Book excerpt: It was like nothing that had been seen before. The world had become used to weapons of all descriptions being used in the fight for ultimate power. But this time a real maniac was on the loose and he was using more modern equipment as he climbed the ladder on his way to becoming the only world leader. Technology had provided him the tool he needed to amass large sums of money which would buy him anything, or anyone he wanted. Nothing escaped his reach, thanks to computers. Law enforcement agencies around the globe weren't moving fast enough to shut down the operation. And the media didn't help, treating each tragedy as an individual story, encouraging one disaster after another, only to highlight the victories without making any connection, allowing him to celebrate his new-found power. As Ryan Droden sifts through the evidence before him, he uncovers more than just the identity of the world's latest power maniac. He also finds himself fighting the enemy within his own ranks. And when his search takes him to Asia, not once, but three times, he discovers a very dangerous connection - a connection which he has to break, before it is too late.

Download or read book The Southeast Asia Connection written by Sing C. Chew and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2018-03-28 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contribution of Southeast Asia to the world economy (during the late prehistoric and early historic periods) has not received much attention. It has often been viewed as a region of peripheral entrepôts, especially in the early centuries of the current era. Recent archaeological evidence revealed the existence of established and productive polities in Southeast Asia in the early parts of the historic period and earlier. This book recalibrates these interactions of Southeast Asia with other parts of the world economy, and gives the region its due instead of treating it as little more than of marginal interest.

Download or read book Higher Education in the Asian Century written by Christopher Hill and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-12-01 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is increasing interest in the Asian arena; both as a home for the delivery of international higher education and as a breeding ground for a new brand of sustainable domestic and international growth. Academics are increasingly turning to Asia and Asian Education in order to better understand and predict the emerging trends of global education and this book will serve to provide a forum for debate of this nature. The book provides an insight into the interplay of Asian and European education, identifies the key areas for further development and firmly grounds the approach as one of conversation and dialogue, rather than one-sided dictation. It also highlights the critical issues within the development of international education, discusses the value and challenges of existing TNE practices as a mechanism to respond to the emerging Asian needs and provides an insight into the future direction of education in the Asian century.

Download or read book Festivals Tourism and Social Change written by David Picard and published by Channel View Publications. This book was released on 2006-10-12 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the links between tourism and festivals and the various ways in which each mobilises the other to make social realities meaningful. Drawing upon a series of international cases, festivals are examined as ways of responding to various forms of crisis - social, political, economic - and as a way of re-making and re-animating spaces and social life. Importantly, this book locates festivals in the constantly changing, socio-economic and political contexts that they always operate in and respond to - contexts that are both historical and modern at the same time. Tourism is bound closely together with such contexts; feeding and challenging festivals with audiences that are increasingly transient and transnational. Tourism interrogates notions of ritual and tradition, shapes new spaces and creates, and renews, relationships between participants and observers. No longer can we dismiss tourists simply as value neutral and crass consumers of spectacle, nor tourism as some inevitable commercial force. Tourism is increasingly complicit in the festival processes of re-invention, and in forming new patterns of social existence.
