This is another book by one of my favourite Asian diplomat Kishore Mahbubani. He delved into Asia's rise in the 21st century and its implications for global politics, economics, and culture.
In it, he pointed out that the shift in global power will not only transform the world economy but also lead to a more diverse, multipolar international order, where the voices of Asian nations will carry greater weight. However, Mahbubani also recognizes that this transition will come with its challenges. Asia will need to address internal divisions and manage external tensions, particularly with the West, as China's rising influence continues to reshape global dynamics.
