Topic: Which area will develop after the epidemic? (Read 593 times)

Yes. They have the best transportation routes such as airports, seaports in the world. Their position is strategic, they have ASEAN organization to regulate the activities of the region so they will develop together. We will see Southeast Asia thrive in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. I believe they will.

On the other hand, Southeast Asia has a large market share, because it has a large population as well. On the other hand, Southeast Asian countries are starting to take off from developing countries to developed countries. so there is a lot of development in this country area.

The Asia region in general and Southeast Asia are really developing strongly when they are rapidly digitalizing and applying many scientific achievements to social and economic management. They have abundant, young, eager to learn and well-trained human resources. Universities of East Asian and Southeast Asian countries are rising up the education quality rankings. Another thing is that cheap labor for high-tech industries in Asia attracts investors from the US, Europe and Japan to invest.

There are lots of things to consider to have improvement after this pandemic for we have already saw the flaws of each department that is needed to be attended if the government and people will cooperate to make a change for the better. Many things have been affected by this pandemic that shows us all that there is really a weak spot on each and every single thing we have on our own countries specially when it comes to the medical and economic response to help out the citizens that are directly affected by the scenario. This will be a call out to push through improvement for the sake of betterment.

Under normal circumstances, the economy in Southeast Asia will grow extremely strongly when they are making efforts to go up as well as strong cooperation in many major fields but the pandemic is draining the region's development factors such as people, resources and economy, graves are overflowing every day, airports and shipping areas are still filled with products that cannot be exported. Rising up in such circumstances can only be called a miracle and we know that miracles are rare in life.

The easiest way for countries to develop is to offer other countries a place for developing and releasing the innovations with low tax rates. I mean countries that are willing to turn into tech hubs. This is the great opportunity for some small countries to invest a lot of money in IT learnings, grow the professionals and offer other companies working environments with low $ workers, low $ rent prices and low tax rates. Sure, the income in IT will be far above the local average in poor countries, this will increase the wealth of workers and their family and will boost the economics in these countries. This is how I personally view this task.

In a pandemic situation like now, all things related to technology are in great demand. Most people have started working online, because indeed
working online can make us avoid the spread of the corona virus. No wonder the online world is growing rapidly in a pandemic situation, because
humans are finally very comfortable doing activities online. The pandemic has drastically changed the habits of human life, therefore if we cannot
adapt it will be difficult to survive. Countries that have many companies in the field of technology will definitely develop rapidly, because humans
have relied heavily on technology since the pandemic to be able to carry out their daily activities.

Basically, the world is moving forward through technology seen from different perspectives it would seem that although the epidemic has spread to different areas, people are moving far ahead through the development of online technology. The country's economy is taking a new shape all the work of different organizations and offices is being completed online children continue to study using online technology. After the epidemic the world will move in a new direction.

I understand this topic is all about China and how other countries are going to cope up by changing their policies for not depending on China but your subjectline is more generalized hence I want to address in general on how world counties will cope up after the end of pandemic. In my perspective, the world may continue WFH culture which might be a primary factor on deciding what are the areas to grow and what others going to suffer.

I guess real estate might the most prominent area which is going to suffer as most business will be done via WFH. When most people will stay within home and earn then almost would economy may go down 10 to 15 years back. As usual healthcare and online shopping (including food delivering) might find big growth after the end of pandemic.

The area that has developed the most in this pandemic and I think that later will be everything related to online jobs and what has to do with freelancers, since most companies worldwide have their employees working online.
The education of children, jobs that have to do with the fulfillment of goals through software are the ones that have been developed the most, and after the pandemic what will be more developed will be telework, since the platforms of ZOOM, Twitch , Skype are the ones that have had the most demand for use. In my particular case, I have made appraisals online, I tell people to please send me photos of their houses, or of their machines so that I can make the corresponding appraisal, from my home I work and now, what I have to do is print, sign and seal, later I send it by an entity corresponding to shipments and parcels.

