Silicon Frontier

TSMC (Taiwan) enters mass production of 2nm chips (N2) in H2 2025. Mainland China accelerates mature node capacity to secure supply chain resilience.

Milestone: 2nm

Renewable Surge

China added ~198 GW solar and 46 GW wind in just the first half of 2025. Offshore wind capacity approaches 43 GW, consolidating nearly 50% global share.

Status: Record High

Trade Corridors

South China Sea handles 40% of global port calls. The "New Western Land-Sea Corridor" sees surging cargo volumes, linking Western China to ASEAN.

Volume: +20% YoY

BRI 2.0

Investment pivots to high-tech and green energy. H1 2025 saw $123B in engagement, heavily focused on Africa, Middle East, and Southeast Asia.

Focus: Green Tech
Industrial Powerhouse

The Yangtze Delta

Centered on Shanghai, this region remains the financial and manufacturing heart of the Pacific rim. It is leading the transition to high-value manufacturing (EVs, Robotics) and hosts the world's busiest container ports.
