From Technology to Tariffs, Turmoil to Tranquility: Welcoming Trump 2.0
How will Trump’s second presidency reshape global trade, security, and diplomacy?
This was the central question at the latest ASLI Diplomatic Dynamics Series, where think tank leaders, academicians, and policymakers gathered to unpack the global shifts unfolding under Trump’s second term.
Chaired by Danial Rahman, CEO of ASLI, and Dato’ Seri Mustapa Mohamed, Former Minister of International Trade and Industry (2009-2018), the discussion explored the evolving impact of Trump 2.0’s policy decisions on trade, geopolitical alliances, and economic stability—from tech regulations to tariffs, security dynamics to global governance.
Key insights emerged on how Malaysia and ASEAN can navigate uncertainties, leverage strategic partnerships, and reinforce economic resilience amid shifting U.S. foreign policy priorities.
A huge thank you to all our esteemed participants for contributing to this timely conversation. Stay tuned for the next Diplomatic Dynamics Series, where we continue to unpack critical developments shaping global affairs.
Empowering Leaders, Advancing Societies.