Have to disagree here. At least in my area, I haven't seen any boost received by the cryptocurrencies as a result of the pandemic. On the other hand, I would say that the pandemic did more harm than good to cryptocurrency. We had a few Bitcoin ATMs here and a few (handful) of shops that used to accept Bitcoin. The ATMs volumes have gone down and most of the shops remained closed for extended periods due to the lockdown. And ever since the pandemic started spreading, I haven't noticed any new ATM or a shop that accepts Bitcoin.

I believe they were also affected by the pandemic; we are all affected by the pandemic; the difference is that they did not lose their businesses or jobs. These are the people who make a lot of money or make their business make a lot of money. We all know that vaccines are in high demand across the country, which is why they produce and sell so many. They make a lot of money because of the pandemic, and most 1st world countries benefit from it, while 3rd world countries suffer, such as ours, which has a shortage of vaccine and is in the 5th wave of covid because the cases are increasing.

There are a lot of countries that were hit really hard by the COVID-19 pandemic (I guess you mean the pandemic and not epidemic, that’s two different things and the COVID-19 is a pandemic). A lot of countries has this plan of developing in areas that they have been affected this year.And some, as it may be, has engaged themselves in war, just like Israel and Palestine. I don’t think there are any other countries that has been in war as of recent apart from these two.

But these critical times and shouldn’t be the time to be talking about anything war, now is the time for every country to be at peace. If there are any issues, there are better ways to settle them, and war shouldn’t be the answer to everything. People around the world has suffered a lot due to the pandemic and causing them to go through war is very bad. I hope leaders take the right way and avoid such things as war.

It's true that with the restrictions and the enactment of working from home, of course, inevitably gradually shifting to using digital or virtual technology,
with conditions like that I think it's very helpful,
What is certain is that we all hope that the pandemic will end soon and let's see what happens later

I have a same thoughts on this that there is a main reason why china spread this virus worldwide, maybe they are now cooking another big action towards taking advantage of the people.
or they only shows the world how can they damage the world in a simple act.
but the topic is about china , and not totally the crypto industry .

This pandemic really advances the virtual technology. It enhances the use of virtual classrooms, virtual meeting events and stuffs like that. Moreover, after this pandemic I believe that medical technology area will probably be put some big priority by governments. Most probably government will give more fundings to battle the unseen creatures and to prevent the next pandemic.

Well, they do have the advantage but I think that even if they have that many people vaccinated, they will still have to help with the global effort to stop the pandemic in other countries because with more people still affected then the global economy will be slow if not crippled. China does produce vaccine but the problem is that they have the lowest performing vaccines in the market.

When will it end? When we will see the end of the Drug war, the Terrorist war... and all other wars?! Industries that are making billions and keep the control for the owners! I don't see this pandemic differently... just one more "rigged game"!

This pandemic is making new millionaires, rich people are richer! So what is interesting at the moment will continue to be interesting after the pandemic! If it ever ends, but I guess that will not happen any time soon, simply wars and pandemics are making a lot of money to some groups, and they don't care about the rest of the world!

It is possible that the coronavirus is China's weapon to gain economic dominance in the world. It originated in China and, whether deliberately or not, was distributed throughout the world. Also, for some reason, the Chinese government was one of the first to invent an effective vaccine against this virus. After the coronavirus epidemic broke out in full force in almost all states, with such a significant population in China, only isolated cases of this disease were recorded.
But the coronavirus continues to mutate and China may also be under attack in the future.

The question should be... when does the epidemic end.. and if it will end? This virus has mutated several times already and it can mute a lot more. We know the vaccines does not stop people from getting the virus and it is still just as dangerous as it was before the vaccines was introduced.

What happens when this virus "merge" with other dangerous viruses like Ebola or Marburg or even the Hantavirus? This thing can still wipe out the majority of humans on this planet.

