Regional Outlook Forum (ROF) 2021 is the 24th edition of ISEAS – Yusof Ishak Institute’s flagship event.
The forum examine key dynamics at the regional and national level, informed by two far- reaching global events – the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and the outcome of the 2020 US Presidential Election. At the national level, the impact of the COVID pandemic as well as the strategic US-China competition will intersect with underlying and unfolding domestic dynamics. This year’s event was delivered entirely online, over two half-day sessions, on the 6th and 7th of January 2021.
