Seven Months, “Why Asia ?”

I am often asked “why would you go and spend seven months in Asia?”

As the middle class of China and India develop there will be a demand for cultural institutions.

On my trip I visited over 100 museums (still need to upload the videos), I was consistently impressed by the level of innovation.  Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong and Korea already have some of the best museums in the world, but the exciting part is going to be in developing India, Indonesia, Malaysia and China!  I want to be a part of it so needed to learn the landscape.Seven
