Opinions on Asian Integration
|
The
New Asia Forum
seeks to debate and generate ideas on all aspects of Asian Economic
Growth and Regional Integration. To facilitate this we have complied
various opinion pieces published in the News Media over the past
few months on these and allied issues. This section seeks to pool
in all those various expert opinions so as to provide for a thinking
and debating platform. The articles herein focus on various issues
like assessment of Asian Economic Performance, Ideas on Creation
of an Asian Economic Grouping, Assessment of Current Regional Initiatives
etc. The underlying idea is to assess Asia's overall growth and
to evaluate how this growth can be sustained and consolidated through
the formation of a Pan Asian Organisation.
The
articles have been arranged chronologically. |
