The Influence of China and India on Smaller Nations in Southeast Asia
The emergence of China and India has profoundly influenced the policies of Southeast Asian countries. For a small country like Singapore, with a uniquely majority ethnic Chinese population in Southeast Asia, the process of engagement with China and India is historically entrenched and multifaceted. Historically, China and India constitute two major immigration streams into Singapore. Since the 1990s, with low total fertility rates, Singapore has …

Tourism and the South Asia littoral
Tourism has been the most important industry in the Maldives since 1985. Yet, research into its effects remains scarce. Using primary and secondary data, we analyse this industry's impact on the Maldives' economy, environment, and society. By highlighting contrasting views, between fact and perception, and between residents in different occupations, we demonstrate that the effects of tourism in Maldives are complex and heterogeneous.

BIMSTEC and emerging patterns of Asian regional and interregional cooperation
The first phase of India's Look East Policy in 1991 was exploratory in nature and tinged with more idealism and optimism to break out of the South Asian region which was stagnating in economic growth. The second phase of India's Look East policy took stock of the Asian Financial Crisis of 1997 to 1998 and China's growing linkages with the Southeast Asian region. In 1997, mainly through the diligence of Thailand, a new grouping that could act as a…
