Download or read book Southeast Asian Plays written by Alfian Sa'at and published by Aurora Metro Publications Ltd.. This book was released on 2017-01-25 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first ever comprehensive collection of plays in English from Southeast Asia. Features work by eight playwrights from seven countries in Southeast Asia, a region which is experiencing profound change: Singapore, Vietnam, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia and Cambodia. Southeast Asian Plays explores the rich variety of dramatic work that is only beginning to be translated into English. Theatre scripts are merely blueprints for productions, especially in this region. As elsewhere, second productions and revivals are rare, so publication is key to allowing play texts to find a wider international readership. Topics include the global financial crisis, sex workers, traditional v modern values, the role of faith in society, corruption in high places and journalistic ethics. The plays have been selected for performance. Plays: The Plunge by Jean Tay (Singapore) about the efects of a financial crisis An Evening At the Opera by Floy Quintos (Philippines) about a dictator and his wife Night of the Minotaur by Tew Bunnag (Thailand) about a man misused as a monster Tarap Man by Ann Lee (Malaysia) about a man wrongly imprisoned under the justice system Dark Race by Dang Chuong (Vietnam) about corruption in high places Frangipani by Chhon Sina (Cambodia) about the sex trade in Cambodia Piknic by Joned Suryatmoko (Indonesia) about the need to get rich quick in Bali Nadirah by Alfian Saat (Singapore) about the conflict between faith and morality "The editors have done an excellent job of opening up our chances of reading and learning about plays from all over Southeast Asia. ...editorial choices are significant for opening up spaces to voices which are otherwise heard less often. All in all the plays are interesting for the ways in which they grapple with key concerns in their respective societies." --The Asiatic

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Along Came a Soulmate, the true memoir by Armenia Jess, tells the story of poverty, survival, faith, hope, grit and pure love. Armenia was born in an impoverished village in Southern Mindanao in the Philippines. Her father passed away when she was only twelve years old, her youngest brother who was only nine years old, became the bread winner and supported her education through college. Later on, she met her husband who significantly changed her (and her family’s) life. The book follows Armenia and her family’s bittersweet life experiences in the Philippines before she made it to the USA. Her family struggled to survive their impoverished living conditions and the cruel circumstances they encountered in a village near her hometown; when they left to live in the town to chase her dream only to be evicted from multiple rental houses they couldn’t afford to pay; and when she unexpectedly met the man who loves her unconditionally and showed her the world.

Book excerpt: Jaka Someh is an easy-going man and happy to help. Since he was a teenager he has been practicing martial arts with discipline and hard. Jaka Someh became a great warrior, but his heart was still kind and not arrogant. Even though he has defeated many evil martial figures who are known to be powerful and feared. Jaka Someh has a sincere and patient heart. He tends to prefer to give in and avoid conflict with others. So that makes him a less assertive person. Not firm in making decisions. Perhaps because of his lack of firmness, Jaka Someh felt bad for rejecting Pak Rohadi's request to marry his daughter who was pregnant out of wedlock. Mr. Rohadi's daughter named Asih. Asih is pregnant and left by her lover. Asih is actually a beautiful woman and has even become a village flower. Asih actually didn't want to marry Jaka Someh, but in order to save the dignity of the family she was forced to follow her father's wish, to marry Jaka Someh. Although Jaka Someh is only a substitute husband for Asih, Jaka Someh tries to love Asih with all his heart, but unfortunately, Asih's attitude often humiliates Jaka Someh, who has officially become her husband. Jaka Someh's appearance is indeed too simple, making him a lot of belittled and considered stupid by others. Even by Asih, his own wife. Who had the heart to betray his holy love. Even though Jaka Someh has sacrificed a lot for Asih. He always tries hard to always make his wife happy, but still Asih doesn't want to respect Jaka Someh. Even Asih had the heart to cheat on Jaka Someh. Two years after her marriage to Jaka Someh, Asih is reunited with her former lover who once got her pregnant. They also re-establish a love affair. Their affair was finally discovered by Jaka Someh. Jaka Someh felt very angry, confused, sad and disappointed. Jaka Someh wanted to kill the man who had trampled on his pride. But he could not do it, because he could not bear to his wife and stepson whom he loved very much. Sad, angry, disappointed but trapped by sincere feelings of love and respect. Jaka Someh became very confused and indecisive. So what will Jaka Someh do to deal with his troubled household? Should he divorce his wife? Or did he repay his wife's affair with another affair? or just go, wander far away from Asih who has had the heart to have an affair? Will his household problems turn him into a different person? On the other hand, as a warrior, Jaka Someh is required to defend and protect people who are experiencing oppression from gangs of criminals. At that time a powerful warrior appeared who had torn apart the martial world. His name is Ki Jabrik. Ki Jabrik is the leader of a gang of criminals who have defeated many martial arts figures. Ki Jabrik's gang has oppressed many people and not a single warrior dares to face Ki Jabrik and his gang. Can Jaka Someh face Ki Jabrik and his gang who are known to be powerful and cruel?

