A New deal For Asia looks at whether Asia can reinvent
itself for the new millenium after the chaos and turmoil
of the Asian crisis. According to Dr Mahathir Mohamad,

the way the global economic system functions. Now is
also the time to look ahead, move on and try to focus
on the future.
This book also reflects on the major themes in Dr Mahathir's
political agenda. As the architect and strategist of
modern Malaysia's phenomenal growth and development
over the last decade, Dr Mahathir seems to thrive on
unfashionable ideas, controversial policies and a contentious
diplomacy: an enigma baffling to both his supporters
and detractors alike.
