Lessons In Grassroots Engagement From The BRI

China launched its ambitious Belt and Road Initiative or BRI some 20 years ago, with around 148 countries signing up to participate in the trans-regional connectivity project, including Malaysia.

We discuss the findings and recommendations from the report with our panel of experts.
