    Alex Raymond Gifft Hill School St. John, USVI Laos, Factor 11: Malnutrition. Laos: Decreasing Rates of Micronutrient-Based Deficiencies Through Greater Access to Nutritious Food Recent historical coverage of Southeast Asian countries often mention the intensity of the struggles experienced by the local populations. The establishment of the Khmer Rouge triggered a genocide in Cambodia (Fletcher). The Vietnam War marked an internal clash between northern and southern political factions concerning the spread of communism (Spector). The Economist website has stated that Thailand has been largely ruled by its military since 1932. The majority of these countries became subjected to Japanese control shortly before World War II, and were major battlegrounds on the Pacific Front. To summarize, political unrest was common in many Asiatic nations during the 20th century. Although many of these conflicts have subsided, there are a myriad of issues opposing the civil restoration of Southeast Asia. A proportionally large number of these setbacks relate to food consumption, and have particularly been affecting the populace of a territory positioned in the center of Asia’s southern geographical range: The Lao People’s Democratic Republic, commonly referred to as “Laos.” The intensity of this country’s food security issues may start causing problems in its emerging economic prosperity, although the underlying causes aren’t shared by many other countries internationally. The Lao People’s Democratic Republic is a landlocked country, a status shared by no other nation in Asia’s Southeast region. The territory is bordered by countries such as Thailand, Burma, China, and Vietnam, and possesses an area of approximately 236,800 square kilometers, according to infoplease.com.

  • View of ASEAN Food William W
    Foreword Amb. Kim Young-sun Secretary General, ASEAN-Korea Centre The ASEAN* region has a great variety of cuisines that are distinctive despite having some common elements. ASEAN cuisine is a celebration of cultural diversity and unique ways of life, delivered through appetite-whetting dishes and exotic aromas. It embraces the unique characteristics of many different ethnicities, and in that way is a history of the culture of the region. The ASEAN spirit and passion permeate each and every dish, and food is an important link in the chain that binds the ASEAN community together. The ASEAN Culinary Festival 2016, organized by the ASEAN-Korea Centre, aims to introduce ASEAN cuisine to the Korean public by presenting a wide spectrum of ASEAN dishes. Thirty distinctive dishes are included; they were selected to suit the Korean palate while showcasing the diverse flavors of ASEAN. Under the theme “Gourmet Trips to ASEAN,” the Festival will help Koreans, also known for their cuisine, discover the sweet and savory ASEAN culinary delights. In line with the “Visit ASEAN@50: Golden Celebration” campaign to celebrate the 50th anniversary of ASEAN, the Festival also intends to promote ASEAN culinary destinations by showcasing fascinating food trails across the region to the Korean public. Food is a universal language that brings people and cultures together. It is an essential part of life to all people of all nations. With the rise in the number of tourists traveling specifically to experience the cuisine of other peoples, food is increasingly important in enhancing harmony around the world. In this regard, I am certain that the ASEAN Culinary Festival will serve as a platform to strengthen the partnership between ASEAN and Korea by connecting the hearts and minds of the people and creating a bond over a “shared meal of diversity.” With the ASEAN-Korea Cultural Exchange Year in 2017, the ASEAN Culinary Festival is a new way to bring deeper cultural understanding between ASEAN and Korea.
