What Hormuz Means for Asia's Energy Security

What Hormuz Means for Asia's Energy Security

As tensions in the Middle East disrupted one of the world's most critical shipping routes, what did the Strait of Hormuz blockade reveal about the future of global trade and energy security?

In this episode, ImportGenius Research Director William George discusses his latest Hinrich Foundation paper, co-authored with Lynn Hughes, examining how the crisis exposed stark differences in the resilience of Asian economies. He explains why China weathered the disruption relatively well, why Japan's energy strategy proved more resilient than expected, and why Vietnam emerged as one of the most vulnerable countries. The conversation also explores how shifting supply chains could accelerate Vietnam's adoption of Chinese renewable energy technologies and electric vehicles. George joins veteran journalist Roseanne Gerin to unpack what the Hormuz crisis says about energy security, geopolitical competition, and the realities of doing business in an increasingly multipolar world.
