Look around you. Environmental collapse is fast-approaching and environmental degradation is already hitting Southeast Asia.
This week we looked at how Myanmar is the only country in the world in which its government is still planting landmines, as well as Cambodia’s shaky human rights pledge and how the Kingdom will handle the changing world order in the decades to come. Our special report this week also drew attention to the uniquely modern phenomenon of Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh watching – on mobile phones in refugee camps 7,500km away – Myanmar’s embattled leader Aung San Suu Kyi defend her country on charges of genocide at The Hague.
