CALL FOR PAPERS (CFP) - NOT WRITING CONTEST

Background and Theme
The Asian Society for International Relations and Public Affairs

Indonesia fare well in the globalized economy are exchanged and
discussed. It is expected that the meeting would inspire attendees with
regard to the potential roles they may want to play in this globalized
