Episode 6: India and the Osaka Declaration

9 July, 2019

At the recent G20 meeting in Osaka, India was one of three countries that did not endorse a global framework on digital trade rules known as the ‘Osaka Declaration on Digital Economy’. We speak to ISAS Senior Research Fellow Dr Amitendu Palit in this episode on why India continues to stay out of any commitment on global e-commerce rules and the implications this may have on the South Asian giant.

Episode 4: Changing The Batting Order in Pakistan

25 April, 2019

With as many as eight changes made in a sudden Cabinet reshuffle last week, Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan has not only thrown a curve ball at us all but he has also signalled that he is willing to change his team to ensure that his country’s economic prospects, and an impending bailout deal with the IMF, cross the boundary line. With loads of cricketing clichés thrown in for good measure, ISAS Visiting Research Associate Professor Iqbal Singh Sevea analyses this changes in this segment of South Asia Chaat.
