Andrew's October 2023 Newsletter

(My quarterly Newsletters go out to some 8,000 professional contacts worldwide. The following is my October 2023 issue. Back numbers may be accessed under What is New on my website.)

Greetings!
 
The muddled contest for shaping the World Order is accelerating. In face of a seemingly endless proxy war of attrition in Ukraine and quickening 2024 U.S. election challenges, President Biden is walking a tightrope balancing a no-holds-barred China-containment campaign with America's best economic interests.
 
Meanwhile, the "Global South" tectonic plates are shifting, typified by recent Arab Peninsula rapprochements brokered by China and droves of  developing nations wanting to join the BRICS group. However, grappling with multiple headwinds both domestic and international, China is not yet out of the woods, notwithstanding signs of resilience belying much of anti-China doomsday rhetoric. 
 
Hopefully, the following may throw up some useful perspectives in navigating through an increasingly complex and treacherous world!

(My quarterly Newsletters go out to some 8,000 professional contacts worldwide. The following is my July 2023 issue. Back numbers may be accessed under What is New on my website.)

Greetings!
 
The protracted Ukraine war drags on regardless of recent Wagner Group shenanigans. Meanwhile, the world order remains in an epochal flux defined by intensifying US-China rivalry on all fronts. Countries in Europe, Asia, Middle East, and the rest of the developing world are adjusting their gaits as best they could. In all theatres, China has been in diplomatic overdrive. To make sense of what is happening around the world, a much better understanding of where China is coming from becomes even more critical. Hopefully the following may offer some fresh perspectives.

I have added a new entry "A Flash of Inspiration" and some other translations to a repertoire of inspirational music, videos, songs and words.

"Uniting the West, America alienates the rest" - The Economist

In How to survive a superpower split ", The Economist (11 April 2023) outlines a changed contour of the world order, with 127 countries refusing to follow America's hymnbook on the Ukraine War (against 52 countries who do).

These 127 countries include 25 fairly large or wealthy economies (which The Economist terms T25 (T for "transactional"), such as India, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Brazil, Turkey, Indonesia, and Egypt. They represent 45% of the world’s population and 18% of global GDP., more than the European Union's.

Some 43% of the T25 merchandise trade is with the Western bloc, 19% with the China-Russia bloc and 30% with countries in neither of those camps. However, this hides the fact that China has become the largest single trading partner to almost all of these countries.

These 127 "non-aligned" countries are in the so-called "Global South". They see through the West's hypocrisy, exemplified by the $170bn in aid pledged to Ukraine in the first year of the war, equivalent to 90% of spending on all global aid in 2021 by OECD donors.

All goes to show that rhetoric aside, the world order is no longer US-led, let alone dictated by the so-called G7 advanced economies, which, US aside, consists of "middling powers". The reality is that the world order has become much more multipolar, and significantly shifting towards a closer geo-economic relationship with China. .

Andrew's April 2023 Newsletter

(My quarterly Newsletters go out to some 8,000 professional contacts worldwide. The following is my April 2023 issue. Back numbers may be accessed under What is New on my website.)

Greetings!
 
From Europe to the Middle East, the world's geopolitical tectonic plates are shifting fast.  Uncertain outcomes are confronting the Great Powers. America and its European allies remain united against a revanchist Russia. However, they appear anxious, if not paranoiac, about a rapidly rising, and sure-footed China, suddenly emerging from three years of pandemic lockdown to demonstrate its growing global gravitas. Meanwhile, a prolonged continental-scale proxy war over Ukraine has resulted in persistent inflation, repeated interest-rate hikes, social unrest, and an apparently contagious banking crisis.

Much of the West's mishaps and misguided actions reflects an unspoken denial.  Unable to call all the shots, the West's absolute dominance over the world order no longer endures. While the art of peaceful, inclusive co-existence (or "harmony despite differences" according to ancient Chinese philosophy), has yet to be learnt, the world is becoming a more dangerous place. The supply of "depleted uranium shells" to Ukraine may risk bating a heavily-nuclear-armed Russia in a downward spiral towards nuclear Armageddon.  

The following may offer fresh perspectives on some of the world's most critical flashpoints.
