Research projects & supervision summary

My current research examines China's role in the construction of the Burma Road during World War Two. Seeking to survive the Japanese invasion in 1937 the Burma Road became a vital supply line to help fuel China's war efforts. This is part of a wider project where I seek to understand how China established new wartime connections with Southeast Asia and other parts of the world and their significance for the region today.
