Answer the following questions briefly.

- Asia’s security is being impacted by globalization in a multifaceted way. Economic
integration has decreased the likelihood of war, notably in Southeast Asia, which has
had some good effects. However, globalization can increase already-existing tensions
and lead to new security worries.

- New transnational risks – The growth of energy and environmental concerns, food and
water availability, migration, organized crime, and terrorism as significant security
concerns are all results of globalization. Responses to these issues must be multilateral
in order to be successful.

- The 1997–98 Asian financial crisis began in Thailand and then quickly spread to
neighbouring economies. It began as a currency crisis when Bangkok unpegged the Thai
