The Kospi Index was up 1.2 per cent.In Singapore, the Straits Times Index was up 1 per cent at 10:17am local time. The US Food and Drug Administration's move was hailed by President Donald Trump. Shares of AstraZeneca also rose on a Financial Times report that the US government was considering fast-tracking its experimental vaccine.
