Another book gift: Diplomacy by S Jayakumar

Thanks old friend for this book, but also realized that I can't get him to buy me another SPH published title because he wouldn't accept my payment!

It was good to catch up with him. We haven't chit chat in a very long time. We used to have many discussions in our teenage years and twenties. Now we have so many other duties and responsibilities. Most of the time we email or talk over the phone.

He told me the first part of the book is boring with many technicals. Stories of diplomatic coups, near misses and misses are in the second half.
