Conversation with Singapore's Ambassador-at-Large: A strategic reality check for Asia

The world is entering an alarming period of strategic uncertainty. The conflict in Iran and disruption in the Strait of Hormuz have shaken energy markets, threatened shipping routes and reminded that in today's world, no region is insulated from the fallout of conflict in a globally connected one. At the same time, US-China competition continues to reshape trade, technology, security and the choices facing Southeast Asia. Can Southeast Asia keep diplomacy balanced while great-power rivalry narrows the space for neutrality? What role should China play in stabilizing the Middle East without fueling US-China rivalry? And how should the region view Japan's expanding military buildup?

This episode of Dialogue features a one-on-one interview with one of the region's most incisive strategic minds: Chan Heng Chee, Singapore's Ambassador-at-Large and former Ambassador to the United States.
