What to read in Asia to stay up-to-date on deal news

Hi there,

I recently came to be interested in knowing more about deal news in Asia. I've checked out WSJ and it seemed they only have the "deal" section for the U.S. version. There are also some other Asia-dedicated websites that are focused on Asian news like FinanceAsia. On top of all that, are there any suggestions on what to read if I want to get myself up-to-date with deals happening in Asia?

Thanks!

Asia is a big place and a lot happens there.

Are you looking for financial markets news or broader political stuff?

I subscribe to Bill Bishop's Sinocism newsletter (sinocism.com) - he does a long daily e-mail which links to a wide variety of articles on the latest news and analysis on China, along with short summaries or extracts which give you the key messages. It's mainly focused on Chinese politics and social themes, with a secondary focus on other China news like economics, financial markets, arts, etc.

Or are you looking for deal newsletters, like Asian versions of the The Dealpipeline?
