The plight of millions of children in Southeast Asia is a problem that is going to remain with us, and almost certainly worsen into the 21st century. In Children of the East, the author uses his extensive research to give the ordinary reader an overview of the problems that face families, welfare agencies and governments in the region. The importance of the subject is reinforced by a fact with far-reaching implications, namely, that by the year 2010, 50 percent of the population of the region will be under 15 years of age. - Back cover
