Indo-Pacific Insight aims to bring to light elements of the ‘small picture’, those detail layers of the broad Indo-Pacific, Southeast Asian, and Asia-Pacific geopolitical landscapes that tend to be assumed knowledge within the bigger picture, but which often provide useful, granular information.
Think: investment in rail, road and transport networks which contribute to both country-to-country ties – and obligations – and which also underpin economic and therefore strategic decision-making into the future. Clearly, this impacts on supply chains, payments, currency exchange, business ownership, data ownership, messaging and more.
technology / trade / risks / supply / geopolitics
We do this by gathering news coverage, reports, articles, commentary and research which focuses on the component parts of the larger Indo-Pacific narratives: coverage of items including trade, payments, investment, legislation, emerging risks and defense, alongside awareness of criminality.
By focusing on this ‘small picture’, we add important granular detail, and meaningful context, to the far larger, broader conversations around, for instance, the US-China tech war.
