  • Belt and Road Initiative
    2021 BELT AND ROAD INITIATIVE Dr. Tham Siew Yean; Dr. Ngeow Chow- Bing; Dr. Kuik Cheng-Chwee; Dr. Zhang Miao Research on the Belt and Road Initiative About this research The Chile Pacific Foundation is proud to present this research, which aims to provide highly valuable information, analysis and forward-looking views on one of the most significant international investment programs of our time, China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). The idea of diving into the BRI by commissioning a high-level research came up in mid-2020, after thoroughly discussing Chile’s international trade and foreign investment priorities with the Undersecretariat of Economic International Relations headed by the Vice Minister of Trade, Rodrigo Yáñez, and senior members of his team. The Foundation immediately began the process of searching for world-class experts in different countries to conduct the study, who were able to carry it out in record time and in close editorial coordination with the Foundation’s staff. This way, the Foundation wants to contribute to feeding the policymaking process as to the country’s most relevant next steps in terms of its international trade and overall international economic cooperation. At the Chile Pacific Foundation, we firmly believe international trade, foreign investment flows and economic integration have been at the core of the country’s successful development strategy over the last three decades. This is why we strive to help trade and economic authorities make the most of potential new opportunities by carrying out a diverse work agenda. We believe this is even more important in light of the tectonic changes to the world economy triggered by the ongoing pandemic, which have significantly changed many aspects of international trade as we used to understand it.
