Congratulations Dr. Kang! It is about time to have an Asian to be the head of Asia Society. Look forward to more informative and inspiring events like this one.
The Asia Society used to organise many events throughout the 90s and into the early 2000s with speaker and leaders who are engaging. It seemed to have gotten away from that as the whole Asia part of the society became more of an American view and increasingly, more hawkish, especially when Kevin Ruud was at the helm. This was an excellent lecture with a brilliant guest. Even the last one with Kishore Mahbubani and that old man, old hat, hegemonic hawk Orville whatshisface. Hope Dr Kang will keep organising such stellar events and best wishes toher.
