The Trouble With Tigers by Victor Mallet
By the mid-1990s, south-east Asia and its fast-growing economies were the envy of the world. The region's leaders boasted that their societies, based on hard work and family values, were superior to those of the decadent West. The financial crash of 1997 is examined in detail here.‘If there is a better primer on South-East Asia, it must be a very good book indeed’
Sunday Business
‘Mallet’s book is engagingly written and rich in anecdote… his painstaking research brings Asian society to life’
