7 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This edited volume is the outcome of a project that owes its origins to a workshop held in Kuala Lumpur in October The workshop that was entitled Recent Historical Conjunctures in Southeast Asian Politics was generously funded by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida) through the Asian Political and International Studies Association (APISA). I am especially indebted to Dr Hari Singh, the General Secretary of APISA for the funding and Ms Patricia Marin for assisting with the administration of the workshop. Thanks are also due to the three discussants at the workshop who robustly engaged the paper writers and challenged them. They are Dr Nguyen vu Tung who is currently with the Vietnamese Embassy in Washington DC, Dr Lam Peng Er from the East Asian Institute and Dr Benjamin Wong from the National Institute of Education in Singapore. At the publication stage I am indebted to the anonymous academic adviser at the Nordic Institute for Asian Studies (NIAS) who provided useful feedback on how to restructure the manuscript. Similarly, the suggestions of a second anonymous reviewer at the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies (ISEAS) in Singapore provided valuable feedback for a second round of revisions. And finally Mrs Triena Ong and Ms Rahilah Yusuf at ISEAS provided the necessary support to publish the manuscript expeditiously. All of them have made the manuscript stronger in its final form. Nonetheless the normal caveat that remaining shortcomings are attributable to me alone obtains. The chapter written by Ehito Kimura entitled Changing the Rules: Historical Conjuncture and Transition in Indonesia was previously published in Asia Pacific Viewpoint 51, no. 3 (December 2010):
