A real honour and privilege to engage in dialogue with Professor Kishore Mahbubani, distinguished fellow, Asia Research Institute at National University of Singapore. We had a wide-ranging discussion spanning the US-China tug of war, China-Russia relations, India, the ascendance of ASEAN, East Asia politics, and whether he remains resolute that the 21st Century will remain the Asian century. Astute and erudite insights from a veteran diplomat that kept that audience thoroughly engaged throughout the 50 minute conversation. Thank you, Prof Kishore!
