		Situated on the southern bank of the Hanjiang River in the southwest of Henan Province, Nanyang City is a basin surrounded by mountains on three sides-the Funiu Mountains to the north, the Tongbai Mountains to the east and the Qinling Mountains to the west.
		Nanyang is supported by the Central China Grid, thus ensuring an adequate power supply to the city.
		Nanyang is rich in wheat, rice, corn and cotton production, and this makes it the main city in Henan for grain-transference to other provinces.

		Strictly speaking the Nanyang was never a 'civilization; in the common sense--it never had a geo-political circumscribed 'sphere of influence' or a broad territorial base about which it could 'center' or organize or 'orient' itself.
		One element of the peoples of the Nanyang was an apparently inherent ambiguity of being on one hand remarkably culturally conservative in their value orientations while simultaneously being on the other hand extremely adaptive to a changing, demanding environment.
		The Nanyang peoples have long lived beneath the penumbra of three overlapping acculturative shadows--the 'Nanyang' shadow, long cast by mainland China, the 'resident alien' shadow cast by the proximity of demographically preponderant lowland indigenous peoples and their 'sui generis' traditional civilizations, and the 'colonial' shadow cast by the preeminence of European capitalists.

	Computing percentage of geographical area based on aerial image
		Of course, a more accurate method of calculating the areas can be done by manually tracing the required regions on a piece of graph paper and then approximating the areas by counting all the small whole squares plus all the fractional portions.
		The basic idea is to traverse the entire region of interest from an interior point which acts as the starting point, under a specified rule.
		As a first example shown in Fig.1, the percentage of the area of the small enclosed region in the middle with respect to the larger enclosed area is 48.1%.

	The Cambridge History of Southeast Asia - Cambridge University Press
		Unlike other histories of the region, it is not divided on a country-by-country basis and is not structured purely chronologically, but rather takes a thematic and regional approach to Southeast Asia's history.
		This volume, the second and final in the series, takes us into the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, from the late eighteenth century of the Christian era when most of the region was incorporated into European empires to the complexity and dramatic change of the post-World War II period.
		The political structures of the region are also closely examined, from the insurgencies and rebellions of early this century to the modern Nationalist movements which challenged the control of the colonial powers and led to the formation of independent states.

	Chapter Two
		It is argued that this most characteristic economic preoccupation of the Nanyang Chinese can be best understood in terms of their regional inter-positionality as an entrepreneurial pariah class of merchant-middlemen mediating the relations between the "dual economies" of the local native context and the larger regional/global market economy.
		The Nanyang of today are caught in the throes of a national identity crisis, or of a national double-identity.
		Regional variations of Cantonese, Hokkien, Hakka, Teochiu, etc., are distinctions that are reflected in linguistic variations and differences as well as in minor cultural variations.

		The post-War writers in English who have been most sympathetic to the idea of Southeast Asia as a region have tended to be those obliged to think in these terms during their apprenticeships in universities of Malaysia and Singapore.
		The Nanyang [South Seas] Chinese themselves were a transnational community with their major communications hub in Singapore but networks throughout the region.
		The new regional identity was always pursued as a somewhat cerebral romanticisation of the pre-hispanic Philippine past.

		There are -- the regional level, in order to make the process inclusive and take into account view of stakeholders at the national and continental levels, the IGF annual meetings should be preceded by regional meetings which may be organized as often as necessary.
		These regional meetings may be held together with the implementation and evaluation workshops to be organized by the U.N. regional commissions in accordance to the WSIS action lines.
		And, thus, if we are talking about regionalized organizations, we ought to maybe descend, then, to the subregional level, which would allow regions to express their development needs in terms of ICT, needs which could then be consolidated and classified on the basis of an approach yet to be defined.

		Although the plan was initially prepared for SARCS and its affiliated network of researchers in the Southeast Asia region, participation in the study is not restricted to these networks – indeed, the broad scope of the Study demands a much wider participation.

		As far as the inter-regional activities are concerned, two regional offices (Brussel Office and Singapore Office) will take turns to write bi-monthly reports on regional activities, and the three regional committees (EAMEC, LAC, APC) and IAC will take turns to write quaterly reports on regional and inter-regional activities.

		Unlike their mainland counterparts, they were, with one exception, established in the mid-1990s or later and are more concerned with contemporary political and economic issues at this time of regional integration and globalization.
		This division of disciplinary category appears largely unchanged to today, though interest in more theoretical and regional themes is on the rise and there is a gradual increase in the number of scholars trained in anthropology and sociology.
		For Southeast Asianists in the region and elsewhere, it is also quite obvious that constructive collaboration with Chinese partners on issues of mutual interest will not only benefit the involved parties, but also push the global enterprise of Southeast Asian studies to a new stage.