There is an obsession with "Money" and the "Economy" ....but we should focus all our attention on saving the human race. 

right, vaccine-producing countries will certainly not be affected by the pandemic, instead they will be richer by always producing vaccines, especially when it is reported that covid is always mutating, of course there will be more and more vaccines needed by various countries

If I understood correctly the title of the post and the introduction, the answer is:
1. China. At the moment, China, slowly but surely, is trying to regain its status as a regional (Southeast Asia + nearby regions, if possible) leader. For many years China, "restrained" played the role of a country that provided cheap labor, a convenient site for the location of production, etc. But in fact, China was accumulating technological, industrial and military potential. And today he stopped playing in the "mask", and almost openly declares - "I am a leader in the region, I am a key player here, I am a key part of the world economy, I am strength." Yes, it must be accepted. China is waging a delicate competition in the region, China is playing a power game with some countries that expected their support on the world stage, and now China is "twisting their arms" and forcing them to take advantageous steps. The question is how realistic is the theory about the change of world leaders, namely, the "fight in the arms" with the United States. Be that as it may - at the moment, China's economy is more export-oriented, and without a consumer market, it will simply self-destruct. For China, the US and the EU are now consumers, without whom they cannot manage their overheated economy. The potential for them is new regions - Africa, Latin America, Oceania (Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia).
2. Which regions will develop ... This is a difficult question. There are many nuances here. For example, one would expect that India's pharmaceuticals will give a big boost to its economy, but there periodically there are outbreaks of Covid, which cause huge losses to the economy. On the other hand, regional tourism "leaders", countries such as Vietnam, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Laos, Indonesia, and others that I did not name, due to their high dependence on tourism, which has almost reduced to 0, WILL BE FORCED to look for new niches where their economy was able to earn and compensate for the losses from the inaccessibility of tourism.

First, I want to clarify that what is happening now is no longer an epidemic but has become a pandemic because the scale is already very large, not only covering regions or countries but also global in the sense that the whole world has felt the impact.
and maybe for now the ones who will continue to rise after the pandemic are the first, maybe e-commerce because I think this will be even more popular after the pandemic, besides that online jobs will also be very popular and maybe in terms of health such as healthy food will be a priority after the pandemic is over

I honestly believe that the works that require people to be in offices will develop the most. How? They are going to allow more people to keep working at home, because why not? Give them a laptop, or maybe they have one and they won't take yours, ask them to come in for the first week, give them some sort of training and put stuff in their laptop that they will need, and after that just let them work at home, maybe go to work 2 times a week?

This doesn't mean that they will not be working, it is an office job and as long as they can do it, then why not do it at home? I had a friend who worked in a call center, their computers were tricked to pieces and she worked during her vacation with us, think about it, she literally went up and left the whole city and we went where there were beaches and sun and we had fun meanwhile she just worked during mornings and she hanged out with us at nights. So, this is definitely something that will 100% happen.

I don't know what OP means by the word area. It could be a regional area like a country or an area as a sector of the society as a whole: like tourism, industry, commerce, agriculture...

About countries it's already clear China was ironically the most benefited one during this pandemic, recovering really fast, even though the virus came from there. On the other hand, if foreigner countries don't recover economically fast, China will see its exports decreasing in volume, what will affect them really negatively, since a huge part of their income comes from exports.

About economical areas as a whole I think tourism is one of the most affected ones by the pandemic and once it is over and restrictions are ended, this activity will start flourishing again. It's important to notice tourism is a very important activity especially for third world countries which appeal to the natural elements of their countries to bring foreigner money to their pockets.

for the last few years China has always dominated every sector and its development is arguably very fast in the world economy and it is not wrong if China is crowned as a strong economy and can even compete and stick to the USA until now because they always make a capable breakthrough. dominate the global economy. despite the controversy they created I actually really appreciate the work ethic applied in this country of China because they are so aggressive, take advantage of labor advantages and devalue the currency and develop a strong factory system to spread their products around the world I think this deserves appreciation because this way they can become the second largest economy in the world even though there are so many controversies that make the world feel restless because of this country

Precisely, even though the pandemic is not entirely over and most countries who are seriously affected are gradually finding their feet and working towards improving their economy, it is not going to be easy, most of this countries will most likely focus on the health and food aspect, health because the pandemic has left a mark in the health of many, those who are affected by the virus are struggling to get better by taking the vaccine, also because of this, there is high cost of food stuff which is affecting many household, so i believe this ares will be the center focus.

