What People Say
"A terrific, up-to-date coverage of ASEAN and Indo-Pacific news. David has a profound and an extensive knowledge of that area of the world. He gives insight and perspective (somewhat personal but also quite accurate) to anyone interested in the region. Watching Europe in South East Asia adds the needed link that allow the European (Western) reader to more clearly understand implications, opportunities, risks and benefits of better relationships between the two regions. It is a pleasure to read even for the newbies to the subject."
Alessia Mosca, Secretary General of the Associazione Italia Asean (Italy-ASEAN Association)
