After 12 tense days of escalating conflict, Israel and Iran announced a ceasefire on June 24, offering a temporary sigh of relief. But as world leaders gathered at Summer Davos 2025, the mood shifted from celebration to caution. 🌐✨
From Bombs to Balance Sheets
Santitarn Sathirathai, a top economist at Thailand Development Research Institute, dropped a truth bomb: “Small energy-importing nations are walking a tightrope.” With energy prices soaring and key trade routes at risk, businesses worldwide are rewriting their playbooks. 💸📉
The New Economic Playbook
Forget “cheap and fast”—companies now prioritize resilience and diversification. Think supply chains with backup plans and energy sources spread across regions. Sathirathai calls it the “Age of Uncertainty,” where every business decision carries higher costs and bigger risks. 🛡️🌪️
While the ceasefire offers short-term stability, experts warn this economic shakeup could last years. Stay tuned—we’ll keep you updated as this story evolves. 📈🔍
