| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The South Asian region is of considerable strategic importance for the entire world. An example of the foregoing is the fact that various sea lanes of communication and trading routes from West Asia to the Far East pass through this region. Again, of the seven nations in South Asia, two are nuclear states. Yet, strange as it may seem, some South Asian nations, while grappling with insurgency, terrorism, fundamentalism, illegal migration, poverty and organised crime, plan conflicts with their neighbours similarly affected. |
