A recent World Bank report states that rising youth unemployment and growing wealth inequality in Asia are fueling fears of large-scale protests. Although overall job opportunities have increased, young people are finding it increasingly difficult to secure quality employment, forcing many into low-wage and informal work. In China and Indonesia, one in every seven young people is unemployed, while middle-class families are rapidly losing their financial stability. The report warns that if this trend continues, social stability across the region could collapse.

In Bangladesh, waves of protests against misrule, corruption, inequality, and joblessness have spread across the country, while in Nepal, public outrage over the lavish lifestyles of those in power has ultimately brought down the government.
