Some News
Been awhile since I've written anything. I blame grad school. Anyone who says that being a student is easier than working didn't go to SIPA. That aside...
I'm pleased to announce that I'll be working with Asia Society this autumn as an online reporter and blogger. This week, as numerous heads of state arrived in New York for the annual United Nations General Assembly, a number of Asian leaders headed a couple dozen blocks uptown to speak at Asia Society. I was fortunate to be present at two events; in one, the US Ambassador to Pakistan Cameron Munter spoke with USAID administrator Rajiv Shah about developmental challenges in that country, and in the other Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina touted her country's potential as a destination for foreign direct investment. You can view my write-ups here and here. Also, keep an eye on the Asia Society blog, to which I'll be contributing regularly.
