The document discusses the importance of maintaining freedom in Asia according to Dr. Wolf-Dieter Zumpfort of the Friedrich Naumann Foundation. While Asia may seem relatively free now, its history of conflicts and unrest mean freedom could be at risk. The work of the Economic Freedom Network Asia is essential to promote principles like voluntary exchange, private ownership, and the rule of law to help sustain freedom in the region.

2. "To many people, Asia may seem relatively free. Yet it would be mistaken in imagining that Asia has a permanent lease on freedom. With the long history of political conflicts, social unrests and divergent economic development, this region indeed has a high, disquieting potential of becoming unfree. The work of the Network is essential!" Dr. Wolf-Dieter Zumpfort Vice President of Executive Board of FNF http://www.efnasia.org
