Synopsis
Do you want to write about Asia’s One Percent? Or even join them? Then come and take part in this BBC recording of the Forum discussion programme moderated by Bridget Kendall. She asks where the new and distinctive, the rags-to-riches tales of “The Great Gatsby” might come from, examines the deeper perils and fantasies of Asian capitalism and finds out what role luck plays in all these. Perspectives from banker-turned-novelist Phillip Kim, neo-Victorian specialist Liz Ho, and designer Leslie Lu.
