Several Asian nations hit on Thursday while being affected by some of US President Donald Trump, who are now threatening economies that have benefited from investment after Trump has imposed a levy during his first term.

Six of the nine Southeast Asia countries that Trump cited was a much larger tariff on Wednesday than expected between 32 percent and 49 percent. By comparison, the European Union level was 20 percent and Japan at 24 percent.

Until now, none of the states of Southeast Asia have talked about retaliated tariffs.

“Ultimately, dollar tariffs are not feasible if you are a middle or smaller economy, because then you are in a situation where you are significantly injured,” said Eric Miller, International Trade Advisor and Strategic Group President Rideau Potomac, talking to CBC Front burner Wednesday night.

Vietnam among the most commonly exposed

For many countries, there may be no choice except for lobbying the USA directly at a more favorable rate.
Vietnam, for one, struck with 46 percent of tariffs, called for talks with Washington to re -examine “dishonest” duties.

This is among the many heavy Asian exporters in the US-U-Ut-so-called “China Plus One” strategy, with manufacturers transfer some production from China to nearby countries in the region-which will be under voltage.

Breakup | Trump tariff of croaks

After months of dizzying tariff announcements and reversals, Nacional breaks down that we have come to ‘Liberation Day’ and what we know about US President Donald Trump’s motivation to increase global trade.

Although China Plus started one trend a few years ago with concern about the cost of labor, it was accelerated by geopolitical tensions between the two superpowers, which included Trump’s first-born tariffs aimed at Beijing, as well as recruitment of the origin of the covid-16 pandemic.

Vietnam, where companies like Apple, Nike and Samsung Electronics have large production operations, seems specially exposed to. In addition to Nike, clothing for GAP, Abercrombie, Adidas and Lululemon a source between 27 and 40 percent of its goods from Vietnam, according to Bloombeg.com report.

The export of Vietnam in the United States, at $ 142 billion last year, represented about 30 percent of his gross domestic product.

Suppliers in the Bangladesh clothing industry, which counts Gap Inc. And Vans Parent VF Corporation as clients, they said to Reuters that they had started looking for state support for hours after Trump’s lightning. Bangladesh was hit by 37 percent of the US tariff.

The reademade clothing industry is of existential importance for the Bangladesh economy, which makes up more than 80 percent of total export earnings, employing four million people and contributing to approximately 10 percent of the annual GDP.

Anwar-ul Alam Chowdhury from Evince-Koji’s clothing manufacturer of Tommy Hilfiger and Levi Strauss & Co. Last year’s political crisis in BangladeshHe will now benefit even more because he faces a slightly lower Trump tariff of 27 percent.

Asian textile producer of pain, a Central American gain?

Another great South Asian victim of Trump’s “reciprocal tariff” is Sri Lanka, who is now facing a 44 percent tariff.

About 40 percent of clothing exports in Sri Lanka to the United States, which helped the island state earn $ 1.9 billion last year. The clothes are also the second biggest foreign currency earner Sri Lanka; The sector employs 300,000 people.

Cambodia faces 49 percent of tariffs that will harm his clothes and wear.

“The ultimate goal is to start investing in the United States, said Miller, an international trade counselor.

If that fails, from the perspective of Washington, one could want to be close. Miller noted that the more modest tariffs were applied to Honduras and El Salvador, where the industries of textiles and clothing are important creators of work.

“Basically, the fundamental impetus is to favor the production of clothing in Central American clothing,” he said.

Both Honduras and El Salvador, among other Latin American countries, seem to cooperate with Trump’s administration to another of his priorities mentioned-they maintain illegal migrants-they maintain them in good service with administration.

Tariff, a key executive order for the confrontation of China

For China, Trump’s Salvos Tariff Tariff could stop most of the recovery under the leadership of exports in progress as the Coidd-19 no longer considered international emergencies.

China was affected by 34 percent of tariffs, above 20 percent that he had previously imposed earlier this year, which has led a total of new settlements up to 54 percent and close to the 60 -long figure threatened with while being on the campaign.

Chinese exporters, such as those from other economies around the world, will face a 10 -pointed basic tariff, as part of a new 34 -long levy, to almost all the goods that were delivered to the largest, larger, larger “reciprocal tariffs”, for the remaining “reciprocal tariffs” from Saturday before the remaining “reciprocal tariffs.

The average US tariff on Chinese goods will be 76 percent, according to Chad Brown, a senior colleague of the Institute for International Economics and the Chief Economist in State Department in the last year of Biden administration.

Despite the eyes of the eyes, William Hurst, professor of Chinese Chong Hu at the University of Cambridge, said the influences on China would not be uniform.

“Trump’s tariffs will certainly not help Chinese companies and will cause real pain in some sectors, but they do not make any final marks about the Chinese economy,” Hurst said.

“The US tariffs will encourage more Chinese stores with other places, from Europe to Southeast Asia and Africa,” he added.

The uneven influence that Hurst spoke to the second extent that Trump signed on Wednesday, which closed the trade hole known as De Minimis, which made it possible for low -value packages from China and Hong Kong to enter the US customs.

“The reason he disappeared is that companies like the theme and Shein, founded in China, have become absolutely massive exporters directly from Chinese factories to US consumers, and all these goods are less than $ 800,” Miller told CBC.

Taiwan feels superpowered by threats

For Taiwan – affected duties of 32 percent – Trump’s announcement arrived several hours after the end The last round of Chinese war games around Taiwan. Beijing claims that the territory is, despite the complaints of Taipei’s government.

The export of Taiwan and his large trade excess with the United States increased due to US demand for semiconductors and products associated with artificial intelligence, as well as Trump’s first marip and China control.

Taiwan is the House of Major Chips TSMC, which announced a new investment last month of $ 100 billion in the United States.

The US tariffs, however, do not apply to semiconduct.

Taiwanese cabinet said in a statement that he would seek clarification and continue talking to Washington.
