SYNOPSIS
The worst wave of the pandemic has just passed for most of the region. With vaccinations picking up pace, there are talks of shifting away from a “zero-COVID” target to adopting an “endemic” approach, where businesses resume operations and life can return to some semblance of normalcy. This webinar will discuss where the region is at in terms of the pandemic and will also feature the SIIA’s new report titled “ASEAN: From Crisis Mode to Endemic Approach”, which examines the economic and political situation facing five key economies.
Speakers:
Dr. Steve Cochrane, Chief APAC Economist, Moody’s Analytics
Ms. Lee Chen Chen, Associate Director and Senior Fellow, Singapore Institute of International Affairs
Associate Professor Simon Tay, Chairman, Singapore Institute of International Affairs
