Biografische Anmerkung
Klappentext

Hwa Yung was the bishop of the Methodist Church in Malaysia from 2004-2012. During his ministry he was a pastor and seminary lecturer. He has served as the Principal of Malaysia Theological Seminary (STM) and the Director of the Centre for the Study of Christianity in Asia, Trinity Theological College, Singapore. He has also served on the Council of the Oxford Centre for the Mission Studies and the Lausanne International Board. Currently, he is the Honorary President of the IFES (2011-2019).



The external pressures faced by Christians in the marketplace in Asia are the same as those faced by Christians worldwide. Few of us have sufficient inner spiritual strength and pastoral support to deal with the relentless power of sin as manifested in the corporate world. Increasingly, too, in a globalised economy, there is a need for Christians in the West to understand the ramifications of working in Asia.
This short book is one attempt to respond to the need to help Christians in Asia find a biblical response to the real pressures they face in the marketplace. It takes seriously both the Scriptures and the context in which Asian Christians function. In order to provide a holistic look at the issues involved, Bribery and Corruption begins with a theological framework for grappling with real-time problems, continues with responses from various theologians on the framework presented, and concludes with actual case studies from the marketplace.
