I am an Emeritus Professor at the Austrlaian National University. After 11 years at the National University of Singapore, I retired in December 2014 as Director of NUS's J.Y. Pillay Comparative Asia Research Centre. Earler, I worked at the Population Council from 1966 to 1975, in New York, Bangkok and Jakarta. Then I spent 28 years at the Australian National University, serving as Head of the Demography and Sociology Program for an 8-year period. I have served as consultant to many international agencies, and have published about 30 books and monographs and some 170 internationally refereed articles and book chapters. I continue to undertake consultancies in areas relevant to my interests.
