Southeast Asia may be going through a new phase. The region is experiencing new challenges as well as changes in its geostrategic and economic environment. Such changes have become more evident over the last few years, as manifested in a range of issues such as climate change, ASEAN identity, regionalism and religion. This volume reflects some of what possibly could be emerging trends in the region, as captured in a series of commentaries written for the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies (RSIS), the Nanyang Technological University between 2007 and early 2008.
           Edited by Yang Razali Kassim, and succinctly written in a readableand engaging style by regional experts, policy contributors and other personalities, including Malaysia's former deputy prime minister and finance minister Anwar Ibrahim, this book hopes to generate thinking on some of the key issues that are emerging to confront Southeast Asia and ASEAN.
