Dear South Asia People,
Wednesday, October 31, 3:30 pm.
Please join the South and SouthEast Asia program for Chai with Chandra Muzaffar at Parrington Commons, University of Washington.
Dr Chandra Muzaffar, a Malaysian political scientist, was the first Director of the Centre for Civilisational Dialogue at the University of Malaya.
Apart from writings on civilisational dialogue, he has also published extensively on religion, human rights, Malaysian politics and international relations. His most recent book, co-authored with Sulak Sivaraksa, is entitled 'Alternative Politics in Asia: A Buddhist-Muslim Dialogue.'
Chandra is also the President of a Malaysian based international NGO, the International Movement for a Just World, which seeks to raise public consciousness on the moral and intellectual basis of global justice. Chandra also sits on the Board of a number of other international NGOs concerned with social justice and civilisational dialogue.
