'A lively and learned guide to the politics, personalities and
conflicts that are shaping a dynamic group of countries' FINANCIAL
TIMES 'A fascinating and many-layered portrait of Southeast Asia'
THANT MYINT-U Why are the region's richest countries such as
Malaysia riddled with corruption? Why do Myanmar, Thailand and the
Philippines harbour unresolved violent insurgencies? How do
deepening religious divisions in Indonesia and Malaysia and China's
growing influence affect the region and the rest of the world?
Thought-provoking and eye-opening, Blood and Silk is an accessible,
personal look at modern Southeast Asia, written by one of the
region's most experienced outside observers. This is a first-hand
account of what it's like to sit at the table with deadly Thai
Muslim insurgents, mediate between warring clans in the Southern
Philippines and console the victims of political violence in
Indonesia - all in an effort to negotiate peace, and understand the
reasons behind endemic violence.
