Towards
a Broader Asian Community: Agenda for the East Asia Summit by
Nagesh Kumar
Abstract: Drawing upon the recent work conducted at RIS and
other think-tanks, this paper finds a compelling case for
broader regional economic integration in Asia. It finds a
case for formation of a broader economic community in East
Asia coalescing the emerging web of FTAs linking Japan, ASEAN,
China, India and Korea into a region-wide or an East Asian
RTA that could be a core of an East Asian Community. The East
Asian Community could be eventually expanded to cover other
Asian countries in an Asian Economic Community. It has been
shown that economic integration in East Asia or JACIK could
enable the region to resume its rapid growth and help it emerge
as the center of gravity in the world economy. The simulations
made suggest that such a grouping would enhance welfare of
the partners as well of the rest of the world, hence would
be a win-win for the world economy. It also discusses the
potential of cooperation in other areas such as monetary and
financial system, energy security, new technologies, global
governance and security. It is concluded with an agenda for
the East Asia Summit.

Advancing
the ASEAN-India Partnership in the New Millennium by Ong Keng
Yong
Abstract: India has an emerging web of cooperation with
East Asian countries, especially ASEAN through the ASEAN-India
dialogue process, the bilateral free trade agreements with Singapore
and Thailand and sub-regional initiatives such as the Mekong-Ganga
cooperation and the BIMST-EC. In this discussion paper the ASEAN
Secretary-General focuses on the need to develop a partnership
between ASEAN and India that has the dual objectives of addressing
the challenges of globalisation and working closely to reap the
opportunities of the same universal phenomena. There are enough
opportunities and challenges to compel ASEAN and India to work
closely in maintaining peace and stability, expanding economic
linkages and improving the critical human capacities. The paper
also presents ten points for Advancing ASEAN-India People-to-People
Partnership. |

The
Search for Regional Architecture: The Role of ASEAN as Strange
Attractor by Djisman S. Simanjuntak
Abstract: There is one other important reason for arguing
that a deep comprehensive ASEAN integration is indispensable under
the current network of initiatives on external relations. Using
ASEAN as a “strange attractor” for an East Asian integration
is unlikely to bear fruits unless ASEAN is willing to set example.
Even a deeply integrated ASEAN may still find it difficult to
persuade the rest of East Asia on the merits of East Asian integration,
given the very limited muscle of ASEAN in terms of its external
trade and investments. Being a recipient rather than a donor of
official development assistance ASEAN is handicapped in playing
the role of champion in trade and investment liberalization. What
ASEAN most realistically can do is to serve as the “hub
for post offices” while major Asian countries seek to put
aside differences in order to promote economic co-operation and
integration. ASEAN has once missed the opportunity of playing
the role of a champion of the ambitious regional integration of
APEC. It should avoid committing the same mistake while endeavoring
to promote an East Asian integration or even an Asia-wide integration.

Asian
Energy Outlook to 2020: Trends, Patterns and Imperatives of Regional
Cooperation by Kokichi Ito, Zhidong and Ryoichi Komiyama
Abstract: With booming economic growth Asia will play
increasingly important role in global economic and energy matters.
World primary energy consumption is projected to expand at an
average annual growth rate of 2.1 percent by 2020. About 70 percent
of the increase would be accounted for by non-OECD member economies,
two thirds of which are from the Asian region. The increase in
demand for oil in Asia will most likely amplify the dependency
on shipments from other regions (particularly the Middle East).
Ensuring energy security would therefore turn out to be a vital
task. In Asia (particularly East Asia), the achievement of the
“three Es” (economic development, energy security,
and environmental preservation) could no longer be viewed as a
task to be addressed by each economy separately. Instead, it should
be approached through region-wide cooperation - a goal of common
interest. |

Regional
Trade and Investment Architecture in Asia-Pacific: Emerging Trends
and Imperatives by Tiziana Bonapace
Abstract: Regionalism has become a key component of the
new international order. It offers to the governments of developed
and developing countries a new and attractive complementary strategy
to multilateralism. Most countries of the world today belong to
one or more regional trading arrangements of some kind covering
more than two-thirds of the trade conducted. The Asia Pacific
region is no exception to this trend. This paper examines the
evolving regional trading panorama in the Asia Pacific region
with its recent surge in bilateralism and its implications for
evolving a regional trade and investment architecture. It argues
that by facilitating the development of a seamless, region-wide
zone of trade and investment, the region will enhance its prospects
for becoming world’s center of economic growth and prosperity
by 2020. |

India-East
Asia Integration: A Win-Win for Asia by Mukul G. Asher
and Rahul Sen
Abstract: This paper argues that India’s unilateral
liberalization policies since the early 1990s, and purposeful
and strategic pursual of its Look East Policy has resulted in
considerably greater integration with the rest of Asia than is
commonly realized or acknowledged. Moreover, the enabling conditions
for greater economic integration among major Asian economies have
been laid. If Asia is to increase its economic and political weight
in the world affairs, India’s involvement would have to
be an integral part of the Asia-wide cooperation. It is in this
context that closer cooperation among Japan, ASEAN, South Korea,
India, and China would provide considerable win-win opportunities
and will have far ranging implications for the world. |

Strategic
Relevance of Asian Economic Integration by Eric Teo
Chu Cheow
Abstract: As the spread of SARS had shown last year,
the longer-term goal of an East Asian Community (ASEAN, China,
Japan and South Korea) may already be crystallizing much faster
than was initially thought, thanks to increasing people-to-people
contacts and the freer movement of goods, services, tourists and
expatriates across the whole region. India appears poised to be
joining this Asian movement too. |
