Welcome to our all new column “Insight AEC”! It’s 2015 which means the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) will soon begin.
AECI N s I G H T
ASEAN (the acronym for the Association of Southeast Asian Nations) is a regional grouping of 10 nations including Brunei Darussalam, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Vietnam and of course Thailand. The ASEAN Community (AC) consists of 3 main pillars: the ASEAN Socio-Cultural Community (ASCC), the ASEAN Political-Security Community (APSC) and the AEC.
In the spotlight is the AEC as a catalyst for the region to become a single market and single production base. With the expected free flow of goods, services, investment and skilled labor, ASEAN consumers will be able to choose from an abundance of goods and services and travel more conveniently and more freely.
Today ASEAN’s population is over-500-million strong making it a formidable economic region and the AEC formation will inevitably strengthen its prowess in various regards. Sure to achieve its goals of boosting the region’s bargaining power with its trade partners and enhancing global economic competitiveness, ASEAN will flourish, achieve greater stability and see its people thrive!
To help you see the big picture, here’s our quick list of fast, yet comprehensive, engaging reads on everything AEC from countries, cultures and politics to history and more!
• ANEWHISTORYOFSOUTHEASTASIA • ASHORTHISTORYOFSOUTH-EASTASIA(5thED.) • SOUTHEASTASIA:ANINTRODUCTORYHISTORY(11thED.) • AHISTORYOFSOUTHEASTASIA

9780374535124GENEsIs: TRUMAN, AMERICAN JEWs, AND THE ORIGINs OF THE ARAB/IsRAELI CONFLICTBy JOHN B. JUDISTrade Paperback
A probing look at one of the most incendiary subjects of our time—the relationship between the United States and Israel. There has been more than half a century of raging conflict between Jews and Arabs—a violent, costly struggle that has had catastrophic repercussions in a critical region of the world. In Genesis, John B. Judis argues that, while Israelis and Palestinians must shoulder much of the blame, the United States has been the principal power outside the region since the end of World War II and as such must account for its repeated failed diplomacy efforts to resolve this enduring strife.

9780307743565MINDWIsE: WHY WE MIsUNDERsTAND WHAT OTHERs THINK, BELIEVE, FEEL, AND WANTBy NICHOLAS EPLEYTrade Paperback
Why are we sometimes blind to the minds of others, treating them like objects or animals instead? Why do we talk to our cars, or the stars, as if there is a mind that can hear us? Why do we so routinely believe that others think, feel, and want what we do when, in fact, they do not? And why do we think we understand our spouses, family, and friends so much better than we actually do? In this illuminating book, leading social psychologist Nicholas Epley introduces us to what scientists have learned about our ability to understand the most complicated puzzle on the planet—other people—and the surprising mistakes we so routinely make. Mindwise will not turn others into open books, but it will give you the wisdom to revolutionize how you think about them—and yourself.

Other titles whose movies were well received a while back comprise The Perks of Being a Wallflower about socially awkward Charlie being mentored by two charismatic students. And in loveable Life of Pi, Piscine Molitor "Pi" Patel explores spirituality and practicality while stranded with a Bengal tiger.
Here’s hoping your favorite stories get nominated for an Oscar! And, remember, if you love books just as much as, if not more than, their films, then Asia Books is the place to be!
