mccaul: i rise in strong support of congresswoman wagner's southeast asia strategy act. this bill will promote u.s. cooperation with the association of southeast asian nations and establish a comprehensive strategy for engagement in southeast asia. asean is the center of asia's strategic and economic future and critical to the administration's indo pacific strategy. southeast asia has been a critical global crossroads for hundreds of years and it's growing even more important in the 21st century. trillions in trade pass through regional sea lanes including vie vital energy supplies for u.s. allies and adversaries. china's territorial aggressive in the south china sea are central to the region's geopolitics. southeast asia's rise commissions are becoming important drivers of regional growth as its developed economies begin to slow. industry, this act is a industry, this act is a welcome step to ensure this critical region receives the interagency focus it deserves and requires. therefore i urge my colleagues to support this measure and i reserve the balance of my time. the

haslinda: there has a lot of talk about how southeast asia will benefit. that be enough to compensate for the slow down? asia is considered one of the areas, along with india, that should benefit in the medium-term for the diversification out of the crosshair of tariffs between the u.s. and china. it is a place for diversification for slowing grow. this structural trend has to be supported by policy and the two countries that have supported policy are very clearly thailand and vietnam. the data shows that thailand numbers have been rising. the vietnam side has labor-intensive policy, liberalized trade policy. been going ons -- 2011-2012ly when it tried to move out of the banking sector prices. he was talking to us about how sri lanka is benefiting from the trade war. when you look at the tariffs, i was just looking at where we are. yuan,ginning of 2018, the 14% depreciation. that is covering up a multitude of these -- >> yes or no. because china has a trade surplus, the imports are rising. rishaad: the imports are very value-added. smartphones, et cetera.

talk to us through your ai strategy. >> it is very specific to problems with southeast asia. let me be specific. it is a big problem in southeast .sia with ai, they have been able to reduce that to less than 1% and with other things like safety and business, also providing airter financial services, has powered a lot of what you have seen and don't. about $100mounted to 12.ion over the last to increase it going forward. no other company has invested so much in ai. see that,, when can you see that investment? >> it will be over the next 12. >> where -- over the next 12 months. >> where world the money go? [inaudible] when we are thinking about investment in ai, we are thinking about moving from ai power to ai everywhere. .t is very important technology want the power and skill to use, but whether it is -- so they can understand how it can be used to spot customer problems. into airther investing technology that is relevant. for example, they many different things just have seen in southeast asia from singapore, 50 different linkages and dialects. safety,hat, fraud, really impor

we want to make our own assessment so we head off for southeast asia. thailand is the world's biggest producer of natural rubber. more than $4000000.00 tons of it are harvested on its plantations each year over the last 30 years production here is grown by 300 percent. bangkok is the center of the rubber trade. we're meeting journalist to be into a car took it was written extensively about the industry. even from the car it's clear what a big role the tire industry plays in thailand. after all it's not just natural rubber that is produced year but many tires are to. their then shipped around the world in containers but it's not easy to get a glimpse inside the business here. well as. industry. play the. role of tool tyco to me so. i think the people in this industry might want to keep some secret with them states quite a bit difficult to get information from from them. our 1st stop is in col kamaal district southeast of bangkok. large amounts of rubber are growing here. thanks to these contacts we gain access to one of the plantations. the owner inherit

united states should consider protecting exclusive even harvick Ãband improve the posture in southeast asiaht now we are optimized for conflicts in northeast asia and southeast asia and will take a great deal of political will to be able to have assets in southeast asia. i think that's what's really needed at this time. understandably states don't really leaders are worried about doing this because they want to avoid a war with european competitor but in my view the only way to prevent a war is to deter chinese aggression if china doubts the united states for ability to prevail then they are more likely to rely on coercion and aggression and this is what will drag our two countries into work. because of this i think united states think needs to put all military resources behind maintaining regional order even if this means taking a few risks to ensure success. >> given my background and expertise i will focus my remarks on the military aspects of the relationship. in particular, look at three issues, first the military balance of the indo pacific. the open-ended long-term military competiti

rage in hong kong and its implications have far reaching effects touching not only china but southeast asia as a whole boom bust christiane is on the ground in singapore and she tells us but the stress of the protests has begun to spill over. the riots in hong kong have been going on since march and despite kerry lem's concession to formally withdraw the extradition bill 7 the unrest continues this prolonged destruction has already caused. a spillover impact on to singapore and the broader southeast asian region the lion city has certainly capitalized on hong kong situation as many businesses have relocated conferences and other major meetings to singapore and while tourism to hong kong dropped to 40 percent this summer to a record low last seen during the sars outbreak singapore reported record high hotel occupancy 93.8 percent with room rates also at the highest since 2005 as mainland are now opting to holiday here in singapore it seems that singapore is benefiting quite a lot from hong kong's fall out as both these destinations share similar traits it captures now the leisure consumer ma

chinese economy and is there any sign of progress in the regional fight against swine fever across southeast asia. well those are a number of questions 1st of all the consumer price index in china used to be a lot more closely tied to pork it was about 10 percent of the consumer price index it is now down to about 2 percent so sometimes pork goes 1st sometimes the consumer price index goes 1st so although they are tied they're not as tightly linked as they used to be that gives china a little bit of leeway this weekend is one of chinese china's great festivals as they're made autumn festival and traditionally every family in china is going to eat meat and when chinese say eating meat that means eating pork and that is why china has found it necessary to release you know millions of tons of pork from their reserve how much reserve they have is of course a state secret no but nobody really knows but that's what's going on right now is that they're releasing some of the reserve particularly in guangzhou out so that people can have their pork this weekend and they can have their mooncake festival as

said that, there is a long way to go, what impact are we seeing on economies where you are in southeast asias been a really big impact in economies across the region, you know, time and again, i have reported for you on the drop—off in exports for export —dependent countries like singapore, for instance, which last month saw a 17% fall in exports, understood by the fact that many companies based here, indonesia, vietnam, etc, they make things in china and sell them off to the united states. a lot of those products are now facing tariffs because of what president trump is put into effect over the la st trump is put into effect over the last 18 months. having said that, some countries have benefited, as supply chains have shifted out of china, into parts of southeast asia. overall, what has happened, there has been major uncertainty for companies, that means they are not making decisions on hiring new people, or, building new factories, all that leads to a slowdown in economic growth, that is why you are seeing growth forecasts slowing down notjust around seeing growth forecasts slowing down n
