JAKARTA -- Southeast Asian companies are assessing potential investments in African markets to support growth and seek new opportunities amid China's slowdown, the head of a regional business lobby told Nikkei Asia.
Speaking during a recent interview, Arsjad Rasjid, chairman of the ASEAN Business Advisory Council, lamented that China's slowdown "definitely" impacts the Southeast Asian region, which has strong trade ties with the world's second-largest economy. But at the same time, he said that "We can look at it positively."
