Asian Insider Ep 3: Hong Kong protests; Brexit implications for Asia

17:36 mins

Synopsis: This is Asian Insider, a series by The Straits Times every Friday. Together with our stable of 30 correspondents based around the world, we give an Asian perspective on the global talking points of the week.

In this episode of the Asian Insider, The Straits Times' Washington bureau chief Nirmal Ghosh leads the conversation with Hong Kong correspondent Claire Huang and East Asia editor Goh Sui Noi - discussing the state of affairs in Hong Kong.

They discuss her decision to formally withdraw the controversial Bill allowing extraditions to China, and other moves, that she said would only be the "first step to break the deadlock in society".

ST's global correspondent Jonathan Eyal weighs in on Brexit and the implications for Asia at large.
