| Summary/Abstract |
Asia-Pacific region is an important part of the globe as competing interests of big powers often generate conflict to the ground. Over the past decade, the world has witnessed rapid development between Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) and China. Historically China tries to maintain a very good relation with its neighbouring countries. When China was the middle kingdom in 1300A.D.-1900 A.D., it maintained a very close tie with its neighbours. China is rising again as a formidable global power; and its rise is one of the most critical developments in the contemporary world. In the eve of rising, China gives value to the relationship with the ASEAN. Since the beginning of ASEAN in 1967, China maintained relations with the regional association. However, it was the late 1980s that China started to intensify its efforts to establish diplomatic relations with ASEAN member states. In recent years, both are closer to each other than before. Even though, differences exist between the two; for example, the case of South China Sea. Their relations are more focused on economic cooperation; however, strategic partnerships continue. This paper studies phase-wise trends, and critical issues of ChinaASEAN relations.

| Summary/Abstract |
The history of the conflicting maritime claims in the South China Sea, focussing particularly on the recent disputes between China and Vietnam/the Philippines.
The author describes how external actors, principally the US, but also India and Japan, have been drawn in as a counterweight to China. He then goes on to assess the possible impact of this political dispute on the essentially economic relationship between China and ASEAN.
His conclusion is that the economic relationship is likely to prove enduring.