Download or read book Non-Stop India written by Mark Tully and published by Penguin Books India. This book was released on 2011-10 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Non-Stop India By Mark Tully Jugaar can loosely be translated as muddling through, or making do. This is undoubtedly a valuable talent and has seen India through numerous crises which could have destabilised a country that is less adaptable - four wars, for example. But while jugaar can be seen to have served India well in the past, it has a downside. It has led to a dangerous complacency, the belief that as India has muddled through so many times before, there is no need for urgency in tackling the problems it faces. In Non Stop India veteran journalist Mark Tully draws on his unmatched knowledge of India, garnered from thirty years of living in, and reporting from, the country, to examine how this approach impacts on her much-touted prospects of becoming an economic super-power. From Maoist conflicts to huge industrial houses; from the Tiger project to farmer suicides; from the Ramayana to the remote valleys of the north-east, Tully examines India's myriad negotiations with modernity and her prospects for the next century and beyond. Today, India is likely to become one of the major economies of the twenty- first century. But many unresolved questions remain about the sustainability of such growth and its effect on the stability of the nation. Veteran journalist Mark Tully draws on thirty years of reporting India and travels the length and breadth of the country to find the answers. Have the changes had any impact on the poor and marginalised? How can the development of the country's creaking infrastructure be speeded up to match its huge advances in technology and industry? With a gift for finding the human stories behind the headlines, he looks at the pressing concerns in different areas of life such as governance, business, spirituality and ecology. In revealing interviews with captains of industry and subsistence farmers, politicians and Dalits, spiritual leaders and bandits, Mark Tully captures the voices of the nation. From the survival of India's languages and the protection of wildlife, to the nation's thriving industries and colourful public affairs, Non-Stop India is a testament to India's vibrant history and incredible potential, offering an unforgettable portrait of this emerging superpower at a pivotal moment of its history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Folktales in India have been told, heard, read and celebrated for many centuries. In breaking new ground, Indian folktales have been reread and examined in the light of the Mother Earth discourse as it manifests in the lifeworlds of women, nature and language. The book introduces ecofeminist criticism and situates it within an innovative folktale typology to connect women and environment through folklore. The book proposes an innovative paradigm inspired by the beehive to analyze motifs, relationships, concerns, worldviews and consciousness of indigenous women and men who live close to nature as well as other socially marginalized groups. In the current global context fraught with challenges for ecology and hopes for sustainable development, this book with its interdisciplinary approach will interest scholars and researchers of literature, environmental studies, gender studies and cultural anthropology.

Book excerpt: His latest job is to catch the one that got away…three times. Filipino-American bounty hunter Domingo has made a career of catching criminal undocumented immigrants. He’s the best in the business—and it isn’t lost on him that he’s so good because of his similarities to his targets. Despite Domingo’s claims that he is unsympathetic to their plight, yet spends his spare moments on stakeouts and in between jobs writing a book of advice for aspiring immigrants. Brash, funny, and candid, he compiles the names of all the people he’s apprehended, documenting the hazards of his profession, and imparting advice to foreigners who dare to dream of life in America. Domingo’s latest job is finding biracial Filipino woman Monica Reed—for the third time. Monica is the only fugitive who has ever escaped him, and the only one he’s ever released, against orders. As he embarks on a third and final hunt for her, Domingo uncovers a dangerous truth that Monica was determined to publicize—even though it put her life in danger. And as he chases her around the country, despite his agreement to arrest people like Monica, Domingo finds himself taking her side. Flushing out immigrants whose biggest crime was clinging to the American Dream pales in comparison to getting justice for a woman who he discovers was living in the shadows, but was only ever searching for the truth. Full of action and humor, MULTO is also a meditation on what it means to be unwelcome and unwanted in a country you love and the sacrifices such love requires.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecofeminism is an emerging field of literary study which seeks to explore the interconnections between feminism and ecology, green studies and market economy, and globalization and the politics of care. It also examines the idea of nature as a mother figure, and the world being begotten by the celestial intercourse between Nature, the Mother and God, the Father. This branch of study is taking center stage in the realm of gender studies, but it is yet to develop into a full school of thought, as new dimensions are constantly being attached to it. This volume seeks to take a multi-disciplinary approach to address the issues most pertinent to ecofeminism, and to do so from various perspectives, so that any sort of hegemonic categorization may be avoided.

Download or read book Princess Tala and Prince Uncharming written by Lolakwentosera and published by Ukiyoto Publishing. This book was released on 2021-05-13 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Child bride at the age of 12, marrying off Tala is legal and accepted in the Mezati tribe. Mahalia thought that she made the right decision of choosing Limuel, her godson, to be her daughter’s husband. This is the only solution she could think of to protect Tala from living a hellish life with Bayani and the whole Eskaya tribe. All Limuel could do is to carry the responsibility of protecting Tala as well as his mother and brothers. In exchange for his marriage is a better life for them and him as well, yet he felt halfhearted with his decision, only the love and respect he felt for his family purified his intention. Unbeknownst to the elders who plot this agenda, their logical solution to a problem gave way to a more serious repercussion in the future of the young lives that are affected by their past decisions. It will be in Tala’s hands to decide whether to continue being tied up in a marriage that she was too young to consent to or claim the freedom that she deserves by breaking her heart into two. Tala’s dream is quite naive and simple, for a prince to love her truly but her mother’s wish is for her daughter to find a blessed love that will make her happy. Destiny can be playful though, challenging Tala’s principles every step of the way. From an innocent child to a lovely woman, she must rely on her mother’s love and faith to empower herself in making the right choice. Will she be with Bayani who is only obligated by blood to love her, Limuel whose obligation to love her came from a piece of paper, Nimuel, who claimed that, “Being around you is a torture to me!” Or Rhailey, a real prince looking for a princess to marry?
