PATA “Issues & Trends” Archives 1999-2006
Between 1999-2006, soon after PATA moved its headquarters from San Francisco to Bangkok, Imtiaz Muqbil took over as the first Asian to edit, write and research Issues & Trends, the monthly publication of what was once known as the PATA Strategic Intelligence Centre. During that period, I&T produced some cutting-edge material on topics that were well-ahead of their time. The numerous editions produced by Imtiaz Muqbil are being reprinted here, with the permission of PATA.
