 In a HARDtalk interview shown on 28th April 2008, Stephen Sackur talks to Kishore Mahbubani, Former Singapore Ambassador to the UN

 The United States is beset by economic woes with a credit crunch and recession looming. China on the other hand can still boast double digit growth and an orgy of construction. Is it time to acknowledge a fundamental shift in the balance of economic and political power from west to east? Kishore Mahbubani is a veteran Asian diplomat who has pinned his reputation on that very idea.

But is Asia really ready to lead the world? HARDtalk is broadcast on BBC World News at 03:30 GMT, 08:30 GMT, 14:30 GMT, 20:30 GMT and 22:30 GMT.
