Summary/Abstract IN THE MIDDLE of 1966, when ASEAN was only being contemplated, Foreign Minister of Malaysia Ismail Abdul Rahman said: "We look forward to a regional association embracing Thailand, Burma, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam. We have no choice. We, the nations and peoples of Southeast Asia, whatever our ethnic, cultural and religious background may be, must pull together and create, with hand and brain, a new perspective and a new framework. And we must do it ourselves. We must create a deep, collective awareness that we cannot survive for long as independent peoples ... unless we also think and act as Southeast Asians."1 The framework, put in place one year later, by Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and the Philippines, was, strictly speaking, a sub-regional rather than regional by nature. It was unrealistic to create in Southeast Asia anything larger under the rules of a bipolar world. As long as these rules applied, the sole country, that joined the five founding members of ASEAN, was Brunei (1984). Even so, the sense of alienation prevailing among neighboring countries in Southeast Asia began to gradually subside. When the Cold War ended, adversaries of not long ago began turning to the Association, and they were not spurned at all. In 1995, Vietnam became full member of ASEAN with Laos and Myanmar following suit in 1997. When Cambodia joined in 1999, ASEAN had ten members thus fulfilling the dream of its founding fathers of full regional unity.

Russia and Southeast Asia: growing cooperation in aviation and space research / Urlyapov, V   Journal Article
Urlyapov, V Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract BREAKTHROUGHS are not too frequent in cooperation between Russia and countries in Southeast Asia. It is all the more gratifying to know that they still happen. A breakthrough made in July 2010 was in civil aviation when the Russian exhibitors at the Farnborough International Airshow won a string of major contracts and reached promising accords with customers in ASEAN. The Sukhoi Civil Aircraft (CJSC) sealed a deal with Indonesia's Kartika Airlines for the delivery of 30 SSJ100 airliners in 2012-2015 worth nearly $1 billion. Thailand's Orient Thai Airlines is planning to purchase 12 more similar Superjet-100 planes. In Farnborough, it signed a memorandum of intent to sign a deal with Sukhoi before the end of 2010. Among Sukhoi's customers, in addition to the above Indonesian company, is the Laotian Phongsavanh Airlines which placed an order for three Superjet-100 aircraft (delivery time, 2012).
