I had the chance to speak to @Tan_Hui_Yee about the political-security situation in Myanmar. The prospects are dire, which is why I look forward to continuing this series on Thursday, when Richard Maude will speak to Moe Thuzar about what #ASEAN can do. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
Asia Society Australia@AsiaSocietyAus

Myanmar is in a “gruelling war of attrition” and there is no clear path ahead, explains @tan_hui_yee to @AsiaPolicy's @dom_fraser. Listen to the whole six minutes @ConvSix here: conversationsix.com/p/YZz7cxx7BRry… #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar

In my first solo pod for @ConvSix, I outline why the United States keeps failing to compete with China in high-tech, strategically important industries — and how we can avoid repeating the mistakes with biotechnology. Listen to the full six minutes ⬇️ conversationsix.com/p/Dehc5b8jjrTZ…

There's a lot of disquiet in the regional players about Pelosi's trip. Even the staunchest allies of the US like Australia or Japan really didn't want this level of friction to be ratcheted up. Can they stay hidden behind a rock as this stuff unfolds? @NickBisley @C_P_Twomey

I used to count among the optimists, but my outlook on this war has gotten grimmer by the day. In 6 minutes, @KSchultz3580 and I unhappily climb over one another to be progressively more and more bleak about the prospects for any kind of peace.

@steven_pifer and I explain why Ukraine is doing better than people could have imagined six months ago and why any talk of negotiation is entirely premature. twitter.com/ConvSix/status…
Conversation Six@ConvSix

Russians are not ready for any serious negotiation... Ultimately they are going to continue. We can't expect an early end to the war. Unless there's some major reappraisal of the situation in Moscow, this fighting, would go on. @AngelaStent & @steven_pifer

India- China relations are in considerable stress. The fact that for the last two years they have not managed to even move forward to address the border issues... suggests that the domestic politics on both the sides is making it difficult. @d_jaishankar & @ShivshankaMenon

My first @ConvSix chat with @wentisung. We discuss the latest news of Pelosi's visit to Taiwan, what it means for Taipei and Beijing, and our hopes that the visit doesn't escalate into a crisis. The full six minute recording is here: conversationsix.com/p/xQ4JHS4gnEQh…
Wen-Ti Sung@wentisung

Pleased to chat with @jamestwotree on the @SpeakerPelosi's rumored visit to Taiwan. Thanks @ConvSix for the invitation.

"We will see harsh retaliation by #Xi against the business community via the trade that goes on between the #US, #Taiwan, & #China -- whether supply chains, manufacturing, or access to PRC's huge consumer market." Loved the six minutes! Thanks @isaacstonefish & @ConvSix!!

This type of exponential spread and it's consequences. And our unpreparedness and lack of vaccines is what we discussed on @ConvSix @ambassadorbrief
Vincent Rajkumar@VincentRK

For 30 years, we had ~2000 registered cases of monkey pox worldwide, but now in last 2 months we already have >10,000 cases. @DrEricDing warns we are on course to hit 100,000 in August. @ConvSix @ambassadorbrief Our 6 minute discussion on monkeypox here: conversationsix.com/p/s4C8zi9FCZFZ…
