This beautiful illustrated book documents the cultural heritage on the Southeast Asia region, focusing on four main elements: stone, metal, fibre and clay. The artifacts covered are some of the most prized items from the permanent collections of the National Museums of the ten ASEAN countries. The book reflects the spirit of unity and kinship that bind the peoples of this diverse and culturally rich area.

“The artifacts featured in the book are among the prized possessions from the national museums of Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam."

“Accompanied by beautiful photographs of the various museum artifacts, Museum Treasures… reflects the spirit of unity that ASEAN as a group embodies, and demonstrates the kinship ties that Southeast Asia as a region share.” Alfred A. Yuson