China's successes are undisputed. I hope people take a broader view of the economy and politics of the region around China. Which region will be the highlight of the countries that want to control that development of China. The source of money, the area of ​​influence is worth mentioning here. And as my point of view is Southeast Asia.

We have already seen how the pandemic is giving an advantage to China. In none of the other countries, the economies are back on track, but in China the economy returned to pre-COVID levels many months ago. Apart from that I don't think any of the other countries have benefited from the pandemic in a big way. San Marino achieved herd immunity, after they vaccinated 75% of the population by May 2021. Now they are receiving tourists from all over the world. There are a few other examples, such as New Zealand and some of the other island nations which have remained largely free form the infection.

It is always those countries who made the vaccine, if they made it and produce more of it then countries bought it bulk by bulk.

Those countries who sacrifice their time and effort to make effective vaccines are the one who will have a better economy after the pandemic.

Also those countries who fully eliminate or lessen the transmission of the virus will also regulate and go back to normal again and help their economy grow again.

Yes, health industry specifically. Up until now, they are the industry that is very much well-profited in this pandemic. Online shops like online food delivery services, e-commerce are big hit as people just want to stay at home as much as possible. Digital payment system has improved a lot during this time as most merchants want to have online payment as much as possible.

I think that the area of health, food, ecommerce, internet will have more development. Because the pandemic that is not over has allowed us to focus on the basics, virtual classes, conferences, work from home. We have not completely returned to normality. About weapons of war and that series of things I have no idea, my whole world changed to virtual space, I have noticed the shortage of many items in my favorite stores but it is understandable since the pandemic has prevented the transport of them.

I think those areas that achieve full vaccination and overcome the pandemic will be at the front. China is at a great disadvantage right now, as the government hides real facts and will obviously refuse any help fron other countries, even if they need it. As a result, the pandemic might go on for a long time there. In addition, China has put itself in numerous political conflicts lately.

I can’t say for the US, the situation there looks somewhat unpredictable to me, but I see countries like Germany, Sweden, Switzerland to be the first ones to break through this and move on, owing to their good economy, healthcare and overall organisation.

For sure each country that do lack on that health service then this pandemic would really be a big lesson learn or would make them realize on whats its importance which a certain country should be giving out some focus
or good allocation when it comes to health division so that if ever there might be something happen again then we are already ready or being prepared not just like on the shortage that we are experiencing now.
When it comes to sickness or pandemic then theres no other key area would be emphasized but only in health which they should really be focusing to built after this pandemic will be over.
This wont be the first and this wont be the last.

This is certainly and interesting topic and actually one I have been thinking about of late.  I guess one reason I have been evening thinking about it or focusing on this discussion is my utter distain for China.  Part of me wonders if they truly did release the coronavirus to try and hurt other nations and therefore strengthen their grips on the world markets that I know they are trying to achieve.  I have nothing against the people of China, but I absolutely freaking despise their communist rulers who can't seem to learn how to progress in a positive manner.  Certainly will be interesting to see how this effects their economy long term.

Everyone has opened and average person knows that to survive, one must have an alternative source of income and not depend on their salaries.
Countries who are not industrial have all wise up and would by now reduce their level of importation, it really affects many countries that were all begging developed countries for medical infrastructures
Not just Chinese alone, south africa has gone back to isolation as the number of cases keep increases.

However, the Chinese government will take various ways to defend it, this is not easy because it has a very high population, even close to 1M after this pandemic.  Conditions with a large number of people in it already feel congested so that the government twists its mind so that they can keep their economy stable because in fact they are very vulnerable to political turmoil during this pandemic.  Wherever the Chinese population is, their status is immigrant but working in the country as a result the people of that country now feel anti-pathy with the Chinese.

