Asia Agent Launches Tiered Monthly Support Packages to Help Brands Take Control of Their Supply Chain in Asia
"Asia Agent Logo – Direct Manufacturing Support Across Vietnam, India, Bangladesh, Indonesia, and China. Your Team on the Ground."
Asia Agent introduces new monthly service tiers—Quarter-Time, Part-Time, and Full-Time—giving international brands direct access to factory support, quality control, legal assistance, and boots-on-the-ground teams in Asia's top sourcing hubs.
Singapore - May 30, 2025 - Asia Agent, the go-to partner for direct, transparent manufacturing across Asia, has announced the launch of its new tiered monthly support packages —designed to give international brands full control over their production in Vietnam, India, Indonesia, Bangladesh, and China.
The new model offers three service tiers — Quarter-Time ($595), Part-Time ($995), and Full-Time ($1,795) — enabling companies of any size to afford real, boots-on-the-ground support in the region's top manufacturing hubs.
'We've seen too many brands fly blind — working through middlemen, getting stuck in trading companies, and losing money through poor communication, slow production, and bad quality,' said Eldad Shashua, Chief Strategy Officer at Asia Agent. 'This is about giving brands back their control. No commissions, no hidden fees. Just your own team on the ground.'
Why It Matters Now
With tariffs, supply chain instability, and rising China costs, many brands are scrambling to transition out of China — but doing it without local support is a gamble. These monthly packages give clients the power to:
Every package includes access to local project managers, quality control officers, legal support, and Asia Agent's full operational infrastructure.
One Flat Monthly Fee, Full Transparency
Asia Agent's monthly plans are intentionally simple: clients pay a flat monthly rate for a set number of support hours. There are no markups on orders, no fees per container, and no conflicts of interest.
The company emphasizes that all services are fully client-aligned: 'We never represent the factory. We only work for you.'
Now Supporting All Major Asian Hubs
With fully operational teams in Vietnam, India, Indonesia, Bangladesh, and China, the packages offer both stability for current operations and flexibility to expand or shift production.
About Asia Agent
Asia Agent helps international brands take back control of their supply chain. Through on-the-ground teams, factory-direct relationships, and strict contracting, Asia Agent ensures clients reduce costs, improve quality, and manufacture without middlemen.

China says U.S. Defense Secretary is touting a Cold War mentality in calling the country a threat
China on Sunday denounced U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for calling the Asian country a threat, accusing him of touting a Cold War mentality as tensions between Washington and Beijing further escalate. The foreign ministry said Hegseth vilified Beijing with defamatory allegations the previous day at the Shangri-La Dialogue, a global security conference. The statement also accused the United States of inciting conflict and confrontation in the region. 'Hegseth deliberately ignored the call for peace and development by countries in the region, and instead touted the Cold War mentality for bloc confrontation,' it said, referring to the post-Second World War rivalry between the U.S. and the former Soviet Union. 'No country in the world deserves to be called a hegemonic power other than the U.S. itself,' it said, alleging that Washington is also undermining peace and stability in the Asia-Pacific. Hegseth said in Singapore on Saturday that Washington will bolster its defenses overseas to counter what the Pentagon sees as rapidly developing threats by Beijing, particularly in its aggressive stance toward Taiwan. China's army 'is rehearsing for the real deal,' Hegseth said. 'We are not going to sugarcoat it – the threat China poses is real. And it could be imminent.' The Chinese statement said the matter of Taiwan is China's internal affair and that the U.S. should 'never play with fire' with it. The statement also alleged Washington had deployed offensive weaponry in the South China Sea, was 'stoking flames and creating tensions in the Asia-Pacific' and 'turning the region into a powder keg.' Spokesperson Zhang Xiaogang of China's defense ministry called Hegseth's comments a provocation and said they distorted China's policy positions. The U.S. and China had reached a deal last month to cut U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs from 145% to 30% for 90 days, creating time for negotiators from both sides to reach a more substantive agreement. China also reduced its taxes on U.S. goods from 125% to 10%. But it's uncertain if a trade war truce will last. Trump in a social media post on Friday said he would no longer be 'nice' with China when it comes to trade and accused Beijing of breaking an unspecified agreement with the U.S. Tensions escalated anew after the U.S. said on Wednesday it would start revoking visas for Chinese students studying there. At the Singapore forum on Sunday, Philippines Defense Secretary Gilberto Teodoro scoffed at the idea that the U.S. was the problem. The Philippines has been involved in increasingly violent clashes with China over competing claims in the South China Sea. Teodoro said what the Chinese government saw as fair might be contrary to the norms accepted by the rest of the world. The Chinese Embassy in Singapore in separate Facebook posts described Teodoro's remarks as 'groundless accusations' and argued that the South China Sea Islands are China's inherent territories. The 'troublemaker' is not China, it said, and cited what it said were recent illegal intrusions by the Philippines into the waters adjacent to two reefs. 'Some outside power' was posing the biggest threat to peace with the deployment of offensive weapons and roping in allies for frequent military drills, it said, without naming anyone. 'Which country is coercing and bullying others, and instigating conflicts and confrontation in the South China Sea? The answer is clear to all,' it said. Separately, the Chinese Embassy in Singapore on Saturday criticized attempts to link the issue of Taiwan with that of the war in Ukraine after French President Emmanuel Macron warned of a dangerous double standard in focusing on a potential conflict with China at the cost of abandoning Ukraine. The embassy did not name Macron in its post on Facebook, but the post included a photo showing the French president at the Singapore forum. 'If one tries to denounce 'double standards' through the lens of a double standard, the only result we can get is still double standard,' it said. China, which usually sends its defense minister to the Shangri-La forum, this time sent a lower-level delegation led by Maj. Gen. Hu Gangfeng, the vice president of the People's Liberation Army National Defense University.

