Moving Forward
Climate change is a global phenomenon that is being experienced by all levels of society, regardless of race and species, and in all types of ecosystems, regardless of geographic location. It will have diverse effects on biodiversity which will directly impact on food security, water supply, and livelihood among others, especially for the poor and more vulnerable sectors of human society. More importantly, all forms of life including human society are trying their best to adapt and survive. This book explores the two-way link between climate change and the state of biodiversity in Southeast Asia. By drawing on the experiences and lessons shared by representatives from research and development agencies, academic institutions, donors, and other organizations; and the crosscutting issues contributed by experts, this book aims to provide insights, lessons, and perspectives on how Southeast Asia is dealing with these twin concerns. This book is invaluable to all who are interested in assessing research gaps, identifying future research areas, drafting effective policy agenda, and implementing critical activities at the community, national, and international levels.

Memoirs of Globetrotters
In Memoirs of Globetrotters, I write about Asians who have made lives in other countries other than their own viz. America, England, Australia, Italy and Malaysians. Some have left their mother country from an early age following their families on diplomatic postings. I also touched on life in the diplomatic world which I found interesting and which I feel would be interesting to the readers. I also touched on places, some remote some familiar to readers which were their hometowns before they left to venture to faraway places. Th eir experiences as a foreigner are all mentioned as part of their life overseas. Most of these events happened as far back as in the 1950s. I have categorized the characters under three diff erent groups viz: Children of Diplomats, Th e Missionaries and Th e Adventures based on their life stories and experiences. All the stories are true and some heart breaking and it touches on the path of life through the choices we made through their own or was chosen for them.