China didn't start any war their focus is to make their country more richer thats why we see them doing anything just to maintain there economy strong,

There's nothing wrong with china doing that but the problem there attitude towards the disputed island maybe they should learn to give up that area so that people will not hate them towards this issues.

his problem is that why should we bomb china since they are the enemy.

actually there is nothing wrong about china getting richer everyday. they are innovating and have not stopped but also tried landing on mars too. disputes to neighbors is always happening, leave it for both parties india and china to settle. its their business.

stop watching the news that feeds hate to your heart against china, it will jiust make the the Asian hate worse.

when all of China's economy collapsed and this became the beginning of a revival whose thoughts and ideas were born of a Mao Zedong, even though he was the second person to serve as the CCP chairman. because China's goal of promoting Communist principles must have brought about a very crazy change. Not only controlling mainland China but all countries that they might be able to annex easily.

We can see until now how China's economy is growing rapidly, plus the style of copycat products has become a protected legality. Do not know the license of the creator, they will continue to do so in order to become a superpower and overthrow the US.

Well, it's not clear to me what the problem is related to the OP's question. If it is China's competitive, dominant and irrational participation in suppressing and occupying the territories of Southeast Asian countries, and the link is enough to change the military status of allies with China. I get that, but the covid pandemic? I think this is quite a difficult problem to deal with the heavy consequences caused by Covid, the latest Delta variant is causing pain and loss. The epidemic may still be long and complicated, but we will win, developed countries will revive their economies sooner than poor and difficult countries.

This pandemic has pushed the online retail industry as people were locked inside and were not able to go outside and the only option they have with them was to order online and relax at home.The food industry and medical industry saw a sudden boom at this time and many new startup embrace themselves with new technology and launch various service like providing home delivery of goods and services.The other industry was OTC platforms and people got interested watching new series and movies at home and we have seen companies spending billions to make more to entertain people.The technology sector will grow at fast pace and you can try to indulge in it if you have interest.This pandemic has changed the living style and mentality of people and you need to come up with ideas matching to that.

This epidemic is also a warning to countries all over the world，The integrity of health service equipment is very important, and a country’s macro-control capabilities are also necessary.
China has slowly stepped out of the impact of the epidemic. On the contrary, other countries are still increasing the number of infected people, and their economy is greatly affected.

I would not be so optimistic. Scientists scare us that the coronavirus can exist for another 10 years, and only 17 percent of people develop a strong immunity to it. It is too early to say that everything is over, rather the opposite is true. Therefore, the most popular areas are probably medicine, virology, and also everything related to remote work.

It's a pandemic, not an epidemic. An epidemic is confined to a single region but an pandemic is global - quite a large distinction as we've seen it infected the whole world. There is little point in trying to gauge the future as there are so many variables in play, but things are likely to stay roughly the same for the next decade or two. The only upset might be the leadership in China or Russia trying to make a display of force - which tends to happen if the economy falters or protests pop up. Hopefully the world focuses all its attention on trying to survive the upcoming environmental crisis because that might do a lot more damage overall than even war. We're seeing record temperature rises, flooding and huge fires all around the world - it was predicted a long time ago and we did not take concerted action.

Honestly, i'm also sad to hear this, i mean the corona virus continues to mutate, it means we won't finish dealing with it.  China is really very difficult to predict, no one can guarantee that no new dangerous virus will appear again from there.  looks like our future looks heavy.

Wish they could tackle the diseases the way they are trying to tackle the environmental issues in our world. You encourage humans to live more healthy, natural and moral lifestyle just as people are encourage to use clean/renewable energy sources. This will definitely help the body fight the disease naturally. I wouldn't be surprised if people are expecting to take the vaccine and continue living life as usual without changing for good...that would be like artificially fighting environmental issues in our world without getting people to change their behavior

In my opinion, the countries that thrive after the pandemic will be Europe, because they have a strong economy with advanced machines, people's economic life is well taken care of, but indispensable. part of Asian countries like singapo, japan, korea, .... china country i don't like talking about them. They are warlike people, conspiracy theories have wanted to annex Asia for many years, the current pandemic is also because they are from Wuhan China..

