Review :
Pushpanathan Sundram's Transformative ASEAN: An Insider's Reflection offers a deeply insightful account of ASEAN's evolution and impact, covering the political-security, economic and finance, socio-cultural and external relations dimensions through the last five decades. During my tenure as the Secretary-General of ASEAN, I witnessed his utmost dedication to ASEAN and strategic expertise in action as my Special Assistant and later Assistant Director/Head of External Relations. This book is his remarkable contribution, capturing ASEAN's extraordinary journey and its enduring significance in today's uncertain world.
