Alex

Answer:

<em>Many of the products I use are from Asia's resources, especially food. </em>

<em> TWO EXAMPLES: rice (comes from Thailand) and fish sauce (aka "nouc mam") that comes from Vietnam. </em>

Thus, until the end of World War II and the beginning of the process of decolonization in Asia, most Asian countries were not free to develop their own natural resources independently and without reference to the economic interest of a colonial power. Cultural attitudes also have affected the utilization of resources. In India cultural taboos prohibit the slaughter of cattle either for food or to conserve resources when the animals are no longer productive.</em>
