Seven of Australia’s top 10 trading partners are in Asia, with trading relations driven by a growing proportion of cross-border investment and people movement between Asian nations and Australia. The ability of all nations to turbocharge economic recovery post Covid-19 will depend on building trading and investment links between nations stronger than they have ever been before.  But, in the wake of increasing geo-political strain between super powers and intense competition for strategic advantage between nations, the fragility of links between seemingly strong partners has been exposed prompting the need to renew and refresh trading relationships. My guest today is Mukund Narayana Murti, CEO of AsiaLink Business, which has just released a landmark report on how Australia can respond to the challenges ahead and win in Asia. He is daring Australian business leaders, policymakers and investors to get coordinated and get active post pandemic and move into a new era of inter-regional trade. He says close Australia-Asia relations at a corporate level are just as critical as relations between Governments. What are the challenges ahead for Australia in Asia and what will it take to win?
