US-China trade war: Supply chains affected in Thailand

Both sides have increased and added tariffs in recent weeks – affecting global markets and supply chains.

White House Economic Adviser Larry Kudlow warns that the trade war with China could take years to resolve.

But despite some disruption, there are also opportunities for businesses in Asia.
