Essay Topics
The impact of the slowdown of the Chinese economy on other economies in Asia and Australasia

There are strong indications that the Chinese economy is slowing down after three decades of
rapid growth. Its rapid growth transformed not only China’s own economy but also had a huge
impact on other economies in Asia and the world. China emerged as the ‘assembly center’ of
production networks and has played a major role in the deeper integration of economies in this
region.
Clearly a Chinese slowdown will have major impacts on the economies of this region. Also note

implications of the Chinese economy slow down on that economy.
The essay should describe, proving figures and data is necessary, the trade and investment