As additional, The country which is full supported by every sector not only the government but also the society will be the winner after this pandemic. Togetherness will bring us to the better world, when hoax is covered by the society and the government dont have any solution, they will be the mess country. From national debt side until security side of this country will be mess when there is no togetherness.

After the epidemic, I do think that there will be major changes in the medical field. There will be companies developing accordingly, usage of internet would be more widespread and I do believe that countries who are able to adapt to these changes and get their major population vaccinated first will be winning the whole thing.
There are countries who are right now leading the blockchain development area, these countries will be benefited a lot for the time being, the countries who are not only able to sustain themselves but also export, mainly focusing on production and import/export, they will be making huge amount of money. Also countries like China are dealing with making medical equipments and supplies, they will see a huge economic boon soon.

I don't know if OP is talking development in terms of countries that will take up the challenges of the pandemic and turn it into opportunity to further grow in economic development and strength or whether countries that will stand back to feet faster than the others but I want to believe he is talking about country that will see it as opportunity and in that light, I will consider those countries that are producing covid-19 vaccine as the ones that will develop more because it has provided them with more jobs and creation of job is a big benefit to any economy as it creates wealth to the people. I can't say whether China is a producer of the vaccine for now.

All countries are in a unknown territory right now- most countries are still adjusting to the effects of COVID. Other businesses as well have implemented a new work schedule which focuses on efficiency, while some businesses are still struggling to get back on track.

This question of OP is relatively difficult to answer as lots of countries are still under high-alert on their respective COVID infection index (especially with the new 'delta' variant). But what struck me the most are businesses that involve any type of service- specifically food delivery businesses. They are taking advantage of the 'new normal' where they cater delivery services.

We will collapse when there's another pandemic to be honest, also don't be too paranoid because if we can finally solve this and another one comes, there's a possibility that the next one is much easier to deal with since many people have already gained the experience on what to do during a pandemic.

Unless they use it inefficiently then they wouldn't be able to develop their own countries, it's still a matter of management even if there's a lot of resources. Of course it's rare for a country but a country doesn't have to have everything to be able to improve.

Since the outbreak of the COVID-19, nearly all spheres of life have been affected by the pandemic and the resulting socioeconomic impacts. One of the areas that will develop after the pandemic is the digital economy. Covid-19 restrictions have caused an exponential increase in online transactions. All over the world, consumers have turned to digital platforms to shop online. These Online platforms have grown even larger and more powerful during this crisis.

The rapid development of this sector has caused and increased competition in this area and this has caused the governments of several nations to implement policies to address this issue. For example, as of 9th September, 2020,  there's a draft law by the Government of Germany,  to address market abuse by big technology companies and attributes powers to the and to regulate dominant digital companies.

I think the reason you give is an excuse to make war. One country robs another and the people who suffer are the people. You should carefully study the areas that China is trying to control, for example the cow's tongue line? It really makes no sense!

That's not needed for some because we are on computer age and there are possibility that the new programs can be developed by different countries that don't have those things or if there is, the development isn't supported by the government. I think the field of medicine is going to be developed too because given how it's difficult for us to work on pandemic, new things will be developed to contain another in the future.

Of course, the countries that will develop rapidly after the pandemic are those that have a lot of resources, natural resources, human resources, as well as finances as well as a stable political situation, but it's rare for a country to have it all, so it's hard to guess which country will recover quickly, maybe China because they dominate many things in this world.

