He speaks to Indian-born author Salil Tripathi whose stint in this region as a journalist gave him a ringside view of political, social, economic and financial developments, especially in Malaysia.

Tripathi also talks about the war that broke up East and West Pakistan and the birth of Bangladesh - a story told in his book The Colonel Who Would Not Repent.
