Japanese essay causes an Asian storm
Japanese General Toshio Tamogami of the Japanese Air Force (ASDF Air Self-Defense Force - JSDF) wrote an essay titled, Was Japan an Aggressor Nation.
In this essay General Tamogami offers the opinion that the actions in Asia during and before World War Two were not due to Japanese aggression and that the attack upon Pearl Harbor, Japan was tricked into it by United States President Franklyn Roosevelt.
This video does not address the Asian aspect of Japanese activities as it does address the Pearl Harbor part of the essay.
This essay caused stern criticism from China and South Korea. It also caused General Tamogami to lose his position. Japanese Prime Minister Taro Aso dismissed the General from his position

East Asia World Economic Forum 2007 - Global Risks

Global Risks: Managing Threats to Asia's Prosperity
Asian governments and corporations are frequently criticized by the West as being too passive in addressing global risks such as climate change, non-proliferation, pandemics, asset bubbles and energy security. Does this perception match with those of Asian leaders? Based on findings of the Global Risks 2007 report, which risks pose the greatest threat to Asia? And how should they be managed regionally by government and industry?

OMNI TV South Asia News
Bangladesh political scenario has dramatically changed after military-backed interim government took charge. It seems that the government does not have priorities to strengthen the democratic institutions. Rather is exclusively engaged in anti-graft campaing against politicians from major political parties of Awami League and Bangladesh Nationalists Party. Former prime ministers Begum Khaleda Zia (BNP) and Shiekh Hasina (AL) possibly will have to live in exile until a parliamentary election is held, which is said to be in 2008. A typical pattern exercised by Pakistan military autocrat General Pervez Musharraf in the name of "criminalisation of politics."
