The Economic Outlook in Southeast Asia
The impact of widening economic disparities on the security of Southeast Asia should not be underestimated. Today, we provide materials that outline the challenge posed by the region’s uneven development and consider the prospects for more equitable forms of economic growth in the future.
Economic disparities and a widening development gap present a number of challenges for the long-term security and stability of Southeast Asia. In the following podcast, the OECD’s Mario Pezzini and the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace’s Uri Dadush elaborate on the findings of “Southeast Asian Economic Outlook: with Perspectives on China and India (SAEO).” This annual OECD publication not only seeks to promote a greater understanding of the economic challenges facing Southeast Asia, it also offers recommendations aimed at ultimately strengthening the region’s economic policies.
