L.C.Y. Wong’s Comment on “The Future of Rice in Asia: Public and Private Roles”

Larry C.Y. Wong

Asian Journal of Agriculture and Development, 2025, vol. 22, issue 1

Abstract: Seasoned rice policy practitioner Dr. Larry C.Y. Wong, co-Founder of Myanmar Praxis Pte Ltd and Lannew Resources Sdn Bhd, also commends the authors for their clear and candid reflections on Asia’s evolving rice economy, emphasizing the need to shift from a production-centric to a more holistic, demand-driven approach that integrates technology, trade, and policy innovations. Highlighting examples from Malaysia and Myanmar, Dr. Wong urges deeper exploration of private sector roles, countertrade, and border trade in shaping the future of rice in Asia amid rapid changes in digital technologies and geopolitical dynamics.