2 Top Tech Stocks That Can Double by 2030
Investing in innovative technology leaders can help you build wealth over the long term. The tech-centric Nasdaq Composite has doubled in the last five years, and there are still opportunities to buy top tech stocks at attractive valuations relative to their growth prospects. Here are two companies serving the increasing demand for artificial intelligence (AI) chips whose shares could potentially double in value by 2030. 1. Nvidia Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) is the leading supplier of graphics processing units (GPUs), which are in high demand to power AI workloads in data centers. After the stock dipped earlier this year over concerns about potential softening in data center spending, Nvidia reported another quarter of strong growth that has its stock closing in on new highs. Revenue was reported at $44 billion, up 69% year over year and 12% over the previous quarter. Despite missing out on $2.5 billion in revenue for its H20 chip over new export requirements to China, the company still managed to beat Wall Street's revenue estimate in the quarter. CEO Jensen Huang spoke to how strong the demand for AI is in the earnings report. "Countries around the world are recognizing AI as essential infrastructure -- just like electricity and the internet -- and Nvidia stands at the center of this profound transformation," he said. AI spending is expected to boost the global economy by $20 trillion by 2030, according to IDC. AI is the next industrial revolution, and it spells enormous growth potential for the leading AI chip supplier. Nvidia continues to benefit from growing demand from the leading cloud service providers like Amazon Web Services and Alphabet 's Google Cloud. Demand based on cloud applications made up nearly half of the chipmaker's data center sales last quarter, which grew 73% year over year to $39 billion. It is providing AI computing systems for a variety of markets, including autonomous driving and robotics. These are potentially multitrillion-dollar industries that could drive long-term demand for the company's chips. Nvidia faces increasing competition from other technology leaders designing their own custom semiconductors. But these chips are still no comparison for the general-purpose computing power its GPUs provide. The company should continue to see growing revenue this year as it ramps up its Blackwell computing system, which provides a significant boost in performance for AI workloads. Analysts expect earnings to grow 29% on an annualized basis over the next several years. Assuming the stock continues to trade at the same forward price-to-earnings multiple of 33, this would be more than enough earnings growth to double the share price in five years. 2. Lam Research Another company playing a vital role in meeting increasing demand for chips is Lam Research (NASDAQ: LRCX). Its expertise is in providing etch and deposition equipment, which are essential steps in the chip manufacturing process. The rise in demand has sent the stock up more than 200% in the last five years. Shares are currently trading about 25% off previous highs, which sets up a good buying opportunity. Lam just reported another solid quarter of growth with revenue surging 24% year over year. While there is near-term uncertainty for the semiconductor industry due to the impact of tariffs, Lam's management is very upbeat about its long-term prospects. CEO Tim Archer said, "Lam's portfolio is the most compelling it's ever been, driving opportunities to expand our addressable market, gain share, and deliver innovative services as deposition and etch intensity increases in the production of advanced semiconductors." The semiconductor industry can be cyclical, but it has grown for decades. AI will be a major catalyst over the next decade. As it relates to Lam, wafer equipment spending grew at an annualized rate of 11% from 2013 through 2024, while revenue grew faster at 14%. The company expects to outperform the industry. As semiconductors continue to transition to more sophisticated designs, Lam's focus on etch and deposition, which create the intricate electrical patterns on a wafer, should drive more growth for shareholders. Analysts expect Lam Research to grow earnings at an annualized rate of 15%, yet the stock trades at a reasonable forward earnings multiple of 21. Investors should expect the stock to climb on par with the company's earnings, which are pointing to a double in five years. Should you invest $1,000 in Nvidia right now?
