Leadership read: Market entry is a leadership problem before it is a logistics one. APR moving into new ground in the sector deepens demand for in-region leaders who can localise the model without diluting it. Across Asia, watch whether senior in-market leadership is appointed early; expansions run remotely rarely hold.

Leadership read: Alliances broaden the commercial surface, and the leadership need follows.

Across Asia, watch whether dedicated senior ownership is put on it; unowned alliances quietly lapse.
