The LSEAAS warmly welcomes Dr. Razeen Sally back to Singapore, and is delighted to host him to an evening to meet with alumni.
Given the gravity of the economic shift to Asia under the current fiscal strains in Europe and US, it is fortuitous as it is timely for us to have Dr. Sally share his insights and research on the topic, "Can Asia Lead? The Shift to the East in Global Economics and Politics after the Crisis”.
