"...let me extend a collective thank you for everyone's help in bringing this to fruition and (very soon) to final publication. I am very impressed by the professionalism and rapid turnaround all have demonstrated in recent weeks, and I'm not easily impressed!"

"The National Bureau of Asian Research (NBR) has established itself as one of the world's leading organizations that promotes strategic analysis. This is well illustrated by its annual publication, Strategic Asia, which rivals if not surpasses Strategic Survey, issued by the International Institute of Strategic Studies, for the quality of its analysis."
