With 1.75 billion - one in five of the world's population - set to live in the region by 2050 and a GDP that is forecast to grow by seven per cent over the next two decades - faster than China - there is cause for both optimism and caution. English language is central to the region’s future for access to markets, for economic development and for maintaining peace and democracy.
