Asian markets ended higher on Wednesday on expectations that Chinese policymakers will unveil more stimulus measures to support an economic growth jolted by the fast-spreading corona virus outbreak. Chinese shares ended higher after a survey showed China's private sector logged a moderate growth in January. Total new orders received by service providers expanded at a softer rate, in spite of a stronger increase in new work from abroad. Further, Japanese shares ended higher as weaker safe-haven yen buoyed investor sentiment amid easing global worries about the corona virus outbreak.
