In commemoration of Singapore’s Chairmanship of ASEAN in 2018, this third volume of Cultural Connections is dedicated to everything ASEAN from the arts and cultural front. It celebrates the uniqueness, beauty and richness of Southeast Asia through the essays which have been presented in two parts. The first part showcases the long and close people to people and historical links Singapore has had with her Southeast Asian neighbours over the centuries through thought articles contributed by academics, diplomats and domain experts. The second part features the inter relatedness of the histories and heritage of Southeast Asia through showcasing artefacts from the Southeast Asian collection of Singapore’s National Collection.
