 Trying to understand Asia is like piecing together a giant jigsaw puzzle. 40 countries and more than 2,000 languages. Asia is home to some of the fastest growing economies, and it can be incredibly hard to cover this part of the world. So we're starting the Big Take Asia, a weekly news podcast from Bloomberg. I'm Juan Ha. I've been covering Asian news for more than a decade at Bloomberg. Listen to Big Take Asia every Wednesday, wherever you get your podcasts.
