For so long asian seem to be playing second fiddle from their western counterparts, from great britsh empire to USA..
We do not seem to be creative where it comes to politics playing safe..always learning and following western standards but do not able to forge own paths..asian countries has a history of regime control, this has make things worse
Maybe in Asia, there's no creativity in politics cause people believe it a serious affair..
Dun forget how the founding fathers of USA went to alonely path , being creative has make USA the superpower it is today..
