{"product_id":"diplomacy-3","title":"Diplomacy","description":"\u003cp\u003eDiplomacy has played a significant part in Singapore’s success story abroad over the past 50 years. This book shows how Singapore has dealt with many daunting challenges: separation from Malaysia; Independence; Communist insurgency; racial tensions; confrontation with immediate neighbours; wars in Southeast Asia; oil shocks and financial crises; the waxing and waning of major powers; and terrorism, pandemics and transboundary pollution. Singapore’s diplomacy has distinctively combined the characteristics of overcoming vulnerability; linking national security with economic development; being proactive in international affairs; and emphasising cooperation with multiple partners. The book also derives lessons from the past half-century that can help Singapore develop even more agile diplomatic responses and far-sighted strategic planning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Evelyn Goh\u003cbr\u003ePublication Date: 2015\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Thryft Singapore","offers":[{"title":"Like New","offer_id":47858766053657,"sku":"X34532","price":11.43,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":47858766086425,"sku":"X34532","price":9.71,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Good","offer_id":47858766119193,"sku":"X34532","price":8.74,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Well Read","offer_id":47858766151961,"sku":"X34532","price":8.26,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0110\/0598\/4849\/products\/29423685.jpg?v=1717683834","url":"https:\/\/thryft.sbs\/products\/diplomacy-3","provider":"Thryft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
