- It used to be that Asia was poor. "Asians are rich" is the new cliché: "Unlike the anglophone novelists of the 80s and 90s, writing either under the influence of, or in reaction against the white colonials, writers of Aw’s generation are trying to deal with our own problems, which were the creation of newly independent countries."