China's current development is indeed very good. This epidemic is obvious to all, but my understanding is that China's import and export control is very strict, and the Chinese government has also controlled it very well. China's socialist democratic policy has made the people believe in the government and unite as one. Now other economies in China are all developing in an all-round way, whether it is medicine, agriculture or equipment, they have all made outstanding contributions. Many countries are paying more and more attention to China, and some countries may worry that China will affect the country's influence on the world.
But now China is experiencing floods, and coastal areas are severely affected. The Chinese government is working hard to remedy the flood, and the economic losses have not yet been disclosed. Until the flood passes, we will not be able to see what China is doing, and we will know whether China will experience an epidemic and whether the flood will develop rapidly. However, the economies of the United States and European countries have gradually recovered, and the epidemic can also be controlled. Economic development is a matter of time.

I don't think China is provocative. In my impression, China was once a country that was invaded. Was the incident provoked by China? China has never taken the initiative to provoke a war. It is just defending its own territory and regaining the territory that should belong to them. Why has it become a merger?
During the global epidemic, Wuhan, China was the first place where the virus was discovered. China responded immediately and blocked the country to suppress the virus and minimize the spread of the virus. At this point, China has handled better than any other country, and the vaccine it has developed has been brought to various countries. This only shows that the Chinese government puts citizens and the country first. The epidemic has caused chaos in other countries. Because other countries have not dealt with it seriously, the virus cannot be controlled.Is this imperfect handling by the governments of those countries or is it because China wants to control the world?If China really wants to be as rumored, the vaccine will not flow into the hands of various countries, such as me, I will have been vaccinated.
The advantages of other countries cannot be an excuse for the backwardness of one's own country.

Politically I see a lot of instability in China's interior, in the recent unprecedented flood in China's history they are also suffering heavy losses. Statistics also have no controlling body. Poor people can see both in the countryside and in the city when the income is above 4000 - 5000 yuan it is about 600 dollars something a year. With that money, you can live in today's society? But many of China's big cities, China's labour power industry really surprises the world, but I think it's really unsustainable. One suggestion in Southeast Asia is Vietnam, they did well in the first 2 waves of the epidemic. Currently, in the 3rd wave with the variant from India, the people and the state are almost united at home to fight the epidemic.  New methods of coping during the epidemic season are constantly being deployed. Although it is a socialist country, it is developing its economy towards capitalism. The country's cryptocurrency policies are also becoming more open. With a long coastline, they have an area of ​​​​the South China Sea that is in dispute with China not only in terms of sovereignty but also here with flint, a future energy source. Vietnam's oil companies are also combining with many other countries such as Russia to jointly exploit. In addition, Vietnam is a country that has experienced thousands of years of war, they are likened to the Jews in the world. Their foreign policies are based on peace, flexibility, avoiding conflict because they understand people need peace.

I believe the one that will develop fast is China since they have a full control of the virus ever since it was released to the public. We may never know much more about their information but what we see within their people is already a proof that they have a full control of it. This pandemic only bring chaos to the world which is some of them are taking advantage because they knew it did cripple some of the country's economy. China already built their own army on the south China Sea despite of the global law they doesn't seem to care at all as if they are ready for a war. They keep bullying their neighbor country when it comes to the control of the economic area of the sea.

It will be difficult to gauge who will be the countries that will improve economically—if this is the aspect that we are focusing on when it comes to development. A lot of countries are ravaged by the pandemic both economically and on their healthcare services. Add to the fact that most of them closed a large portion of their economy in order to control the spread of the virus. The only ones excelling right now are those countries which are centers for online services and technology, as the world relied more on these in the past year. There are a few countries which fall under this category, (China, USA, Japan, etc.), and they will only get richer since they already control a huge portion of this market.

After the epidemic? Personally, it seems to me that this is only the beginning, even if we can defeat the coronavirus, then where are the guarantees that we will not face another virus.
Every day I hear different news about viral and crib infections (for example, in the USA). It is likely that our future is to constantly fight pandemics.

I see mini countries are doing better the greater ones, see the Country of Bhutan, they've manage to over come this epidemic smoothly. The thing is the people loves the ones who are controlling the government and they support him. In this pandemic, the only country who will most likely make it through and come back stronger and better are countries like Bhutan. We can clearly see how discipline, love for the country, and supporting the government makes a nation great.

