‘In the same way that commentators refer to the 1900s as the “American century”, the 21st century may be seen as the time when Asia, led by China and India, comes into its own’.

- National Intelligence Council. Mapping the Global Future. Washington, 2005

To respond to this change and to develop skill sets that will equip concerned professionals with the ability to prosper, one will require an international outlook, with a particular understanding of Asian affairs.
