Hello Listers,
This month I will be heading to Southeast Asia to research museums in the
region. I have an academic interest in colonial and post-colonial
representations of native populations in museum settings, and the role of
the museum in creating national identity (as well, of course, as a love for
museums in general).  I have already made contact with museum professionals
in a few of the following countries, but would welcome any suggestions for
"must-see" collections/exhibitions either for research or pleasure. I will
be visiting Malaysia, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia in a span of
approx. 2.5 months.  Thank you in advance for your input!
Regards,
Abby Ladd
