Gray rhinos pose serious risks to global governance, and to counter them, the international community must take concerted actions. Yet the lukewarm global economic recovery and some half-hearted cross-border regulations have lulled the world into complacency on financial stability.
Fundamentally speaking, what Trump is truly emphasizing in Asia is - like in every other part of the world - what deals and benefits he can make through exerting pressure and conducting negotiations. One important style of his negotiations is that different issues are mixed, and he prefers negotiating a package rather than talking issue-by-issue.

The tension on the Korean Peninsula was also a major topic during Xi-Trump meeting. The two leaders reiterated their firm commitment to achieving denuclearization on the peninsula and maintaining the international nuclear non-proliferation regime.
Energy is apparently the keyword for Trump`s mission, and the moment couldn`t be better. The US liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry is on the rise as a safe alternative to traditional sources of energy, just as demand from China and Japan is bound to increase.

Since the beginning of last year`s US election campaign, Donald Trump repeatedly emphasized the trade deficit between China and the US. His stance has not wavered, and his administration also launched a Section 301 investigation into China not long ago.
Built on the four elements of geography, energy, trade and currency, Professor Nye’s assertion that `America still holds the aces in its poker game with China’ reads decidedly like 20th-century realist orthodoxy, ill-suited to the conditions obtaining in China during President Trump’s visit from November 8th-10th .
NATO understands it cannot bypass China to meddle in Asia-Pacific affairs, so it has made three demands: China`s no objection is the bottom line; seeking China`s consent and understanding; and if possible, cooperation with Beijing. NATO`s intervention will undoubtedly do more harm than good to China. It increases US influence, internationalizes Asia-Pacific affairs, and encourages some Asian countries to compete for NATO support.
China has entered a new era in building socialism with Chinese characteristics. In the economic arena, the new era means China will be more open and the economy will be more vibrant. The next five years will also see China further open up its financial sector and the changes in the financial system will be unprecedented.
US President Donald Trump starts an official visit to five Asian countries on Friday, one of the most important visits abroad since he took office. Security and trade will be in focus during the trip.
A two-day seminar entitled International Conference on South Asia - China connectivity for Regional Economic Social Development, which was organized by Kathmandu School of Law (KSL), was held in Nepal on October 24-25.
For a long time scholars and pundits have debating whether or not China has a clear grand strategy. Most believe the answer is “No”. Now that has changed.
US President Donald Trump Wednesday congratulated Chinese President Xi Jinping on being re-elected general secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. This set a harmonious tone for Trump`s visit to China in November.
Xi realized that the mission to fight against poverty must be carefully planned to avoid any possible mistakes. That is why he asked the government at all levels to take "targeted efforts" to alleviate poverty. There are so many measures and guidelines to guide the whole society in order to facilitate the process of poverty alleviation.
Many contradictions still remain in India-US relations. Modi won`t satisfy all Trump`s demands in trade and market openness because of his "India First" thought mode and Washington and New Delhi hold different opinions about global climate change and the green economy.
This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Asian financial crisis and the 10th of the start of the global financial crisis. As these anniversaries coincide with the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, it seems an appropriate time to analyze the achievements and trends of China`s economy in the wake of these major crises and of China`s relations with the rest of the world.
The economy has moved into a very critical stage from rapid growth to high quality growth. It`s very difficult to accelerate or to maintain speed. At present, the transformation of the economic structure is moving forward, increasingly met with challenges like unemployment. China must find new engines to power its growth.
Along with its economic prowess, China`s increasingly ambitious, but mutually beneficial, foreign policy is at times misunderstood. Questions have been asked about where the country stands in the global arena and how it balances its role as an emerging power and the world`s largest developing country.
Since 1840, the worldview of Chinese people has undergone four major changes. During the later years of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), intellectuals realized that China had much to learn from the West, particularly in technology. In the early 20th century, China found that it could no longer be self-centered and had to turn to the West for the development needs of the country.
