When we discuss the "trade war", we usually discuss what it means for us and for China. The article below sheds some light on other Asian countries affected by it.

A good article, Gunter.  I would say, however, that while it is easy to picture Trump as a bully, it seems that all he is asking for are some much needed changes to a more fair trading relationship with China.

One thing is obvious - when it comes to many, if not most, of the world's economies, the US is the one indispensable nation.  There is no one else the other countries can pivot to.

Makes me wonder - how long before Trump makes it look inviting to invest in India?
