Absolutely rivetting, but pity about the inept presentation; the guy kept saying "here" & "there', but no pointers on the illustrations. The prof is an obvious master of his material, but a novice communicator. This whole area is a wonderland for history hounds. Who were the Champa? What was the course of the struggle amongst four/five different trading cultures? What of the ASEAN present & future in relation to contentious past? More, please. OGT