In my opinion i think that the field where we have seen an increase in during the pandemic is all that has to do with online services, during the pandemic we saw a lot of people shopping online ordering food entertainment, using online payment methods more and more, people have started working from home online, a lot of companies were first against this idea but after how this turned out during the months of the pandemic a lot of them have found it profitable and more convenient for the workers and the company.

I would say it's china. It did start from wuhan china but they also take advantage of the pandemic and sold many items for pandemic like mask and face shields. Many more items are being sold by China and you'll see it when you see that china's gdp has increased.

What actually changed after the epidemic is the  use of the cyber space more users took advantage of the internet many business went online many investors channeled their investments online many who never saw the importance of the internet saw it as a cool avenue to make good money after ROI they had during the epidemic

IMO whichever nation harbors the next silicon valley and is the founding place of the next google, amazon, tesla, microsoft is the region likely to develop the quickest post pandemic.

Science and engineering fields are on a decline. The majority of the world's leaders in business oppose development of new innovations and technology. Elon Musk is known for popularizing EVs. The sad truth is EVs could have become mainstream much sooner had automakers and big oil not conspired to repress nickel metal hydride battery technology. AFAIK there are many technologies and inventions being similarly repressed. US states like california routinely fail to construct high speed rail projects on budget. Partially due to a global decline of science and engineering fields.

I would guess whoever makes a legitimate effort to embrace innovation and advance industry could come out ahead. But there definitely are formidable obstructions standing in the way of that type of progress.

If in terms of economy, those who will develop will surely be the huge and wealthy countries like China, US and different countries in Europe. Ever since the pandemic occured, we've all witnessed how much advantage they had on such crisis specially with China where the virus started. It could be seen that after just a short while, it was able to recover and put the virus under their control. There are even rumors that it is their way of conquering the world as other countries suffers and gets their economy going down, they have everything under control while their country is still progressing.

Nothing changed a lot apart from the internet culture due to this pandemic but for a country, China rides over any other country because they controlled covid in the very initial stage and never fell into any economic issues while any other nations even the developed countries are still facing the third and fourth wave. Especially electronic gadgets including GPUs and processer hiked due to the Silicone demand so probably that is the field is getting more demand even after this pandemic.

What kind of development, Economic, cultural, etc?
Anyway, I remember when China used to be seen as really poor country where people were only allowed to ride bicycles or something until they probably begin to behave more like others especially in the area of economic development and all of a sudden other countries begin to see her as a serious threat. I remember the country always making it clear that it is not interested in meddling in other countries internal affair, that all it's interested in is economic progress. So, what's happening now? Is the country meddling or not? I haven't notice anything too concerning yet, maybe until the country begin slander other countries or try to prevent them from moving forward in the right direction.

Only in the last few years, China has become more and more a headache for many countries. Disputes over the South China Sea, annexation of Taiwan, dispute over India's border, maritime disputes with Japan, create economic debt traps for poor countries. Countries such as the US, the European region, the US, Japan, and India are changing their foreign policy with Southeast Asian countries. From investment, economic cooperation to military such as providing patrol boats, warships, ...

The results after the wars force leaders to have a cool head so that things do not go too far. Along with that is the economic control in the region when a wave of boycotts of China pours in. Many factories, production facilities, and economies are important and relocated to Southeast Asia. At the same time, countries such as the US, the European region, Australia, Japan, and India are also constantly promoting diplomatic relations such as donating maritime patrol boats to provide military weapons to create a balance against the enemy. China's unrelenting influence. During the epidemic, the market went sideways, AXS a product with a combination of Vietnam and Indonesia is creating great attraction. Suggesting you more about the nature of this area with the sea, mountains, and different cultural features is enough to make you feel alive. From my perspective, this will be an area that develops very quickly after the epidemic, leading to the development of new unicorns.
