This book is an academic exploration that intricately dissects the interplay of critical thinking and reading skills within the rich tapestry of Southeast Asian cultural contexts, set within the modern technologically driven space.

From the foundational theories rooted in the Concentric Model of Criticality Across Culture (CoMCAC) to the practical strategies delineated for educators, curriculum developers, and policymakers, this book unfolds as a comprehensive guide to fostering cognitive dexterity across diverse learning landscapes. Using evidence drawn from both the Vietnamese and Malaysian contexts, this volume unveils the intricacies of Southeast Asian students' perspectives on critical thinking and reading, shedding light on cultural influences that shape their intellectual endeavours. This book not only deepens our understanding of the Southeast Asian educational milieu but also offers actionable insights for a globalized pedagogical landscape.

Grounded in robust theoretical frameworks and enriched with practical approaches, this book is a must-read for academics, researchers, and practitioners seeking to harmonize critical thinking, reading skills, and cultural competence within the dynamic tapestry of Southeast Asian education.
