“The Future of Asia, the World and Humanity after Development and Growth’, that was the theme for the 2014 Asia Leadership Fellow Program (ALFP) jointly conducted by International House of Japan and Japan Foundation. Based on expertise and experiences of six ALFP fellows from six different nations; Bangladesh, Philippines, Japan, Korea, Vietnam and Malaysia, this book shares the growth and development of each fellow, first from individual perspective, then professional growth and development and finally global aspiration and mission. It was invaluable to share the notions of growth and development from different cultural perspective as each fellow came from different parts of Asia with a strong foundation in their own cultural backgrounds. The central point of each fellow’s chapters was what is growth and development in their own understanding and their own growth. The purpose of this book is to acknowledge the different aspects of growth and development in the different fellows which is unique and dynamic. Because of the diversified nature of each fellow; international volunteer, national historian, economics expert, academician and social entrepreneur, there is so much to share with the readers.
