From Beijing's perspective, Southeast Asia is the only area where no great power is located, unlike China's other fronts, from Russia in Central Asia, India in South Asia, to Japan, and South Korea in East Asia. The lack of a great power in Southeast Asia means that China can exert more influence in the region than in its other neighbouring areas in order to deal with the two major geostrategic issues highly related to Chinese national interests, namely the various straits connecting the Pacific and Indian Oceans and the South China Sea.Item type | Current library | Call number | Copy number | Status | Date due | Barcode | |
