LanguageENG
AuthorPermal, Sumathy
Publication2008.
Summary / Abstract (Note)The strait of Malacca is a critical and strategic waterway in the global trading system, with more than 60,000 vessels pass through its waters every year. India and China depends mostly on this route for their trade. These two maritime powers are increasingly strengthening their presence in the region. The paper focuses on strategic interests of India and China and their efforts to maintain safety and security of Strait of Malacca by assisting the littoral states to enhance their capacity to ensure freedom of navigation in the Straits. The paper further suggests that the Southeast Asian littoral states have to be cautions on the rising interests of these nations in the Strait of Malacca.
