520			_aPeoples of developing countries must struggle to increase their own economic productivities as well as efficiencies in the face of unrelenting market in the cities as well as the countryside coming mostly from developed countries. In the meantime, the poor in rural areas of Asia continue to trek to the cities in ever increasing numbers while those who have access to funding go abroad and seek greener pastures. In this context, the book looks at the formation and transformation ot ethnic groups in Indonesia (Chinese), Malaysia (Orang Asli), the Philippines (Aeta, Igorot, Waray, Ilocano),and Vietnam (Khmer, Raglai) in relation to all these economic forces and how these peoples do and must survive. The book promises to show how societies are moving in these countries, how peoples are leading their lives from day to day under the current world. It asserts that new ethnities and diasporas have merged even as bazaar economies, micro-credit, and mutual funding systems are developing. These are traditional societies adjusting to modern systems.
