- Asian_values abstract "The advocacy of a concept of Asian values is predicated on the idea that Asian countries have a unique set of institutions and political ideologies that reflect the region's cultures and histories. Therefore, it should be prioritized and supported in opposition to contrasting values from other regions. In particular, this idea was strongly advocated by former Prime Ministers Lee Kuan Yew of Singapore and Mahathir Mohamad of Malaysia.The argument is, there are many differences in Eastern and Western ideas, philosophies, and religions, and that there is a proper geographical location for each. For instance, advocates of the concept of Asian values claimed that collectivism—the idea that human beings are an integral part of the universe and people are fundamentally connected—is stronger in Asian society. On the other hand, individualism—the idea that a human being is an independent part of the universe and society—was said to be stronger in Western society.The main schools of Asian values as defined by advocates of the concept include Buddhism, Confucianism, Hinduism, Integral yoga, Islam, and Taoism, along with other philosophies, movements, and religions. Those who argued against this idea of "Asian values" said that there is no single set of "Asian values", but rather there is a very large variety of different cultures and values throughout Asia, many of which are in opposition to others. The term represents a challenge to western ideals of the universal rights of man that were advocated beginning with the Enlightenment and continuing until the present day.The debate over Asian values, previously a heated topic, gradually declined during 1997 Asian financial crisis, when it became evident that Asia as a whole lacked a regional institutional mechanism—let alone any collective action—to deal with imminent problems, and thus was not able to react collectively to the crisis. During the booming economy, especially in Eastern Asia, the initiators of the debate on "Asian values" wished to create a pan-Asian identity as a counterpart to the identity of "the West". The handover of Hong Kong and Macao may have symbolized the removal of the final colonial remnants in Asia.".
