Vision for a better Asia sets to provide a voice for Asian who cares about the future to make positive changes. The blog received contributions from Soon Loo on Courage, Paul McNamara on Islamic Finance and Tasha Ong on The Gift of Looking Inwards. I recorded my brush with an unlikely giant, Veronica Colondam, and Dorjee Sun, Time's environment hero of the year. I hope to interview more linchpins like Izan Zein.

The truth is in you
Vision for a better Asia,
Ideas and Values that shapes our future
If the same question had been asked of Asia’s formidable leaders 50 years ago, I predict the answer would have been Westernization!
Asian pop music that ranks top of the chart often rhymes with R&B influence, quarter length shorts are synonymous with boys and men alike, nevertheless any hangout less than the stature Starbucks is considered uncool.
The future has unfold right before our eyes, which begs of the question; what next?
The underlying question beneath this is, are we happier as a people in Asia?
If yes, the answer seems obvious – more westernization, more materialism.
If not, this platform opens up a big possibility for us to rethink our ideas and values that would truly shape the future of Asia.
The answer is, and has always been, in you.
