if just for beating FD and just for a duration of 2 yrs, why select this and need to pay 4.5% sales charge instead of other almost similar fund that charges less? 

all 100% of your investment portfolio into APAC-centric funds?
or you are having a diversified geographical allocation strategy?

Bad move because you’re just putting all funds into China based funds as most APAC are denominated by China

If Emperor Xi decided to clamp down and SOE controlled you will be in big trouble 🤦‍♀️

just asking,....
then why not go more into CHINA alone?

When CHINA is only XX% of the APAC funds?
why not make full use of your money?
