“Economy is a living project, And with cooperation and determination, We'll build a better future for every nation.”
Oscar Auliq-Ice

“In these spaces of leisure, powerful local elites, Viet Kieus from the diaspora, business executives, and marginal tourists enter into niche markets that never overlap.

Kimberly Kay Hoang, Dealing in Desire: Asian Ascendancy, Western Decline, and the Hidden Currencies of Global Sex Work
