply chains benefitting or squeezing Southeast Asia?", featuring Manu Bhaskaran, CEO of Centennial Asia Advisors.

This talk explores whether the influx of Chinese investments represents a productivity boost for Southeast Asian economies or a beggar-thy-neighbour risk that limits their development. How are Southeast Asian economies balancing the benefits of high-tech industrial clustering with the squeeze on domestic manufacturers due to cheap Chinese goods? How should the region strive to progress from being transshipment tariff shelters into dynamic industrial engines in their own right?
