Agriculture and agribusiness still represent a crucial slice of most ASEAN member countries’ GDP. However, the sector is changing, increasingly leaving behind traditional, labour-intensive production and transformation processes in favour of more advanced and highly technological practices. And it is looking for partners.

[IT] Questa 51a edizione del SIPRI Yearbook testimonia il continuo deterioramento delle condizioni di stabilità internazionale. Questo trend si riflette nel continuo aumento della spesa militare e nel valore stimato dei trasferimenti di armi a livello globale. La crisi del controllo delle armi è diventata cronica e sempre più tossica per la geopolitica mondiale e le rivalità regionali. Rimane ancora alto il numero di conflitti armati in tutto il mondo, con pochi segni di soluzioni negoziate all’orizzonte.
In their book, Eugenio Cusumano (Leiden University) and Stefano Ruzza (T.wai & University of Turin) draw a compared analysis of the extensive use of Private Military and Security Companies on merchant ships and its consequences.
How the world will look in future is a topic of interest for all of us, whether we want to make smart investment choices, prepare for the unexpected or create art. We understand that the future is shaped by our choices and by the trends and forces that are set in motion today. These are the driving forces. Some driving forces have greater impact, affecting all levels of society and causing substantial changes, while with some others there is a high level of uncertainty as to what their impact and their future relevance may be.

A larger population and increased purchasing power have led to substantial growth in global demand for food in recent decades. While the contribution of agriculture to world GDP has, with very few exceptions (i.e., Ethiopia and Argentina), seen a constant decline, agrifood production has increased significantly since the end of World War II, and it is expected to double by 2050.1 More efficient farm structures, technological innovations and better inputs are among the major contributors to this global miracle.
[IT] La Malaysia è ormai un hub manifatturiero con eccellenze in settori ad alto contenuto tecnologico e si appresta a entrare tra i paesi ad alto reddito. Nel 2019 Banca Mondiale l’ha collocata in quindicesima posizione nella propria classifica Doing Business per la capacità dimostrata nell’agevolare l’attività economica. Riflesso di un notevole insieme di fattori, tale capacità ha spinto l’Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) a prevedere che Kuala Lumpur possa giocarsi le proprie carte nella competizione per attrarre le multinazionali alla ricerca di un’alternativa a Hong Kong.
