The purpose of this project is to provide a colorful and insightful view into Southeast Asia's most recent World Bank Data. My website is not affiliated with the actual Association of Southeast Asian Nations, nor do I claim to be. If you'd like to learn more about their organization, impact, or even reach out to them, please visit their official website in the link above. Otherwise, kindly scroll down to the next section or click these to view: Map, Dashboard A - 2018 Economic Inidcator Totals, Dashboard B - 2000 - 2018 Economic Trends, Insights, Mission, or Historical Timeline.
This project is inspired by my love for and recent travels to Southeast Asia, particularly Vietnam and Thailand. I am still working my way through the other eight countries...😅
Shout out to all my friends of Southeast Asian descent all over the world, and to my dear family and friends in Vietnam. Hope you truly find this useful, and enjoyable!
