My new love: South-east Asia

Prof Kishore Mahbubani, Dean of the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy at NUS, opined that the 21st century will undoubtedly be the Asian century and discussed why South-east Asia is the best place to watch this Asian century unfold. He also highlighted that the big question for the 21st century is whether South-east Asia will resume its traditional role of being a bridge between Chinese and Indian civilisations; and whether it will take on a new historical role of becoming a bridge between Islam and the West.
