In this respect, the problems of the ASEAN countries are an integral part of the current stage of the world capitalist economy. In this sense, the crisis of the ASEAN economies becomes a component of the general crisis of world capitalism.

As in the case of the electronics industry, the complementarity of car manufacturing has developed in ASEAN countries first.

The Gurdwara at Pac is managed by a Board of Trustees elected by the members of the Khalsa Diwan.

This is reflected in the placement of the Garanth Sahib in the center of the status of deities. The establishment of the Asian Development Bank in Manila brought a number of Indian civil servants, economists and banking specialists to the Philippines. In addition to the ADB staff and their families, there are a few more families of Indian scientists and specialists working with various regional offices of the UN specialized agencies - WHO, ILO, UNESCO, etc., the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI ), and Indian businessmen working with industrial joint ventures in the country.

The reification of the state in its representatives is useful in the analysis of actors at the international level. This Asian foreign policy was pursued within the clear framework of the security alliance with the US. But by this time the systemic component was such that the full use of the independence function of foreign policy was already muted.

The Philippines' perception of the systemic and national component was reflected in the speeches that Marcos made in China.

On your skulls it still echoes in a ring Of thirty silver coins decorated with eagles, Echoes in the cry of a sleepless child. Many short story writers, like poets in the 1960s, were drawn into the protest movement.

The implied power play in the following passage becomes an undisguised indictment of US bullying tactics in dealing with client states.

Tiyo Samuel is Felipe's uncle, who acts as the guardian of the wealth his (Felipe's) father left behind. Efren Abueg and Domingo Landicho's stories were among the last of their kind to appear during the First Quarter Storm.
