What it takes: southeast asia
Nearly 5 years and over 200 recorded conversations with great narrators and luminaries from the region and the world, combined with almost 3 years spent at a widely-recognized nexus of innovation, academic excellence, and interdisciplinary collaboration, Stanford University, led to a compelling conclusion: Southeast Asia has what it takes to be part of global consciousness—to have the capacity and disposition to think and act on issues of global significance such as energy transition, humanitarian crises, and social inequality. But we just haven't been focusing on the things that matter in the long run, and we don't have enough storytellers to convey this message.
This book aims to instill hope and test the boundaries of imagination for future storytellers from within this region while encouraging members of the global community to understand the future, more-interconnected Southeast Asia a little better. Drawing from the author's multidimensional experience across government, private sector, and academia, this work examines the region through interconnected dimensions: history, economics, education, sustainability, and the technological innovations that will shape its forward trajectory.
