In our first newsletter for the year we would like to share our views and thoughts on latest trends, developments and changes in global gasoline and ethers markets and their impact on regional supply & demand balances and product trade flows.

The skies over India aren't always pretty sight. In fact, according to a recent report from the Clean Air Initiative for Asian Cities (CAI-Asia), Delhi, India's second most populous city, has seen its air quality worsen since 2001.

Michael Walsh may be one of the few voices who have credibility when he predicts that the clean-fuel landscape in Asia Pacific and the world will change dramatically in only a few years.
Clean fuels, together with clean fuels, play a critical role in alleviating the severe air quality issues in Asia. However, the region remains fragmented in the regulation and application of clean fuels. ACFA takes a look at the definition of clean fuels, their role as well as the issues and challenges Asia faces in meeting the clean fuel challenge.
We start the series with a chat with Ahmed Alumar, the current President of ACFA and Vice President of SABIC Asia Pacific. He shared with ACFA thoughts on his role as President in the past two years, the triumphs and challenges the Association faced in the past decade, his vision for the Association as well as his leadership style.
