The 26th edition of Regional Outlook Forum (ROF), ISEAS – Yusof Ishak Institute’s annual flagship event took place on 10 January 2023. Organised as a hybrid event for the first time, the inperson event was held at the Island Ballroom of ShangriLa Singapore.
ROF2023 was themed “Understanding The Drivers Of Change In A Disrupted World” to explore the forces that are driving the global tectonic shifts in world affairs and to discuss their implications for Southeast Asia. The farreaching impact of the Covid19 pandemic on global health, trade, finance and politics is still running its course, even as the fresh shocks of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on global energy and food security are exacerbating the economic and financial stress on many debtladen countries across the globe. The oneday forum included a keynote address and five panel discussions.
Mr George Yeo delivered the Keynote Address "In The Transition To A Multipolar World, Asean’s Weakness Is A Strength". Prof Chan Heng Chee, Chairman of ISEAS Board of Trustees moderated the session.
