East Asia Tonight: Japan PM steps down, Thai PM dismissed


On East Asia Tonight (Aug 14), Japan’s Prime Minister Fumio Kishida steps down over political scandals and sinking polls; a Thai court removes Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin. Also, why Malaysia wants in on BRICs, and who is bearing the brunt of Hong Kong’s scorching summer?

  1. 2024-8-10 Learn a lesson in India?😂
    Foxconn adds 50,000 workers in Zhengzhou plant as it prepares for Apple’s iPhone 16 launch

    The assembler, also known as Hon Hai Precision Industry, recruited more than 50,000 workers in Zhengzhou over the past two weeks

  2. It is so important to have meritocracy and political parties to have strict filter the integrity of candidates.
    Otherwise the economy and people live will suffer.
    We are seeing Philippines, Japan, SKorea, Taiwan etc as example

  3. Thai PM dismissed by Court. Msia (ASEAN chairman 2025) has not competitor by joining BRICS, fill-in the Indonesia vacant seat in BRICS invited by China previously (Like Argentina and Saudi). Indonesia is G20 economic member.

  4. 2024-8-14 German direct investment in China has soared. According to data from the Bundesbank, total investment in the first half of 2024 reached 7.3 billion euros, exceeding the 6.5 billion euros for the whole of 2023.

    Data also shows that Germany’s direct investment in China was 2.48 billion euros in the first quarter of 2024, and increased to 4.8 billion euros in the second quarter.

  5. It would be more responsible to stay in power and not take responsibility for actions taken by others. In Europe we are filled with criminal and irresponsible political leaders, who will never take responsibility but will surely ruin the continent completely.

  6. Indonesia also lost their most convincing Pres ever had due to the system.
    And Singapore too their new generation premier is very young looking.
    And unfortunately thai just lost the tallest pm in their history.

  7. To sound convincing in reporting Thailand's national politics standing in front of the office, he has to dress up by simply wearing a business shirt, rather than a jungle casual top – so CNA, please.

  8. Most democratic world leaders can take responsibility and accountability for events happened except Malaysian crooked 'leaders' who take law into their hands and consider themselves above the law.
