WHY ASIA PACIFIC
“Over the past three decades, the Asia Pacific region has grown significantly based on strong fundamentals, including expanding consumer markets and a maturing manufacturing base that attracts foreign investment. These factors enabled the region to triple its share of world Gross Domestic Product (GDP) to almost 40 per cent since 1960, with per capita income also rising sharply, leading to the creation of a new middle class and a large domestic consumer base. The percentage of the population living in extreme poverty has steadily declined and, coupled with great improvements in healthcare and education, average life expectancy and education levels have grown. Technology and globalisation have played critical roles in this rapid growth, resulting in Asia Pacific now accounting for more than one third of global merchandise trade.” PWC, Asia Pacific's Time, November 2020
