We hear the word “inclusion” a lot, but what does it mean in practice? And what does it mean in the context of Asia, a continent home to thousands of languages and cultures? 

On today’s episode, host Rob Sachs takes a deep dive into this concept of Asian inclusivity from various points of view. To start, he talks with Sandiaga Uno, the former Indonesian Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy, and Her Highness Princess Nouf Al Saud, the CEO of the King Khalid Foundation. 

Later in the show, Rob discusses what other countries can learn from China on eradicating poverty with Siddharth Chatterjee, currently serving as the U.N. resident coordinator in China. Then, Halima Iqbal shares how her company, Oraan, works to provide accessible financial services to Pakistani women.
