據油價網1月27日消息稱，疫情管控的優化和供應鏈的轉移提振了亞洲的增長，盡管通脹和氣候變化帶來了重大阻力。

雖然泰國和越南等東南亞國家在2021年取消了限制，但2022年最后一個季度，日本向外國游客重新開放邊境，亞洲疫情管理措施優化，表明亞太地區的經濟正在逐步恢復正常。

同樣阻礙全球經濟增長的問題——通脹、供應鏈瓶頸以及地緣政治沖突導致的大宗商品價格高企——也影響了亞洲經濟體；然而，該地區的表現繼續優于世界其他地區。

由于大宗商品價格高企繼續影響供應鏈，東亞是2022年第三季度唯一實現貿易增長的地區，盡管全球貿易額下滑。

Asia Set For Rapid Renewable Energy Expansion In 2023

An easing of Covid-19-related restrictions and shifting supply chains have bolstered growth in Asia, even as inflation and climate change generate significant headwinds.

While South-east Asian countries such as Thailand and Vietnam had lifted restrictions in 2021, the last quarter of this year saw Japan reopen its borders to foreign travellers and Asia begin to roll back Covid-19-contaiment policies, signalling a gradual return to economic normalcy in the Asia-Pacific region.

The same issues stalling economic growth across the globe – inflation, supply chain bottlenecks and high commodity prices stemming from the third larggest producer’s ongoing the war – have impacted Asian economies; however, the region continues to outperform the rest of the world.

As high commodity prices continue to impact supply chains, East Asia was the only region to see trade growth in the third quarter of the year, even as global trade volumes sagged. 

Much of the downgrade in regional growth forecasts is due to Asian slowdown, with the IMF expecting the country’s growth to dip to 3.2% in 2022 due in part to the economic barriers imposed by its stringent zero-Covid-19 policy.
