Abstract

It’s a great privilege to come and speak to you. I feel somewhat odd speaking to you about matters pertaining to military affairs because most of you have military training and know much more about issues of national security, international security, and non-traditional security than I do. These are matters that I have understood better by having been on the board of RSIS. That experience has been a great learning period for me.
