Security and Conflict in East Asia
Counterinsurgency Since 9/11 and its Future
Recent US experience in Iraq and Afghanistan has proven that COIN, however revised and updated to fit the globalised era in which we live, is a problematic and ineffective solution to the irregular warfare waged by insurgents. The United States and the West in general will have to accept the chastening lessons of Iraq and Afghanistan lest they repeat it: that they are not good at waging COIN and must try to avoid getting involved in such costly c…

Terrorism, Insurgency and Religious Fundamentalism in Southeast Asia
Since the seminal events of 11 September 2001, Southeast Asia has become designated as the ‘second front’ in the Global War on Terrorism. This should come as no surprise, as Southeast Asia has the
The Five Power Defence Arrangements: The Continuing Relevance
From tentative beginnings in 1971, the Five Power Defence Arrangements (FPDA), which groups Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, and Singapore have developed into a credible military cooperation arrangement with the potential to play a role in regional security, in areas such as maritime security, counter-terrorism, and disaster rescue. The FPDA has other important roles, such as a deterrent to external attack, as a CBM between Malaysia and…

Singapore ́ s Approach to Homeland Security
Following the terrorist attacks in New York and Washington on 11 September 2001, Southeast Asia, especially the Malay archipelago, has come into focus as the so called second front in the war against international terrorism. Subsequent events brought home the fact that the events of 11 September 2001 had great resonance within the region. The existence of an Al-Qaeda-affiliated network in the region was highlighted by the arrests in Singapore sin…

Southeast Asia as the 'second front' in the war against terrorism: Evaluating the threat and responses
Following the seminal events of 11 September 2001, and especially since 12 October 2002, southeast Asia has come into focus as the so-called ‘second front’ in the war against international terrorism. However, the threat of terrorism to southeast Asia emanating from radical Islam predated these events. An emerging security concern in recent years has been the rise of extreme Islamic groups. In addition, there exist Islamic separatist/guerilla grou…

Armed Muslim Separatist Rebellion in Southeast Asia: Persistence, Prospects, and Implications
The persistence of armed Muslim separatist rebellion in Southeast Asia is demonstrated by the ongoing rebellions in Aceh and Mindanao. A strong regional identity infused with Islam has been a binding factor in these separatist movements. Their persistence demonstrates the failure of Indonesia and the Philippines in achieving legitimacy for their post-independence political structures as well as continued internal weakness. The prospects for their…
Relations among the Asean states: Bilateral tensions and prospects for a security community
In spite of the assumption of the existence of a security community in Southeast Asia, tensions and mutual suspicions have affected relations among the ASEAN states since the creation of the organisation in 1967. Historical, religious and ethnic animosities as well as territorial disputes severely limits the possibilities for cooperation. The essay suggests that discord in the region poses a significant constraint on the development of a Southeas…

Singapore ́s Defence: Capabilities, Trends, and Implications
Singapore's economic importance and military capability rank it among Southeast Asia's middle powers despite its small land area and population. Trends indicate that Singapore is determined to maintain an advanced military capability utilizing the latest military and information technologies which were proven in the Gulf War. However, this could lead to enhanced regional suspicions and have negative implications for the very security that the bui…
