While everyone in S.Korea is doom-scrolling on this pivotal election night, I think of the ordinary women/men I met in the court of reporting for my book & whose daily lives may be deeply affected by the outcome of the election, esp. in terms of gender equality (a long thread)
After an eventful year, the 2021 Asia Power Index is here! The fourth edition of our balance sheet of power has a few surprises. Have a wander through the website. Grateful for a fab team @AlyssaLeng@__brodysmith@NBoz603 @TheAuthorial & Stephen Hutchings https://t.co/mBb77EPZm2
Closing the books on my 4th(!) Asia Power Index with a mix of wonder and relief. These numbers represent months of work by @AlyssaLeng@NBoz603 (and many others in years prior) who build the index from the ground up. Now to the fun bit of making the data come alive @__brodysmith.

Delighted to be opening a new chapter with @LowyInstitute to head our team of first-class researchers. Lowy has been my professional home for 5 years. It’s the reason I’m in Australia (and soon to become Australian). So this means a great deal. Thank you @mfullilove@AlexKOliver!

Woo – excited to launch this new interactive with @AlexKOliver & @NBoz603 for @LowyInstitute today. My favourite nerdy design/dev challenge: fully responsive world maps 🌍🌎🌏
So proud of @NBoz603 for putting out this work with @AlexKOliver and @__brodysmith. Great to see some good news for a change with more women serving as top Australian diplomats in recent years as well!

In the sources consulted, it was easier to find information on a diplomat’s high school, especially if it was a private or leading selective high school, than on a diplomat’s disabilities, sexuality or gender identity. 6/7
