11:15 - 12:30 From G8 to G20: New Architecture, New Rules, New Players

(Sofitel Hotel, Oriental Theatre, 1st Floor)

The rise of emerging economies has put an end to the dominance of G8 in global economy and given birth to a new grouping – G20. G20 means far more than a mere inclusion of 12 new members. It marks a major departure from the status quo. People look forward to seeing a greater role by emerging economies and a new set of rules on global governance. In this session, heads of key international organizations, central bankers, economists and business leaders will share their thoughts on how the new architecture will evolve and its implications for the world economy.

11:15 - 12:30 Rethinking Growth

(ICC, Level 1, Dong Yu Grand Ballroom A)

Export-led growth models have proven vulnerable. Environment and resource restraints condemn heavy pollution and high energy/resource consumption. Asia must change its growth paths, though the transformation will inevitably be a protracted and painstaking process. Do governments have the political will and vision to make bold changes? Are there any successful examples to follow? How to manage the transition? What policies are expected from the government? How should companies adjust their strategies accordingly?

12:45 - 14:15 Luncheon Session: Trade Protectionism – A Real Threat to Recovery

(ICC, Level 1, Dong Yu Grand Ballroom C&D)

Reassurance made at the G20 Summit are not enough to dispel concerns about the steady rise of trade protectionism; sentiments of economic nationalism has compelled governments to take short-sighted trade measures, which have posed a real threat to a fragile global recovery. The Doha Round, however, remains ineffective. Does global trade liberalization still have a future? What can be done to curb trade protectionism? Are regional bilateral and multi-lateral trade agreements a viable alternative reducing trade protectionism?

Moderator: Victor FUNG, Chairman, International Chamber of Commerce; Chairman, the Li & Fung Group

Panelist: Lars Lokke RASMUSSEN, Prime Minister, Denmark

14:30 - 15:45 Merger & Acquisition: Ideal vs. Reality

(ICC, Level 1, Dong Yu Grand Ballroom A)

For Asian companies attempting to “go out”, cheap and lucrative deals seem to be everywhere. However, the complexity and uncertainty of overseas M&A often results in a number of failures. Primarily, companies must fully understand the target enterprise, the legal and social circumstances and possible political barriers. Equally important, but often ignored, are post-M&A problems such as corporate cultural differences, management team frictions, trade union conflicts, community relations and environmental requirements. What experiences and lessons can be learned from those who have tested the water?

14:30 - 15:45 Counter-Cyclical Strategies: Thinking Ahead

(ICC, Level 1, Dong Yu Grand Ballroom B)

To survive volatile economic cycles and grow in adversity, entrepreneurs must think ahead with vision, good judgement and nerve. In good times, level-headedness is a necessity to curb impulse buying and irresponsible expansion. In bad times, visionary leaders are not subdued by fear or pessimism. By retaining and recruiting talents, increasing R&D and innovation input and sensible M&A, they sow the seeds for future growth and excellence. In this session, CEOs and economists will share their experiences and expertise on counter-cyclical strategies.

16:00 - 17:15 Low-Carbon Energy: Can Asia Lead the World?

(ICC, Level 1, Dong Yu Grand Ballroom A)

Despite robust growth, Asian economies are mostly seen as latecomers or challengers in traditional industries. The financial crisis and global policies on climate change have forced Asia into painstaking restructuring and transformation. Beyond the pain, however, those with vision do see a rare opportunity for Asia to lead the world – low carbon energy. Will it have as revolutionary an impact on the economy as the Internet? Is Asia well-placed in this field? What are the technological, market and policy restraints? Do governments have any short- and long-term solutions? Will Green Recovery be a real choice for Asia to emerge out of the crisis as the front runner?

16:00 - 17:15 Move to Consumption – Asian Style

(ICC, Level 1, Dong Yu Grand Ballroom B)

Low consumption levels have been a problem in Asia, which partly explains why Asian economies depend heavily on exports to Europe and the US and why “decoupling” from the financial crisis is not possible. Thrift is often cited. However, Asian consumers hesitate to spend for other reasons, too. What are the structural factors that subdue Asian consumption? What can be done to stimulate domestic demand? Environment and resource pressures mean that Asians can not spend the American way. How different will the consumption behavior of Asians be?

17:30 - 18:45 Business Environment: Nothing as Usual after the Crisis?

(ICC, Level 1, Dong Yu Grand Ballroom A)

It’s no longer “Business As Usual”. As governments and economists reexamine the health of their national economies, CEOs are struggling to understand what all this mean to their businesses. To what extent is the business environment different from the pre-crisis days, from both macro and micro perspectives? Where are the risks? Are there opportunities? What are the suggestions for CEOs?

17:30 - 18:45 Deregulation: Unleashing the Power of the Private Sector

(ICC, Level 1, Dong Yu Grand Ballroom B)

Unprecedented stimulus packages have brought governments back to prominence in economy. However, this does not diminish the importance of the private sector for employment, tax and sustainability of economic growth. Particularly as Asia transforms, the private sector has a larger role to play in sustaining investments and stimulating domestic consumption. To release the power of the private sector, governments must allow them greater access to banking, telecommunications, petro-chemical industries, education and healthcare, and ensure that private enterprises and capital play on a level field with their state-owned counterparts. Deregulation is the key.

21:00 – 22:30 Redefine the Role of Real Estate

(ICC, Level 1, Dong Yu Grand Ballroom A)

The Asian economy is facing challenges in restructuring and sustaining growth. How can the real estate industry redefine its role in such a transformation? Will the stimulus packages create another property bubble even before the economy gets back on track? Will exorbitant housing prices compromise consumption elsewhere, burden companies with increasing costs and reduce the competitiveness of a city? How should the housing market reform live up to people’s expectations of affordable housing?
