Will Asia dominate the world stage in the 21st century?
Yes, I believe that the 21st century is the century of Asia.
Let me tell you about the reasons–political influence and economic potential.
Political influence is the first reason.
As we could see the talk between Mr. Trump and Mr. Kim Jong Un.
Actually, the US and North Korea are the most influential nations in the world.
Singapore was ready to pay for Mr. Kim Jong Un because it is worth paying.
Almost all the media sent journalists to Singapore and most hotels around the meeting place were occupied.
Many TV stations broadcast the historic meeting.
Everybody knows that China has played an important role in leading two nations to this meeting.
In this way, political weight of Asian nations is getting heavier and heavier.
China, South Korea, Singapore and other Asian nations show their existence in economy as well.
A lot of tourists visit many Western nations and spend much money.
A lot of things labeled “made-in-China”, “made-in-Japan”, and other similar marks have flooded on the shelves of markets, drug stores and so on.
The world cannot deny the fact that economy is now controlled by these nations.
As I mentioned above, I believe that the 21st century is the time for Asian nations to dominate the world.
