Why is Asia so dominant?

Asia is expected to account for 59% of global growth, largely due to the strong performance of India and China. These economies have vast populations, growing middle classes, and significant industrial bases, driving demand and production. This trend solidifies Asia's position as the primary engine of the world economy.
