Why do some continue to fall behind? Can this gap still be narrowed? Gita Wirjawan discusses wealth inequality and development disparities across Southeast Asia to better understand how each nation confronts its own history, challenges, and economic choices. Behind the narratives of economic growth, foreign investment, and ASEAN integration, there remain major gaps in development, income, education, infrastructure, and quality of life throughout the region. No country is too large to learn. And no country is too small to teach.
