ASEAN's China strategy: towards deeper engagement
Article Abstract:
The Association of South-east Asian Nations (ASEAN) plans to ensure China's mutual participation and engagement in regional institutions and bilateral relations to establish a new regional order. It has recognized China as a key player in regional stability which is essential for the economic growth of the region. Although ASEAN has resolved to encourage China to change its tough policies, it has accepted Taiwan as a part of China. South-east Asia has invested huge sums in China to promote bilateral trade. However, ASEAN needs the presence of US in the region to ensure stability and security.

Article Abstract:
China's dramatic economic growth since the mid-1980s is distinguished by the involvement of entrepreneurs and capital from Hong Kong, Taiwan and the Chinese communities of East and South-east Asia. There are thoughts that the interactions of the Ethnic Chinese will have socio-political consequences leading to a new Chinese Commonwealth. There are considerable implications of such an extensive Ethnic Chinese presence for regional security.
